The project is split in two parts:
- the first part is the back end all back end scripts are saved in this folder
- the second part is the front back all front scrips are saved in this folder
It's a project front/back-end service, for communicating between this services, we created an API (back side) allowing to send and receive request.
For running this project, you have to already installed NodeJS. If isn't the case you can download it at download nodejs
For the front service, we use the React library, more explication how add the library to your project react getting started
☝️ Note: this project use mongodb, but you didn't need to install mongodb and create a database. Because the database is already host on a external server
- Start the API the api is coded in node js you need to execute this command :
node docs/js/back/api.js
- Start the front part Now the back-end service is launched, we need to launch the front by this command :
npm start find-the-best-deal/src/index.js
Theoretically, when the front is launched, a web site page should be opened with the front service project
☝️ Note: the deals can change with the time. You can refresh the database of deals, just in loading the script update-discount-fork like this:
node docs/js/back/update-discount-fork.js
