TODO

TODO is a web application that introduces you to the power, performance, and simplicity of MariaDB.

This application is made of two parts:

Client
- web UI that communicates with REST endpoints available through an API app (see below).
- is a React.js project located in the client folder.
API
- uses MySqlConnector with Dapper to connect to MariaDB.
- is a .NET solution located in the api folder.

This README will walk you through the steps for getting the TODO web application up and running using MariaDB.

Requirements

This sample application requires the following to be installed/enabled on your machine:

.NET
Visual Studio
Node.js (v. 12+) (for the Client/UI app)
NPM (v. 6+) (for the Client/UI app)
MariaDB command-line client (optional), used to connect to MariaDB database instances.

1.) Getting Started with MariaDB

MariaDB is a community-developed, commercially supported relational database management system, and the database you'll be using for this application.

If you don't have a MariaDB database up and running you can find more information on how to download, install and start using a MariaDB database in the MariaDB Quickstart Guide.

2.) Get the code

First, use git (through CLI or a client) to retrieve the code using git clone:

$ git clone https://github.com/mariadb-developers/todo-app-dotnet-dapper.git

Next, because this repo uses a git submodule, you will need to pull the client application using:

$ git submodule update --init --recursive

3.) Create the database and table

Connect to your MariaDB database (from Step #2) and execute the following SQL scripts using the following options:

a.) Use the MariaDB command-line client to execute the SQL contained within schema.sql.

Example command:

$ mariadb --host HOST_ADDRESS --port PORT_NO --user USER --password PASSWORD < schema.sql

OR

b.) Copy, paste and execute the raw SQL commands contained in schema.sql using a client of your choice.

CREATE DATABASE todo;

CREATE TABLE todo.tasks (
  id INT(11) unsigned NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
  description VARCHAR(500) NOT NULL,
  completed BOOLEAN NOT NULL DEFAULT 0,
  PRIMARY KEY (id)
);

4.) Configure, Build and Run the App

This application is made of two parts:

This application is made of two parts:

- is a React.js project located in the client folder.
API
- uses MySqlConnector with Dapper to connect to MariaDB.
- is a .NET solution located in the api folder.

The following steps, a through c, will walk you through the process of configuring, building and running the api and client applications.

a.) Configure the app

Configure the MariaDB connection with your connection details in appsettings.json file.

Example implementation:

{
  "Logging": {
    "LogLevel": {
      "Default": "Information",
      "Microsoft": "Warning",
      "Microsoft.Hosting.Lifetime": "Information"
    }
  },
  "ConnectionStrings": {
    "TodoDatabase": "host=localhost;port=3306;user id=app_user;password=Password123!;database=todo;"
  },
  "AllowedHosts": "*"
}

b.) Build and run the API app

Build and run the application using Visual Studio. The solution will be built and the Web API project will begin listening on http://localhost:8080.

c.) Build and run the UI (Client) app

Once the API project is running you can now communicate with the exposed endpoints directly (via HTTP requests) or with the application UI, which is contained with the client folder of this repo.

To start the client application follow the instructions here.
