bookish

bookish is a customer relationship model for library systems. It keeps track of renters and the books they have out.

Prerequisites

• You will need Docker Desktop installed.

Getting Started

To run bookish locally first set the BOOKSHOST environment variable in ./docker-compose.yml to the Books API hostname. You can then use docker-compose from the root directory to spin up the local environment:

docker-compose up -d

This will start a local MySQL container on port 3306 using the root user and password 123pass. A volume will be mounted that holds spin up SQL scripts that will prepare the database for you.

Once the local backend environment is spun up you may start the bookish-ui development environment by running:

cd bookish-ui && npm start
