Design

• We decided to build an application for a popular milk tea spot in San Jose called Gong-cha.
• The whole project is separated into four main division: three microservices and one backend RestAPI.
• The RestAPI is implemented and deployed On GKE beforehand for microservices to make use of.
• Each microservices is written within it's own folder and main running class, executing separately.
• However, all microservices shares the same MySQL database through the backend API for consistency.

1. Cashier App

The Cashier App is used by the baristas to take in and process orders and their payments. This will call the CyberSource API to handle payments.

2. Online Store

The Online Store manages customer data, such as user credentials, the user's card information, user's cart, and generating orders.

3. Backoffice Help Desk

The Backoffice Help Desk is used by managers to change user's credentials.

4. REST API

The REST API processes api calls to manage orders, customers, and cards, which will be called in the Cashier App, Online Store, and the Backoffice Help Desk.

How to Run: Local

NOTE: Clone the entire repository to a folder on your local machine before following these steps. The following steps runs the application locally. ENSURE that Node.js is installed on your local machine.

Customer Microservice

1. Open the repository folder, navigate to customer\, and open a terminal at this location.

2. Run the commands gradle build and gradle bootRun to run the customer microservice.

Order Microservice

1. Open the repository folder, navigate to order\, and open a terminal at this location.

2. Run the commands gradle build and gradle bootRun to run the order microservice.

Payment Microservice

1. Open the repository folder, navigate to payment\, and open a terminal at this location.

2. Run the commands gradle build and gradle bootRun to run the payment microservice.

Front Office

1. Open the repository folder, navigate to frontend\, and open a terminal at this location.

2. Run the command npm install (NOTE: you can skip warnings and npm audit).

3. In the terminal, navigate to frontend\my-app\, and run the command npm install (NOTE: you can skip warnings and npm audit).

4. In the terminal, run the command npm start to run the front-end app on the link http://localhost:3000

NOTE: You will have 4 different terminals open

Journal

Although we don't have much journals, since our team was hectic (we had one of our teammates drop the class), we were able to get basic functionalities/bare minimum but we did struggle a lot with the back-end. Our team did it too last minute, so yes we shouldve started sooner.

How the project should look like when you run it correctly

1. Sign up

2. Browse Catalog

3. Order/Payment Processing

4. Help Desk

5. Employee login
