Current live site can be found at ShipItOut

ShipItOut is my full stack NSS C46 capstone project. It is related to my initial project, PackItUp - track what you pack, app.

ShipItOut consist of React front-end and Django backend.

It is a dashboard-like app that tracks shipping containers where the shipper, container, port authorities can update the container status as it moves.

Link to frontend repo here.

I come from the transportation/logistics/freight shipping industries and often times the tools we used to track maintenace/inventory/shipments were clunky and outdated.

This is a simple version of something I would wanted to use.

brew install libtiff libjpeg webp little-cms2

sudo apt-get install libtiff5-dev libjpeg8-dev libopenjp2-7-dev zlib1g-dev \
    libfreetype6-dev liblcms2-dev libwebp-dev tcl8.6-dev tk8.6-dev python3-tk \
    libharfbuzz-dev libfribidi-dev libxcb1-dev

1. Clone this repository and change to the directory in the terminal.

2. Run pipenv shell

3. Run pipenv install

4. Set up variables for your local postgres db. These are referenced in settings.

   $ mv .env.example .env

5. Create your db

   $ sudo -u postgres psql

where you will see the psql prompt

psql (10.17 (Ubuntu 10.17-1.pgdg16.04+1), server 9.4.26)
Type "help" for help.

postgres=#

Then create your database, user, and give them privilages. Quit when done.

CREATE DATABASE {from your .env file};
CREATE USER {from your .env file} WITH PASSWORD {from your .env file};
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON DATABASE {from your .env file} TO {from your .env file};
\q

To verify, reconnect with:

$ psql --host=localhost --dbname={from your .env file} --username={from your .env file}

7. Before running server make sure to update local.py file in settings to fit your localhost.

   $ mv server/settings/local.py.example server/settings/local.py

8. Run migrations and migrate for app

   $ python3 manage.py makemigrations api $ python3 manage.py migrate

9. Type this exact thing into the terminal to run the migrations and seed the database: ./seed_data.sh and run with

   $ bash seed_data.sh
   

Open the Latest ShipItOut db diagram in the browser to view the tables and relationships for the database.
