Library Management System

This project was bootstrapped with Spring Initializer and Create React App.

Synopsis

This project focuses on the development of a centralized library management system aimed at streamlining library operations, improving inventory management, and enhancing the user experience. The proposed system will automate the cataloging, lending, and user management processes, addressing the issues faced by libraries with multiple branches in managing their collections, tracking lending, and providing efficient services to users. By leveraging a scalable, cloud-based architecture, the Library Management System (LMS) will be designed to adapt to the growing needs of libraries and support various functionalities, such as book cataloging, inventory management, user management, and search capabilities.

Build Steps

Step 0

Install appropriate versions of Java, Maven, Node, NPM, and MariaDB

Step 1:

After installing MariaDB you’ll want to set the password for the root user
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES on *.* to 'root'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'password';

Or if you have a user and password already set you can go into lms-core/src/main/resources/application.properties and change the spring.datasource.username and spring.datasource.password to your desired username and password

Step 2:

run mvn clean install on the root folder of the library management system

Step 3: This project works best when using an ide, but you can also run it from the command line.

For the Backend

Change directory to lms-core cd lms-core
Run springboot application using maven mvn spring-boot:run

For the front end

Open another terminal window Go to lms-ui cd lms-ui
Start front end application npm start
