Building a secure book sharing API with Django's rest framework using Python, where authenticated users can securely share details about the books they own.

Book sharing platform

Building a ReST API with Django's rest framework, where authenticated users can securely share details about the books they own.

Directions for use on Ubuntu/ Linux based systems:

1. Clone the repo
2. cd into the django-project directory
3. Run the Makefile with the command 'make'.
4. Run the command 'python3 manage.py runserver' to get the API running on http://127.0.0.1:8000/

Now you can post details of the books you own, see what books are owned by other authenticated users.

Ongoing Work

Writing Terraform script to host this on several EC2 servers, connected to a load balancer and an auto-scaling group.
