Steps to setup Frontend

  • Install nodejs https://nodejs.org/en/, LTS
  • Hope that WebStorm recognizes 'npm install' command
  • Open project in IDE (WebStorm, VS Code)
  • Go inside folder 'frontend' with the terminal (the IDE may have 'open folder in terminal' on right click).
  • Run the command npm install_ to install folder 'node_modules'.
  • Start app with WebStorm, VS Code or with command 'ng serve' in terminal.
  • The app will run on the address http://localhost:4200/ -> the default port (4200) for angular projects

Steps to setup Backend

MySQL Database setup

In brief, you need: MySQL Server (username: root, password: iss2020) and an empty database 'cms'

  • Download MySQL Server from google. Windows (x86, 32-bit), MSI Installer. https://dev.mysql.com/downloads/windows/installer/8.0.html

    • (mysql-installer-web-community-8.0.19.0.msi)
    • Choose 'Server only'
    • Click 'Next' until you can choose password
    • Put password 'iss2020'
    • Click 'Next' all the way

  • Download MySQL Workbench from google (same functionality as SSMS-Sql Server Management Studio)

    • (mysql-workbench-community-8.0.19-winx64.msi)
    • Click 'Local Instance MySQL80' or smth like that
    • Left, middle of the screen, choose Schemas (belongs to tab Navigator), here you can create a DB with 'Create Schema' from Toolbar
    • create DB called 'cms'

Backend setup

Already done for this project. Written in case you want to replicate in the future.
  • Create project on the internet with Spring Initializr, add dependencies: Web, JPA. Choose Gradle, Java 11.
  • Open project in IDE (IntelliJ, Eclipse)
  • Paste the bellow code in 'resources/application.properties'. It connects the project with MySQL. Configures it to know the connection string, DB name, port of the DB and others.
spring:
  jpa:
    show-sql: true
    hibernate:
      ddl-auto: update
    properties:
      hibernate:
        dialect: org.hibernate.dialect.MySQL8Dialect
  datasource:
    url: jdbc:mysql://localhost/cms?serverTimezone=UTC
    username: root
    password: iss2020
    driverClassName: com.mysql.cj.jdbc.Driver
  servlet:
    multipart:
      enabled: true
      max-file-size: 10MB
      file-size-threshold: 10KB
      max-request-size: 15MB
server:
  servlet:
    context-path: /cms/api/
  • Change 'application.properties' to 'application.yml'. Its just a simpler form of text format.
  • Add this in 'build.gradle' -> dependencies{..}. It imports the jdbc driver.
implementation 'mysql:mysql-connector-java'
  • Run
