Description

A web application for pets to find other pets to play with. You can create a user account and add, and edit account information, and delete your entire account if you so choose. Checking the browse page will allow you to find new people to match with and if the other user you try to match with wants to match with you they will be added to the matches page.

Setup/Installation Requirements

• Make sure you have MySql Workbench installed on your computer.
• Make sure to have dotnet-ef installed too.
  This project uses dotnet-ef --version 3.0.0 which I have globally installed but you can install it however you want.
• Download repo to your computer using either clone or the download link.
• Open the project in VScode or your terminal/IDE of choice.
• Create a appsettings.json file in the root directory of the project folder. And add the following code replacing anything in square brackets with the information it represents specific to the project database:

{
  "ConnectionStrings": {
    "DefaultConnection": "Server=localhost;Port=3306;database=[DATABASE-NAME-HERE];uid=[USER-ID-HERE];pwd=[YOUR-PASSWORD-HERE];"
  }
}

Example of complete appsettings.json:

{
  "ConnectionStrings": {
    "DefaultConnection": "Server=localhost;Port=3306;database=catfish;uid=root;pwd=MySuperStrongPassword;"
  }
}

• Make sure to run your mysql server and open MySql workbench.

• Open MySql Workbench and login to your server.

• From your terminal navigate to the CatFish/ folder and run the command dotnet ef database update to create the database from migrations.

• Now using your IDE in the CatFish.Solution/CatFish/ folder use the command dotnet run to launch the program.

• The site should be available at the server address you used in the appsettings.json folder.

• Make sure to change the Identity services configuration to make passwords more secure as the current settings are in place to make development easier but are not good settings for secure passwords
