Einbinden

Einbinden is an online book collection tracker plugged to official databases.

Features

• Automatic data gathering from GoogleBooks, inventaire.io and bnf.fr.
• ISBN scanning (available on chromium browsers only)
• Book editing
• Sharing collection through URL
• Authentication through github SSO

Installation

The project is split in two parts: server and app.

Install both projects using npm install in both folders src/server and src/app.

Additionnaly, a MongoDB server needs to be available with a database named Einbinden. Then execute the script src/docker/mongo-init.js on that MongoDB server to create collections and indexes.

Usage

To use the app locally:

In src/server, copy .env.template as .env and fill in the information. Launch the server using npm run dev in the directory. You can check that the server is launched by requesting the /ebd/test GET endpoint.

Launch the app using npm run start in the src/app directory. Make sure the API_URL constant is correct (src/app/src/config.ts). The app should automatically open in your browser of choice.

Deployment

This project is very similar to MaiteInThePocket. Please refer to its deployment section.
