Kanban Application
This is a simple implementation of a Kanban Board, a tool that helps visualize and manage work. Originally it was first created in Toyota automotive, but nowadays it's widely used in software development.
A Kanban Board is usually made of 3 columns - TODO, InProgress & Done. In each column there are Post-it notes that represents task and their status.
As already stated this project is an implementation of such board and made of 3 separate Docker containers that holds:
- PostgreSQL database
- Java backend (Spring Boot)
- Angular frontend
The entry point for a user is a website which is available under the address: http://localhost:4200/
More information about this project you can found in blog post: https://medium.com/@wkrzywiec/how-to-run-database-backend-and-frontend-in-a-single-click-with-docker-compose-4bcda66f6de
Prerequisites
In order to run this application you need to install two tools: Docker & Docker Compose.
Instructions how to install Docker on Ubuntu, Windows, Mac.
Docker Compose is already included in installation packs for Windows and Mac, so only Ubuntu users needs to follow this instructions.
How to run it?
The entire application can be run with a single command on a terminal:
$ docker-compose up -d
If you want to stop it, use the following command:
$ docker-compose down
kanban-postgres (Database)
PostgreSQL database contains only single schema with two tables - kanban and task table.
After running the app it can be accessible using these connectors:
- Host: localhost
- Database: kanban
- User: kanban
- Password: kanban
Like other parts of application Postgres database is containerized and the definition of its Docker container can be found in docker-compose.yml file.
kanban-postgres:
image: "postgres:9.6-alpine"
container_name: kanban-postgres
volumes:
- kanban-data:/var/lib/postgresql/data
ports:
- 5432:5432
environment:
- POSTGRES_DB:kanban
- POSTGRES_USER:kanban
- POSTGRES_PASSWORD:kanbankanban-app (REST API)
This is a Spring Boot (Java) based application that connects with a database that and expose the REST endpoints that can be consumed by frontend. It supports multiple HTTP REST methods like GET, POST, PUT and DELETE for two resources - kanban & task.
Full list of available REST endpoints could be found in Swagger UI, which could be called using link: http://localhost:8080/api/swagger-ui.html
This app is also put in Docker container and its definition can be found in a file kanban-app/Dockerfile.
kanban-ui (Frontend)
This is a real endpoint for a user where they can manipulate their kanbans and tasks. It consumes the REST API endpoints provided by kanban-app.
It can be entered using link: http://localhost:4200/
