Flytbase

Flytbase is a backend server application developed using MongoDB, Express, and Node.js (MEN stack). It provides user authorization using cookies and JWT tokens. The application can be run in a Docker container using the provided Dockerfile and Docker image. Additionally, a collection of Postman APIs and .env file is included for testing purposes.

Schemas

Flytbase revolves around five basic schemas:

1. User: Represents a user of the system. There are two types of users: admin and normal users.

2. Site: Represents a location or site associated with the system.

3. Mission: Represents a specific task or mission assigned to a user or a drone.

4. Drone: Represents a drone used within the system. Only the admin can create and allocate drones to other users.

5. Category: Represents a category of mission.

User Authorization

The application implements user authorization using cookies and JWT tokens. Admin users have additional privileges such as creating and allocating drones to other users. Drones can only be deleted by admin users.

Node version: 14
