Everyone wants to have a piece of Science in their daily lives. This app gives some interesting facts in various areas of Science in a random manner. Most importantly it's a Full Stack developed project using various technologies like Core Java, PostgresSQL, JDBC, AngularJS, HTML, RESTful Webservice and Maven. It also guides you through different steps of deploying an app on Heroku.
We always find small snippets of code all over the net doing some functionalities. So how about getting everything all together(from Back-End to front-End) truly coupled up for our purpose. Sounds cool..Right. So follow the steps below and enjoy.
This project is solely dedicated for web hosting on Heroku. To make it live please follow the configuration steps for Heroku here
1.OS: Windows
2.JDK 1.7 or above
3.An IDE for development (eg. Eclipse)
4.Git and Maven installed on your system
5.Heroku CLI to deploy on Heroku
To run only on local server please visit FactsBox.
Still if you want to make this project to work on your local system then make some minor changes:
1.Copy the project on to your local system and run the table script on your own database.
2.Import the repo to Eclipse as Maven Project.
3.Configure the connection file(JDBCConnection.java) with the driver settings of database whichever
you are using here.
4.Change the URL setting(Properties.js) as per the URL configuration of the server you are using.
var getURI = function(){
var URL='https://factsbox.herokuapp.com/api/';
return URL;
}
Eg. If you use Tomcat then it would look something like this:
[http]://localhost:[port number]/Your_App_Name/index.html
5.Run on server.
As Heroku supports postgreSQL database for the application, this application has been fully configured on its terms. kindly change it as per your requirements.
