Perishop features are :
Create a project folder (eg: perishopApp) and cd into it :
~$ cd ..../perishopApp
Clone the github repository in your project folder by running :
~$ .../perishopApp // present working directory
git clone https://github.com/atidevs/perishop.git
You need to have MongoDB installed : Community Server
https://www.mongodb.com/download-center?jmp=nav#community
If you are on MacOS or Linux skip this step, if Windows download and install git :
https://git-scm.com/downloads
Once MongoDB and git Installed, open up Git bash and cd into :
~$ cd .../mongodb/bin (... : wherever path you installed mongodb in, usually C:/mongodb/bin)
Then run this command :
~$ mongod --dbpath=".../perishopApp/perishop/database"
Open up another Git bash terminal :
~$ cd .../perishopApp/perishop (... : wherever the path to your perishopApp folder is)
And then run this command :
~$ start
Open up your browser and go to :
localhost:3000
Congrats! You are on the Home Page
If you want to check the records in the database follow these steps :
Open up the command line (cmd) as an Administrator in windows or (terminal) in MacOS and Linux and run :
> mongo
Afterwards if you look at the Git bash terminal where you run :
~$ mongod --dbpath=".../perishopApp/perishop/database"
You will see somewhere at the end (2 connections now open) : the first connection is from the app itself (When you run ~$ start) and the second is the one we just run : ( > mongo ).
Now you can run these commands :
> show dbs // to show all available databases
> use perishop // to use the perishop database displayed among available dbs
> show collections // to show all collections inside perishop db
> db.users.find().pretty() // to list all signed up users and their information
> db.shops.find().pretty() // to list all shops and their information
Enjoy ✌️
