Currently its a project in progress, aimed for learning and practice.
Requirements
- docker-compose >= 1.25.3
- node >= 10 LTS
- yarn
Development environment
- build docker containers
docker-compose build - run the docker-compose environment:
docker-compose up - run database migrations in different window
cd backend
yarn
yarn db:migrate - frontend is available at
http://localhost:8081/ - adminer (mysql management) is available at
http://localhost:8082/- user: root password: example - frontend tests (requires docker-compose up):
docker-compose exec frontend bash -c "yarn test" - backend tests (requires docker-compose up):
docker-compose exec backend bash -c "yarn test"
Technologies
- Node.js 10 LTS - backend
- React.js - frontend
- MySQL - database
- Docker - container
What is implemented:
- register user
- login user
- change user name (not login)
- list user files
- upload file
- delete file
- change file description
- compression job runs every 1 minute to zip files in the database
- list files for all users
What would be next steps:
- add file/redis caching on the backend for files retrieved from the database
- improve responsiveness on the frontend
- write snapshots tests for components
- add flash messages for success, failure for every action
- move compression job to separate docker container so backend service is independent and can be scaled
- change from cron to queue worker so there is no need to wait one minute for compression cron
- add more integration tests for API endpoints
- add more logging on the backend side
- move db query logic from backend main.js to service/model
- improve handling of big files - currently it fails because of max_allowed_packets error
