bamazon

Overview:

Using MySQL & Node.js, bamazon is an Amazon-like CLI app that takes orders from customers and depletes stock from the store's inventory as valid.

---

Details:

1. Running node bamazonCustomer.js in the terminal will first display all of the items available for sale, including ids, names, and prices.

2. The app then prompts users with two messages:

   • The first asks them the ID of the product they would like to buy.
   • The second message asks how many units of the product they would like to buy.

3. Once the customer has placed the order, the app will check for a valid product ID and if the store has enough of the product to meet the customer's request.

   • If the product ID does not exist or if there is not enough quantity of a product, the app prevents the order from going through and prompts the customer to try again.

4. If an order is successful, the customer receives a receipt for the item and quantity purchased and the total cost.

5. the storefront will reflect the updated remaining quantity upon the next potential purchase.
