This is a Book Catalog Management System that allows users to manage and track a collection of books. The solution consists of backend and frontend projects. The backend exposes API endpoints for managing books, while the frontend allows users to interact with the catalog through a web interface.
- CRUD operations for book entity.
- Support searching and filtering by title, author, and genre.
- Pagination and sorting options.
- Bulk upload functionality to import multiple books from a CSV file.
- Special: rate limiting to prevent abuse of the API.
- view the list of books in a table format.
- search and filter books by title, author, and genre.
- add new books to the catalog via a form.
- update book details.
- delete books from the catalog.
- Ensure the UI has a responsive design that works seamlessly on both desktop and mobile devices.
- Special: implement real-time updates to the book list, allowing the list to refresh automatically when changes are made.
- Backend: C#, ASP.NET Core Minimal API
- Frontend: Blazor WebAssembly
- Database: In-memory storage
Containerization: Docker, Docker ComposeSomething went wrong with DockerI add those builds to Release section
Unpack it and then use command:
cd path/to/release
dotnet BCMS_backend.dll --urls=http://localhost:5195
path/to/release should contain BCMS_Backend.dll file. API is available at http://localhost:5195 . Hope you have port 5195 freed
Unfortunately Blazor WebAssembly project is published without dll files, it has only .wasm files which cannot be served by dotnet command. You need a static webserver to run this project. Anything that may serve static files. Unfortunately, project won't work if you doubleclick on index.html file.
I found on internet a static webserver for serving static files, here it is: https://static-web-server.net/download-and-install/ . I also include it to release.
Use such command to run it:
cd path/to/release
static-web-server.exe --root wwwroot --port 7164
If you use Node JS and have installed npm , you may use this: https://www.npmjs.com/package/@node-cli/static-server .
npm install -g @node-cli/static-server
cd path/to/release
static-server -p 7164 wwwroot
Setting up npm and node is a separate challenge.
Here path/to/release is where you unpacked BCMS_FrontendBlazor
Anyway, a project should be available at http://localhost:7164 .
A friend (and ChatGPT) helped me to come with Docker implementation, it is just there Run docker-compose up command application may be available at http://localhost:7164/
