DATA2410 - Portfolio Project 2: Webshop

This is a webshop created for the final exam in DATA2410 - Networking and Cloud Services.

How to run

1. Use $ docker-compose build while in the root directory of the project to build the images from the three Dockerfiles and link them together, along with the Prometheus image.
2. Use $ docker-compose up to start the three containers (the MySQL database, the React application and the flask API server).
3. Go to localhost:3001 to see the working webshop.

If you encounter issues loading data, you may need to visit the API. You will see a warning about it being a potentially unsafe page, as it is self-certified. Accept accessing the unsafe API and navigate back to the webshop. The issue should be solved.

Resetting the database

If you wish to reset the database, you need to delete the container. You can do that with $ docker-compose down. To re-start the webshop, follow steps 1 through 3 from How To Run. Data will have been reset to its default state.

API

The URL for the API is https://localhost:5000. It uses HTTPS since due to being secured by a self-signed SSL key pair.

Go to https://localhost:5000/api/users to see all users.
