Introduction

This project is the backend server program to provide RESTful APIs to client and also includes a Web App for restaurant management. The software stack we choose is:

  • Redis for caching (only cache access_token for now)
  • MySQL for persistent datasotre

Deployment

  1. Install and start redis server on localhost, default port.

  2. Install and start MySQL database.

    • Create a database named "restaurant".
    • Create tables from "ddl.sql".
    • (Optional) Configure you own connection params in "rest-server/utils/database.js".

  3. Node.js.

    • install node.js
    • install dependencies: cd rest-server; npm instal
    • start the server: sudo node bin/www. By default, it's started on localhost:80.
