Backend

The backend provides a REST API for managing various aspects of the ticket system, including customers, tickets, purchases, events, and more. It is built using Java 19 and relies on the powerful Spring ecosystem for efficient development and deployment.

Setup and Configuration

To set up the backend, please follow these steps:

  1. Start the MySQL server. You don’t have to set up a database; it will be created automatically on the first start.
  2. Open the application.properties file located in the backend project.
  3. Update the secret.key property with a strong and secure key. This key is used for token generation and validation.
  4. Run the backend application using the command: mvn spring-boot:run.
  5. The backend API documentation can be accessed at http://localhost:8080/ or your local IP address in your network. It provides detailed information about the available endpoints and their usage.

Write down the IP of the backend computer. You will need it later.

It can be found in the console Use this IP if you are using the Mobile Ticket System App: XYZ

or

  1. Open CMD on the machine running the backend.
  2. Type ipconfig.
  3. Find the IPv4 Address

Dependencies
