React Soft Dashboard - Open-source full-stack product


React UI Tests:

NodeJS NPM YARN Status
v16.13.0 v8.1.0 v1.22.5 ✔️
v14.15.0 v6.14.8 v1.22.5 ✔️
v12.22.0 v6.14.11 v1.22.5 ✔️

✨ Quick-start

👉 Start the Django API using Docker

$ cd django-api
$ docker-compose up --build  

At this point, the API should be up & running at http://localhost:5000, and we can test the interface using POSTMAN or curl.


👉 Start the React UI (using another terminal)

$ cd react-ui
$ yarn         # install dependencies
$ yarn start   # start the app 

Once all the above commands are executed, the React UI should be visible in the browser. By default, the app redirects the guest users to authenticate. After we register a new user and Sign IN, all the private pages become accessible.


React Soft Dashboard - Open-source full-stack product with Django API Backend.


✨ General Information

The product is built using a two-tier pattern where the React frontend is decoupled logically and physically from the API backend. How to use the product:

  • Compile and start the Django API Backend
    • by default the server starts on port 5000
  • Compile and start the React UI
    • UI will start on port 3000 and expects a running backend on port 5000
  • Configuration (Optional)
    • Change the API port
    • Configure the API port used by the React UI to communicate with the backend

✨ Manual build

Start the Django API

Simple starter built with Python / DRF Library / Sqlite3 and JWT Auth. The authentication flow is based on json web tokens.


👉 Step #1 - Change the directory to django-api

$ cd django-api

👉 Step #2 - Create a virtual environment

$ # Virtualenv modules installation (Unix based systems)
$ virtualenv env
$ source env/bin/activate
$
$ # Virtualenv modules installation (Windows based systems)
$ # virtualenv env
$ # .\env\Scripts\activate

👉 Step #3 - Install dependencies using PIP

$ pip install -r requirements.txt

👉 Step #4 - Create a new .env file using sample env.sample

The meaning of each variable can be found below:

  • DEBUG: if True the app runs in develoment mode
    • For production value False should be used
  • SECRET_KEY: used in assets management

👉 Step #5 - Start the API server

$ python manage.py migrate
$ python manage.py runserver 5000

The API server will start using the explicit port 5000.


Compile & start the React UI

$ cd react-ui
$
$ # Install Modules
$ yarn
$
$ # Start for development (LIVE Reload)
$ yarn start 

Configuration (Optional)

Change the port exposed by the Djago API

$ python manage.py runserver 5000

Now, the API will start on port 5000.


Update the API port used by the React Frontend

API Server URL - src/config/constant.js

    API_SERVER: 'http://localhost:5001/api/'  // <-- The magic line

The value can be updated during the build using the environment

$ export REACT_APP_BACKEND_SERVER='http://localhost:5001/api/' # Unix/MacOS
$ set REACT_APP_BACKEND_SERVER='http://localhost:5001/api/'    # Windows CMD
$ $env:REACT_APP_BACKEND_SERVER='http://localhost:5001/api/'   # Windows PowerShell

✨ API

For a fast set up, use this POSTMAN file: api_sample

👉 Register - api/users/register (POST request)

POST api/users/register
Content-Type: application/json

{
    "username":"test",
    "password":"pass", 
    "email":"[email protected]"
}

👉 Login - api/users/login (POST request)

POST /api/users/login
Content-Type: application/json

{
    "password":"pass", 
    "email":"[email protected]"
}

👉 Logout - api/users/logout (POST request)

POST api/users/logout
Content-Type: application/json
authorization: JWT_TOKEN (returned by Login request)

{
    "token":"JWT_TOKEN"
}
