Project Description

This project is an illustration of an end to end solution for developing a Feed Management system with Data ingestion (RSS Feeds) into a scalable database with display of the same in a UI.

The project is developed using following technologies

Nodejs 
Typescript, Javascript 
Unit Testing and Test coverage using mocha, chai, sinon, nyc
React
Redis
Nginx
Docker, Docker-compose

Prerequisites

Install Docker and Docker-compose in your system (This is really fantastic because docker-compose will build and up all the required services)

https://docs.docker.com/install/

https://docs.docker.com/compose/install/

Without Docker and Docker-compose, the system can also be run by installing above mentioned techstack individually

Instructions for running the system using Docker and Docker-compose

cd DataIntegrationAndFeedManagement
sudo docker-compose up // This will build/pull images of backend, forntend, redis and nginx as components of the system services

Instructions for running the system without Docker and Docker-compose

Copy/Configure nginx.conf from nginxConf/nginx.conf into /etc/nginx/conf/nginx.conf

service nginx start 

Nginx will run default at port 80

Start Backend server as follows

cd server
npm install
npm run test
npm run start-dev // For running typescript files locally
or
npm run build // This will convert tsc to javascript into dist/ folder 

This should make your server running in port 4000

Start Frontend server as follows

cd client
npm install
npm run start

This should make your server running in port 3000 (default port)
