Inventory Project

Description

The Inventory project is a web application built with Node.js and Express.js. It's designed to manage and track inventory items. This application allows users to add, view, edit, and delete items in the inventory.

Prerequisites

• Node.js (v18 or later)
• npm (comes with Node.js)
• PostgreSQL (version 13 or later)

Setup

1. Clone the repository:

bash
    git clone <repository-url>
    cd inventory
    

2. Install dependencies:

bash
    npm install
    

3. Set up the database:
   • Ensure you have PostgreSQL running.
   • Create a database named inventory_db (or you can name it whatever you want and update the config.js file).
   • Update the database connection details in src/config.js.
   • Run the database setup script:

bash
        node src/db/setupDb.js
        

This will create the table and insert some sample data.

4. Run the app

bash
    node src/app.js
    

5. View the App

   Open a browser and go to: http://localhost:3000
