CLI using mysql and inquirer npm packages to simulate a customer-facing shopping experience with the ability to make orders on products that are in stock.

This project was the homework for week 12 of the Penn Coding Boot Camp.

Application Details

CLI using mysql and inquirer npm packages to simulate a customer-facing shopping experience with the ability to make orders on products that are in stock.

Goal

To create an amazon-like store using NodeJS.

Installation and Set-up

Make sure to run npm install at the root directory after cloning the project. You will also need to create and use (using either Workbench or from the command line) the sql file bamazonDB.sql in order to set up the database. You also need to create a file named keys.js in the root directory, which includes an object that holds the host, port, user, password and database, for the database that you created using the bamazonDB.sql file.

var keys = {
    host: "[YOUR_HOST_NAME]",
    port: [YOUR_PORT_NUMBER],
    user: "[YOUR_USER]",
    password: "[YOUR_PASSWORD]",
    database: "bamazonDB"
}

module.exports.keys = keys;
