This software uses the following technologies:

• Frontend (Angular/TypeScript)
• Backend (Java/Spring Framework/Spring Security/Maven/Tomcat)
• Database (MySQL)

There are 3 Docker files to build the images for the frontend, backend and database respectively:

• docker/nginx.df
• docker/tomcat.df
• docker/mysql.df

A build script is provided in docker/build.sh for Linux environments. This script builds the 3 Docker images first and then creates/runs the 3 Docker containers.

If the Docker engine runs inside a virtual machine, you can access the application inside the VM using the URL http://localhost:19090. You can also access the application in the hosting OS using the URL http://<vm-hostname>:19090. The port number can be customized by modifying environment variables in the docker/build.sh

In addition, you can run the application as a service using the provided docker/docker-compose.yml:

 $ docker-compose up
