Movie Management

BCH compliance

Advanced Management of Data Term Project WS21/22

A simple movie management system implemented in PostgreSQL with a Node.js frontend by Robert Schulz and Lucas Schmutzler.

Interface

Requirements

  • PostgreSQL
  • Node.js
  • A modern webbrowser

Server

The server interacts with the PostgreSQL database and provides a REST API for the frontend.

How to run the server?

  1. Navigate to the servers' directory. cd server

  2. Install the Node.js dependencies. npm install

  3. Create or change the .env file with your database configuration. The file has to be placed inside the server's root dir. The REST API will listen on the SERVER_PORT on localhost.

# .env file
DATABASE_NAME="movie_management"
DATABASE_USER="postgres"
DATABASE_PASS="postgres"
DATABASE_HOST="127.0.0.1"
DATABASE_PORT="5432"

SERVER_PORT="5000"
  1. Launch the server using node index.js or nodemon run The server will reply with 'Server has started on port SERVER_PORT' it successfully launched. node index.js

Client

The client acts as a simple frontend to interact with the database.

How to run the client?

  1. Navigate to the clients' directory. cd client

  2. Install the Node.js dependencies. npm install

  3. (Optional) Create or change the .env file with your server configuration. The file has to be placed inside the client's root dir. The SERVER_PORT specified for the client must match with the SERVER_PORT specified for the server.

# .env file
SERVER_HOST="localhost"
SERVER_PORT="5000"
  1. Launch the client using npm start The frontend will be accessible from the browser at http://localhost:3000/. npm start
