Shopping Cart

Node.js Shopping Cart application using Prisma and PostgreSQL with Express TypeScript

This repository contains a sample project that demonstrates how to use Prisma with PostgreSQL. This project serves as a starting point for building web applications that rely on a PostgreSQL database for data storage.

Getting Started

Follow these steps to get the project up and running on your local machine:

1. Clone the Repository: Clone this repository to your local machine using Git.

   git clone https://github.com/Node-AL/prisma-postgresql-without-graphql.git
   

2. Install Dependencies: Navigate to the project directory and install the required dependencies using npm or yarn.

   cd prisma-postgresql-without-graphql
   npm install
   # or
   yarn install

3. Set Up PostgreSQL Database: Create a PostgreSQL database for the project and update the database connection details in the schema.prisma file.

4. Generate Prisma Client: Generate the Prisma Client by running the following command:

   npx prisma generate
    # or
    yarn prisma generate

5. Run Migrations: Run Prisma migrations to create the necessary database tables.

    npx prisma migrate dev
    # or
    yarn prisma migrate dev

6. Build the Application: Build the application using the following command:

   npm run build
   # or
   yarn build

7. Start the Application: Start the application using the following command:

   npm run start
   # or
   yarn start

8. Access the Application: The application should now be running locally. Access it in your web browser at http://localhost:3000.

Project Structure

The project follows a typical structure for a Node.js application with Prisma. Here are the main directories and their purposes:

• src: Contains the source code for the application.
  • controllers: Controllers handle HTTP requests and responses.
  • middlewares: Middleware functions for request processing.
  • routes: Define routes for the application.
  • services: Business logic services.
  • index.ts: The main entry point of the application.
• prisma: prisma migration files for database schema changes and mirations.
• package.json: Project dependencies and scripts.
