Team 2: Podcast App

Back End (localhost: 5001)

• Express
• Node
• MySQL

Getting started:

• Run npm install to install the dependencies in the project folder
• To start the server, run npm start

Front End

• React
• Vite

Getting started:

• Open a separate Terminal to start the front end
• Go into the client directory by entering cd client into the Terminal
• Install the dependencies with npm install
• Run npm run dev to see the website

Database Prep

Create .env file in server directory and add

DB_HOST=localhost
DB_USER=root
DB_PASS=TYPE YOUR PASSWORD
DB_NAME=podcast
SUPER_SECRET=YOUR SECRET KEY

Type mysql -u root -p to access the MySQL CLI using your password.

In the MySQL CLI, type CREATE DATABASE podcast; to create a database in MySQL.

Run the following in the MySQL CLI: ALTER USER 'root'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED WITH mysql_native_password BY 'YOUR_PASSWORD'; (replace YOUR_PASSWORD with your actual password)

Open another terminal and go into the project folder and run npm run migrate. This will create the tables needed for this project since this has been configured in the package.json of the server.

Dependencies

In addition to nodemon and the regular stuff, our project also includes node-fetch so we can do fetches in the backend and react-router-dom so we can use react-router for pages.
