About the Project: Encouraging Your Ideas

EiDiA is a platform for file digitalization and collaboration in law and tax firms to solve the issue of inefficiency and intransparency of analog files by providing a central data storage.

It was developed within the course "Software Engineering for Business Applications - Master Course: Web Application Engineering" in the summer term 2020 at the Technical University of Munich.

Running the project

Prerequisites

Install git from http://git-scm.com/. Install node.js and npm from http://nodejs.org/.

Download the project

Clone this repository or download it as .zip:

git clone https://github.com/csehlke/EiDiA.git
cd EiDiA

Install Dependencies

npm install

Run backend

node EiDiA_backend/index.js

This will start the backend on port 3000

Run frontend

webpack-dev-server --open --config EiDiA_frontend/webpack.dev.js

This will serve the frontend on port 8000.

Devstart

To devstart the backend, use

nodemon EiDiA_backend/index.js

To devstart the frontend, use the same command already provided

webpack-dev-server --open --config EiDiA_frontend/webpack.dev.js

This will serve the frontend on port 8000.

Set up your database

Create a new directory where your database will be stored
Start the database server

mongod --dbpath relative/path/to/database

The MongoDB URI should be set in constants.js line 4.

const mongoDBUrl = 'YOUR MONGODB URL';

The database scheme is already set via Mongoose within the application.
To import a user into the database to begin with
- either run
```
mongorestore --db EiDiA-db dump/
```
- or start both the back- and frontend server and then manually insert this object into the EiDiA-db.users collection
```
{
  "username":"admin",
  "password":"$2a$08$JY2Ogc4SY3vTj2BbvfliIeFISQRGtIW4zFfwf8jhT1yEdBmYVO0A6"
}
```
The initial user credentials (should be changed later on in the UI) are
- username: admin
- password: admin

Optional: Build frontend

webpack --config EiDiA_frontend/webpack.prod.js

After building the frontend, you now have a new folder in your EiDiA_frontend directory:

dist - contains all the files of your application and their dependencies.
