Sabiá - Microblogging platform 🪶

Sabiá is a full-stack microblogging social network inspired by X (formerly Twitter). It allows users to post, like, and comment on posts, providing a seamless and engaging social experience. Built as a personal portfolio project, Sabiá showcases a robust and scalable architecture using modern web development technologies.

This repository contains both the backend and frontend implementations of Sabiá. The backend is powered by Java Spring Boot, ensuring reliable performance and security. The frontend is built with Next.js, offering a dynamic and responsive user interface. Together, these technologies create a fully functional and visually appealing microblogging platform.

Attention❗

This project does not include many advanced features found in commercial social networks like X (formerly Twitter). Complex algorithms and resource-intensive functionalities such as trending topics, sophisticated recommendation systems, and real-time updates are not supported. This project aims to demonstrate fundamental concepts and a scalable architecture using modern web development technologies, rather than replicating the full feature set of a production-level social network.

Setup 💻

Backend Setup

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone https://github.com/Barata-Ribeiro/sabia.git
   cd sabia/server

2. Set up the PostgreSQL database: Use the provided docker-compose.yml file to set up the database:

   docker-compose up -d

3. Set up environment variables: Create a application.properties file in the src/main/resources directory and add the following variables:

   springdoc.api-docs.path=/api-docs
   spring.application.name=sabia
   
   # Postgres configuration
   spring.datasource.url=jdbc:postgresql://${DB_ORIGIN:localhost}:${DB_PORT:5432}/${DB_NAME:sabia_test}
   spring.datasource.username=${DB_USER:postgres}
   spring.datasource.password=${DB_PASSWORD:postgres}
   spring.datasource.driver-class-name=org.postgresql.Driver
   spring.jpa.database-platform=org.hibernate.dialect.PostgreSQLDialect
   spring.jpa.hibernate.ddl-auto=update
   spring.jpa.show-sql=true
   spring.jpa.properties.hibernate.jdbc.lob.non_contextual_creation=true
   
   # JWT, CORS, and Seeder configuration
   api.security.token.secret=${JWT_SECRET:secret}
   api.security.cors.origins=${CORS_ORIGINS:http://localhost:3000}
   api.security.seeder.admin.username=${ADMIN_USERNAME:admin}
   api.security.seeder.admin.displayName=${ADMIN_DISPLAY_NAME:Admin}
   api.security.seeder.admin.fullName=${ADMIN_FULL_NAME:Admin}
   api.security.seeder.admin.birthDate=${ADMIN_BIRTH_DATE:1990-01-01}
   api.security.seeder.admin.password=${ADMIN_PASSWORD:admin}
   api.security.seeder.admin.email=${ADMIN_EMAIL:admin@example.com}
   api.security.seeder.admin.avatarUrl=${ADMIN_AVATAR_URL}
   api.security.seeder.admin.coverUrl=${ADMIN_COVER_URL}

   You can also set these variables in the application.properties file by using your own values.

4. Build and run the application:

   ./mvnw spring-boot:run

Frontend Setup

1. Navigate to the frontend directory:

   cd ../client

2. Install dependencies:

   npm install

3. Set up environment variables: Create a .env file in the frontend directory and add the following variables:

   JWT_BACKEND_SECRET=your_backend_jwt_secret_key
   UNSPLASH_ACCESS_KEY=your_unsplash_access_key
   BACKEND_ORIGIN=your_backend_server_origin

4. Run the application:

   npm run dev

Known Issues!! 🐛

• The frontend is not yet fully translated into Brazilian Portuguese.
• The frontend's internationalization of certain routes is not working properly, due to the limitations of the Next. js framework with the next-intl library.
• The Terms of Service page is not yet implemented, so be careful when using the application.
• The Settings page is not fully implemented, so you cannot change your profile information as of now.
• Some CSS styles are not yet fully responsive, so the application may not look good on all devices.
