# env may be "prod", "dev", "test", or NULL. If NULL is passed, it will default to dev.
# If "prod" is passed as the env argument, the shell script will NOT be executed.
# reset may be "create", "reset", or NULL. If NULL is passed, it won't rebuild the DB and tables.
# NOTE: If "create" or "reset" are passed, the DB and tables will be built, wiping out any existing DB and tables.
