FOTOS (https://fotos124.herokuapp.com/) is a website where you can share your photos.

USER STORIES

  • I can view everyone's posted photos on the website.
  • I can click on each photo and go to that photo's page.
  • I can click on a username and go to that profile page (listing the photos that they have taken)
  • I will be informed if I try and access a page that doesn't exist (404 error), or if there is a 500 server error.
  • I can register (with register form validation), and it will automatically log me in.
  • I can login using my password and username. My password is stored securely.
  • I can look at my own profile.
  • I can upload a photo.
  • I can log out.

How to run the project locally

  1. git clone https://github.com/fac-13/fotos.git
  2. Run npm i to install the required modules.
  3. Set up the local database by:
    1. Connect to postgres, either by psql (pgcli) in the terminal on MAC, and sudo -u postgres psql on ubuntu.
    2. Create the database by typing CREATE DATABASE [the name of the database];. It's best not to use a hyphen (-) or uppercase letters in your database name.
    3. Create a superuser with a password - type in CREATE USER [the new username] WITH SUPERUSER PASSWORD '[the password of the database]';
    4. Change ownership of the database to the new user by typing ALTER DATABASE [name of the database] OWNER TO [the new username];
  4. Add a config.env file in the root folder and add the database's url in this format:
USERS_DB_URL = [the heroku database]
TEST_DB_URL = postgres://[username]:[password]@localhost:5432/[databasename]

SECRET = TAKA
  1. Exit postgres and the run npm run build to build the database. (or Build the database by connecting to postgres and typing \i + correct path + /fotos/src/model/database/db_build.sql)
  2. You should now be able to run tests (using npm test) and also run npm run start:watch and access the site at localhost:3000.
