Webapp for managing collections of items, written for learning purposes (Node.js, HTML, Javascript, JSON, Docker, Kubernetes, public cloud, OWASP best practices, identity management, ...), and as a sort of backend for my personal website.

The "database" for storing information is a JSON file.

Not ready for prod yet: security improvement in progress.

Install Node.js

git clone https://github.com/giuliano-ippoliti/collections.git

npm install

Set variables in .env file (PORT, SECRET)

Options (for developers)

npm run lint

npm run test

Start the server

npm start

Go to http://localhost:8080/ (8080 is the default port)

You can now start creating collections

Deploying to Azure is really easy from Visual Studio Code :

• Install Azure extensions into Visual Studio Code (https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=ms-vscode.vscode-node-azure-pack)
• Do not modify the listen port (8080)
• Click the upload button for uploading to Azure (cf https://docs.microsoft.com/fr-fr/azure/app-service/app-service-web-get-started-nodejs)
• The application will be accessible at .azurewebsites.net
