User-Management

Introduction

This Project is part of the File Browser Project which currently consists of following Projects

• https://github.com/MatthiasHerzog2000/download-file-microservice
• https://github.com/MatthiasHerzog2000/generate-image-preview-microservice
• https://github.com/MatthiasHerzog2000/file-browser-client
• https://github.com/MatthiasHerzog2000/file-browser-server
• https://github.com/MatthiasHerzog2000/User-Management

The aim of this Projects is to recreate a Google Drive like experience for your own Files e.g. you want to access data of your private NAS from outside with a better UI. This Program will be working as a local User-Management-System where you can add, edit and remove user who can access the file system.

This is an User-Management System where you can create User with one or more Directories where they have access to. It's main purpose is to show M:N Relations with the Sequelize OR-Mapper. Or if you just want to know how to use Handlebars as Templating Engine with Express to serve static HTML Files and JQuery.

• A user can be added.
• All users are displayed in a List.
• A user can be deleted and his dependencies too.
• A user can be edited.
• Directories will be deleted if they have no dependencies.
• Every User has individually managed write and/or read rights for every Directory he has access to.

Prerequisites

Node-gyp

npm install -g node-gyp

Python 2.7

https://linuxconfig.org/install-python-2-on-ubuntu-18-04-bionic-beaver-linux

MySQL Database

You need an existing MySQL Database. If you don't have one use PHPMyAdmin or something similar.

Sequelize CLI

The Sequelize CLI is used for the Migrations. Open a console and type in the following Command npm i -g sequelize-cli

Get Started

Clone the Project with git clone https://github.com/MatthiasHerzog2000/User-Management.git. After this you need to install the node modules. Type npm install into the console. The next Step is to create a config Folder which holds a config.json File. This File stores your DB credentials for Sequelize so it knows where it has to connect. It can look like this.

{
  "development": {
    "username": "root",
    "password": null,
    "database": "UserDB",
    "host": "127.0.0.1",
    "dialect": "mysql"
  },
  "test": {
    "username": "root",
    "password": null,
    "database": "database_test",
    "host": "127.0.0.1",
    "dialect": "mysql"
  },
  "production": {
    "username": "root",
    "password": null,
    "database": "database_production",
    "host": "127.0.0.1",
    "dialect": "mysql"
  }
}

After successfully setting up the config.json file you need to add the tables to the DB. Just use the following command sequelize db:migrate --env development and you should see three tables in your Database. Now you can use nodemon or just npm start to start a local server.
