MyRecipes-backend

Spring boot api for an iOS app for cooking.

Setup

• Install docker

• Install maven

• Download docker image with Postgres database server

docker pull postgres

• Create data volume container

docker create -v /var/lib/postgresql/data --name myrecipes_db postgres:9.4

This creates a new volume inside the myrecipes_db container of postgres:9.4 image at /var/lib/postgresql/data.

• Create container with database instance

docker run --volumes-from myrecipes_db --name myrecipes_pg -e POSTGRES_USER={your db user } -e POSTGRES_PASSWORD={your db user password} -d -P postgres:9.4

• Connect to database container and create a database

docker run -it --link myrecipes_pg:postgres --rm postgres sh -c 'exec createdb -h "$POSTGRES_PORT_5432_TCP_ADDR" -p "$POSTGRES_PORT_5432_TCP_PORT" -U {your db user} recipes'

• Create hibernate.cfg.xml file Create "hibernate.cfg.xml" file in "src/main/respirces" directory. File content should have the following structure:

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?>
<!DOCTYPE hibernate-configuration PUBLIC
        "-//Hibernate/Hibernate Configuration DTD 3.0//EN"
        "http://www.hibernate.org/dtd/hibernate-configuration-3.0.dtd">


<hibernate-configuration>
    <session-factory>
        <property name="hibernate.connection.driver_class">org.postgresql.Driver</property>
        <property name="hibernate.dialect">api.v1.AddOns.CustomPostgresDialect</property>
        <property name="hibernate.connection.url">jdbc:postgresql://<database_ip_address>:<database_port>/recipes?user=<your db user>&amp;password=<your db user password></property>
        <property name="connection_pool_size">1</property>
        <property name="show_sql">true</property>
        <mapping resource="Image.hbm.xml"></mapping>
        <mapping resource="Ingredient.hbm.xml"></mapping>
    </session-factory>
</hibernate-configuration>

You can see the database(instance) ip address running the following command:

docker inspect --format='{{range .NetworkSettings.Networks}}{{.IPAddress}}{{end}}' myrecipes_pg

• Setup database structure

docker cp ./generatedb.sql myrecipes_pg:generatedb.sql
docker exec myrecipes_pg psql -U {your db user} -d recipes -f generatedb.sql

• Package application

mvn package

• Run server

docker-compose up

After starting, the aplication this should be available on localhost, port 8080.

• Optional: Run src/main/java/api/v1/Utils/DbFiller main class to populate the newly created database.
