CloudComputing_Act1
Task description
The goal of this exercise is to have a “TODO app” that is running locally on your machine (not as a Docker container) and has a front-end that can be viewed in the browser. Requirements:
- A user can add new TODO items to a list (e.g., “I need to buy groceries tomorrow”).
- A user can view the full list of TODOs.
- A user can mark a TODO as “done”; this will hide the entry.
- A user can delete a TODO, this will remove the entry.
- A user can do all of the tasks above in a browser-based User Interface (web application).
- The TODO list needs to be stored in an external database.
- The app and database need to run locally, don’t use online services for hosting the app or database (if you know how, you can run a local docker container for the database only)
- Users can register a username/password
- Users can then log in with their username/password
- Each User can only view/manage their own TODO list and can’t access the TODO lists of other users
- User accounts need to be stored securely in the database (password salted and hashed e.g., using BCRYPT)
Develop a TODO app that fulfills the requirements from above. You can use any language and framework that you want. The app needs to be connected to a database to store the TODO lists. Use MongoDB as the database.
Prerequisites
- Git
- Docker, Docker Compose
- Node JS, NPM
Deployment
In exercise 1, the deployment consisted of 2 parts: deploying the database and the application. However, in exercise 2, the application got containerized, so you can deploy it by following these simple steps:
- Clone the repository:
git clone https://gitlab.reutlingen-university.de/gajesh24/cloudcomputing_act1.git
- Enter the folder:
cd cloudcomputing_act1
- Create .env file with the following contents:
MONGO_INITDB_ROOT_USERNAME=mongoAdmin MONGO_INITDB_ROOT_PASSWORD=someRandomPassword123 MONGO_URI=mongodb://$MONGO_INITDB_ROOT_USERNAME:$MONGO_INITDB_ROOT_PASSWORD@mongodb:27017/todo-app?authSource=admin
- Build the application
sudo docker compose build
- Run the application
sudo docker compose --env-file .env up -d
- Open up website on
http://localhost/
- To stop the application
sudo docker compose stop
