# DBA Starter Code
Starter code for the DBA Project. This is a simple layout connected to a GitHub Classroom that serves as the basis for implementing the DBA project.
This example program provides:
* A Java class for the Index page (index.html)
* 6x Java classes for 6 pages. Additional pages can be added by adding additional classes
* MongoDBConnection Java class, that uses the AirBnB Database.
* You will need to update the DATABASE_URL string in MongoDBConnection to your Atlas Mongodb Compass String
* format: mongodb+srv://username: .address/database
* Goto https://cloud.mongodb.com/
* click connect > connect your application > Driver Java > Version 4.3 or later
* copy connection string
* if you have time out issues (due to firewalls) choose verion 3.3 or earlier instead
*
* You should replace the example method in MongoDBConnection with the required MongoDB Queries to support your web page
* App Java class to configure and setup the Javalin web server.
* You will need to uncomment the appropriate lines in “`configureRoutes()“` for any webpages that you need to power through a web form.
* Examples CSS (common.css) file in the resources directory
* Example image (logo.png) file in the resources directory with where to locate any images you want on your website
Classes backing Web pages:
“`bash
├── Index – Homepages/index page. Provides a directory to all other pages
├── Page1 – Returns a list of all movies.
├── Page2 – Returns movies by specific user entered type – using basic HTML
├── Page3 – Returns movies by specific user entered type – using Thymeleaf
├── Page4 – Same as page 1
├── Page5 – Same as page 1
└── Page6 – Same as page 1
“`
Other Classes:
“`bash
├── App – Main Application entrypoint for Javalin
└── MongoDBConnection – Example MongoDB Connection class
“`
Folders:
“`bash
├── /src/main – Location of all files as required by MAVEN build
│ ├── java – Java Source location
│ │ └── app – package location for all Java files
│ └── resources – Web resources (html templates / style sheets)
│ ├── css – CSS Style-sheets. Base example style sheet (common.css) provided
│ └── images – Image files. Base example image (RMIT Logo) provided
│
├── /target – build directory (DO NOT MODIFY)
├── pom.xml – Configure Build (DO NOT MODIFY)
└── README.md – This file 😉

# Building & Running the code
1. Open this project within VSCode
2. Allow VSCode to read the Maven pom.xml file
– Allow the popups to run and “say yes” to VSCode configuring Maven
– Allow VSCode to download the required Java libraries
– Edit MongoDBConnection.java to update the “DATABASE_URL” variable to match your atlas mongodb connection string
3. To Build & Run
– Open the src/main/java/app/App.java source file, and select “Run” from the pop-up above the main function
4. Go to: http://localhost:7000
5. Press ctrl-c in console to stop server
