Built With

Built in Visual Studio. Server is written in C#, client in TypeScript.

• Vue.js
• ASP.NET Core
• MySQL

Getting Started

Server

Make sure you have Visual Studio/JetBrains Rider/Visual Studio Code, MySQL Server and Workbench installed. If no, download and install.

Open Workbench.

• Create a new Scheme, name it for example “some”
• Create a new User, name it for example “some”, with password set as “some”
• Give your User rights to your “some” scheme

Your connection string will look like this:

"Server=localhost;Database=some;User=some;Password=some;"

Locate and open the *.sln file in your project folder.

Locate appsettings.json. Expand it and open appsettings.Development.json. Replace the placeholdertext “CONNECTIONSTRING” with your new connection string

Client

The client folder is attached to the server project, but you can open the folder in any other preferred code editor.

Make sure you have NodeJs installed.

• Open your command prompt, go to the client folder
• Run to install packages:

  npm install

• Run to start project:

  npm run serve

Prerequisites

• Visual Studio/JetBrains Rider/Visual Studio Code
• .NET Core 2.2 SDK
• MySQL Server
• Workbench
• NodeJs (v12)

Getting started

The solution comes prepared with three users and one mock scenario.

Run endpoint to create users:

 {host}/api/data/createusers

Run endpoint to create scenario:

 {host}/api/data/create

Log in as admin in the client interface to manage your scenario, and add/edit/remove scenario events, posts and comments. Scenarios and Phases needs to be added in the controller. Locate the folder Controllers and open DataController to edit/add/remove them.

To truncate:

{host}/api/data/truncate

!! This endpoint clears all data from your database !!

Now you’re all set to go. Happy coding!
