A fully functional backend for imaginary amusement park.
This repository is a part of one of my school projects I made during the past school year.
Our task was to create a website with a backend and an ai powered bot. Also, we had to work in agile method with a small help of Jira software. We also decided to use Bitbucket for storing our Git repo.
I decided to go with Node.js and used Express.js framework as it is something I had already knew. We were forced to use MongoDB as our database. We had decided to create a professional and flexible login system, so we have used Passport.js to carry out this task. We also wanted to send email messages (for example for email address confirmation), so we have used Nodemailer together with EJS for creating templates.
Unfortunately, I have stopped updating a documentation after first some days, so I cannot provide it. Also, I do not have enough time now to write the documentation from scratch. This code, however, is quite simple and self-explanatory and I hope you will get how it works.
The only thing I want to explain is how the sign-up works as it may be a little tricky. Firstly, a user sends their email address and they get back a message with a token and a link. When the user clicks on the link, they must type in a password. After going ahead an account is created.
This app was created as a school project and IS NOT INTENDED TO BE SAFE. You use it ON YOUR OWN RISK.
Please do not use it as a learning resource of any kind.
Side note:
There is an .env file present in the project, however it does not hold any sensitive data. SMTP Client credentials are used for logging-in into a fake SMTP service called Ethereal. Every message sent from the code is being caught by the service and is removed after some hours.
