------------------------------
This is the main README file for the project where I will describe the project and its components.
The program has 4 interfaces:
1. Property Manager Interface
- Recording visit data
- Recording new lease data
- Here you can also create a new tenant if it's not found
- Recording the move out
2. Tenant Interface
- First, there is login/registration process for the tenant
- If you are a new tenant, you can register yourself and set a password
- If you are an existing tenant, you can login with your tenantID and password
- All tenants who did not change a password have a default password of "qwerty12345"
- All passwords are encrypted using SHA-256 and stored in the database
- Then, after logging in, you can do the following:
- View your personal data
- View apartments you are currently renting
- Update your personal data
- View your leases
- The program will show all leases that you have
- Inside each lease, you can:
- Check payment status
- Make a rental payment if you haven't paid yet
- Add a person/pet
- Set a move out date
- View your other lease information
- Update your password
3. NUMA Manager Interface
- Add a new Property
- After answering a few questions, the program will create a new property
- The program will also call PL/SQL procedures to populate the property with apartments and amenities
- It is based on user's provided information
- Edit a Property
- View all properties
- Raise a rent
- But only if noone is renting the property
4. Business Manager Interface
- View statistics on general NUMA system
- View statistics on apartments
- View statistics on tenants
Things that I did differently from the ER Diagram:
- 'Employer' relation. While it is still stored in the database, I decided not to involve employers in anything.
In my opinion, it is not necessary.
- I added amnt_id to the amenity table, since I understood that for each property I need to have a unique identifier for each amenity.
- I added a 'password' column to the tenant table, since we need it for registration/login with SHA-256 encryption.

Compilation and running:
You can compile and launch the program by simply running the run.sh file. It has a make command that will automatically compile the program.
Or you can separately compile with makefile using the 'make' command.

Files and data generation:
All the data generation code is in 'datagen' folder. It was generated using random data from Mockaroo.
I also put the PL/SQL code in 'other/plsql' folder, and SQL code in 'other/sql' folder.
