Inventory app using GraphQL and React

Inventory

NextJS app to help you manage your inventory. This is a exercise to learn new web technologies, don't judge my spaghetti code.

Installation

This project has 2 parts. The first is the inventory server and the second is the inventory client. The server is a GraphQL API that is written in JS using, Redis, Postgres. The client is a web application that is written in React using NextJS.

To simplify the installation process, we have created a docker-compose file that will install all the dependencies for you. To install the project, you will need to have Docker and Docker Compose installed on your machine.

Server

To start the server you will need to run 2 process, one for the database and other for the server.

First, move to the api directory.

To start the database, run the following command:

  docker-compose up

Then, to start the server, run the following command:

  npm install
  npm run start

This will start the server and the database. You can access the GraphQL playground at http://localhost:4000/graphql.

Client

To run the client, you will need to have NodeJS installed. Once you have NodeJS installed, you'll need move into the app directory and run the following command:

npm install
npm run dev

This will start the client. You can access the client at http://localhost:3000.
