Prerequisites

Before you begin, ensure the following:

1. Rust Installed:

   • Install Rust using rustup:

     curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -sSf https://sh.rustup.rs | sh

   • Verify installation:

     rustc --version
     cargo --version

2. MariaDB Installed:

   • Follow the MariaDB installation guide, or use your system’s package manager. Example for Ubuntu:

Step 1: Clone the Repository

Open a terminal and run:

git clone https://github.com/PhishingSpider/bville-recycle.git
cd bville-recycle

Step 2: Configure Your Environment

Create a .env file in the project root with your MariaDB credentials. Use non-default credentials for better security:

DATABASE_URL=mysql://your_username:your_password@localhost/bville_recycle

Step 3: Set Up the Database

Open the MariaDB command-line client and run the following commands:

CREATE DATABASE bville_recycle;
CREATE USER 'your_username'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'your_password';
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON bville_recycle.* TO 'your_username'@'localhost';
FLUSH PRIVILEGES;

If you're unsure, refer to the Set up MariaDB section of our GitHub Actions workflow for Rust for a practical example.

Step 4: Build and Run the Application

Build the project:

cargo build

Run the application:

cargo run

The application will start, and you can access it locally at http://localhost:8000. (TLS pending)

Step 5: Run Tests (Optional)
