Project Demo
Getting Started
These instructions will get you a copy of the project up and running on your local machine for development and testing purposes.
Prerequisites
NPM / Yarn and Node.js installed
Installing
Installing NPM modules on both client and server folders
Execute these commands from the project directory
cd client && npm install
cd server && npm install
Running the app
Open a terminal on server directory
npm run start:dev
and open another terminal on client directory
npm run start
Access the web app at http://localhost:3000/
Deploying the backend server to render
Follow these setps
-
Create your render account in https://render.com/
-
Connect your github to render and give the project permission for that
-
Then create a new Web Service and add your repo (your repo must be look like this repo's folder structure like frontend and backend both in that repo)
-
For deploying this, every change will be in this
render-deploy-backend
branch. So don't change your.evn
from master branch. -
You have to change your database to local to mongodb atlas. Because in this deployment we are not creating db server. So we will be using mongo atlas url. So find your mongodb cloud url with database which will look like this:
mongodb+srv://myusername:[email protected]/ecommerce?retryWrites=true&w=majority
and goto therender-deploy-backend
branch and goto.env
file and replace the first variable to your latest mongodb cloud url like this:DATABASE=mongodb+srv://myusername:[email protected]/ecommerce?retryWrites=true&w=majority
Don't just put this url. Your url will be different. You will find it in your mongo cluster setting. The old variable will be like this:DATABASE=mongodb://127.0.0.1:27017/ecommerce
and your new one should look like this:DATABASE=mongodb+srv://myusername:[email protected]/ecommerce?retryWrites=true&w=majority
you can find the mongo url by goto the mongodb atlas website and goto your database and you can find a connect button and click on that you will see the url. And modify the url quite like my one with your secret info. N.B: And you must need to provide the cluster password not your account password! So find your cluster password from database access menu in mongodb atlast cloud and change accoding to you. Here I provide all image's that you can undarstand better -
Then come to render website. Give all of the imformations I set in the image below just change the name of your project and then must be change the branch name to
master
torender-deploy-backend
-
After all the setup you finished create the web service and It will deploy the project.
You can deploy frontend into vercel or netlify also. Thanks
