Build Status

The project is currently in it's alpha from. Due to the time constraints. The project was planned to reach a minimal value product just to show case the potentail of final result. Naturally, there is yet a lot of polishinn to be done. However at this stage, all the basic functionalities that would make the website operative and layout an infrastructure for furhter improvement is done. Some functionalities are however partially complete.

Technologies used

The project is developed using MERN Stack Development framework. Due to the fairly larger scale of functionlaity for the project. We were in need of a developement framework that enables us to develop moudles in the backend,frontend and the database, without having to face compatability hassle. We also opted to use typescript instead of javascript since it is more strongly typed which would yeild in a safer code and less time fixing type casting bugs. As for the version control client, Github was our choice as it is very widestream so there would be a very large support base.

Code Style

This section is more about the "architecture" than the code style. For the frontend, the app is following the MVVM architecture, but not fully. In typical MVVM, there should be the Model, the View and the ViewModel. In our case, there was no need for the Model part as the data wasn't large enough that we'd need to cache it in a repository somewhere. The rest of the code was divided into the "Pages" - that resembe the View - and the "Services" - that resemble the ViewModel. The backend, however, was more suited for the use of routes and controllers. They can be similar to the View and ViewModel, but they are a bit more closely coupled. The backend and frontend architectures work hand-in-hand, but they have only 1 way to communicate. The the services from the frontend interact with the controllers from the backend.

Installation

In order to install and run our system first install node.js

Bash install

curl "https://nodejs.org/dist/latest/node-${VERSION:-$(wget 
-qO- https://nodejs.org/dist/latest/ | sed -nE 's|.*>node-(.*)\
.pkg</a>.*|\1|p')}.pkg" > "$HOME/Downloads/node-latest.pkg" && 
sudo installer -store -pkg "$HOME/Downloads/node-latest.pkg" -target "/"

Clone the Repository

git clone git@github.com:alafty/ACML-Project.git

Install dependencies

npm install 

Run the system

Inside the home dierctory for the project run

npm run dev

This command runs the Server and the Front end concurrently. By default, the server runs on port 8000 and the client runs on port 3000. You can change the ports freely by creating a local .env file.

To access the website go to

htttps://localhost|${Local Network IP}:${Client Port Number} 

You can also communicate with the server without the front end on port 8000.For testing purpouses, our developement team used postmam to manage server calls.

Finally, you just need to create and connect your database.
