d-stn / e-commerce

Full-stack E-commerce App

Work Under Progress

Live demo

The payment process is running in test mode, which means that the app does not support real purchases and only stripe's test cards work. Since this is not a real store but a personal project, it will remain in test mode.

Technologies and frameworks used

React
Redux
Cloudinary
Stripe.js
Node.js
Express
MongoDB

Ideas to implement

• Responsive design
• User authentication
• Admin dashboard
• Product filters
• Search bar
• User reviews

Run Locally

1. Install server dependencies

From project root:

cd server
npm install

2. Add environment variables

Create an .env file and add the following variables. (You will need a Stripe.js and MongoDB Atlas account)

// SAMPLE CONFIG .env, you should put your own details

PORT=3003
MONGODB_URI=mongodb+srv://username:[email protected]/App?
TEST_MONGODB_URI=mongodb+srv://username:[email protected]/App_test?
STRIPE_SECRET_KEY=sk_test_z6Wgj3W5n3eYSLEKPRJ4OrE900vpjOnFhP

3. Run development server

npm run dev

4. Install client dependencies

From project root:

cd client
npm install

5. Change requests url

Change the constant variable baseUrl in client/src/services/order.js and client/src/services/products.js to the local url your server is running on.

6. Run client

npm start

Note: If the products are not loading, then the server (which is hosted on railway) is not live. This is because I am using railway's free tier and I have ran out of credits. The server will be up when the next month starts.
