This is the code for COM3610 Dissertation Project, authored by Nikolay Lyubomirov and supervised by Professor Hamish Cunnigham.

The project is split between three separate folders, each being its separate node project.

In order to run the code correctly do the following for each of the folders:

API

1. Copy and rename config.example.json to config.json from the config folder.
2. Change it to whatever settings you have on your machine.
3. Run npm install in the root directory of the API folder
4. Run in consecutive order:

   npx sequelize db:migrate
   npx sequelize db:seed:all
   

   This will create a test user and some sample data
5. Once 1-4 is complete, in the /api directory run npm run dev. This will start a local Express server on whatever port you have configured in the config.json file. It will also start a WebSockets server, again based on the configuration.

Dashboard

1. Run npm install
2. Run npm run dev. This will start a local Next.JS server on port 3000. If the port is in use, any processes can be killed with the following command kill -9 (lsof -t -i tcp:3000), asuming a UNIX based system is used.

Tests

1. In order for the tests to run correctly, the database must be migrated and seeded by following the steps outlined in the API section.
2. Run npm install inside the /tests folder
3. From inside the /tests folder, run npm start
4. Use the GUI to run different integration tests.
