Try it youself... locally!

Clone the project and get it running on a local http hosting such as XAMPP. Everything is included except the following config.php which has to be placed into the project directory:

<?php
// This is for your mysql database
$servername = ''; // E.g. when you run locally, this will be 'localhost'
$username = ''; // Username for your database
$password = ''; // Password for your database
// This is for your smtp server.
$mailPw = ''; // TODO: This is not fully configurizable yet, sorry guys! :-(

To talk to our backend, you could need some help by SoapUi or any other REST application of your choice. Using SoapUi, we have created THIS project to work with the backend.

Backend's functions and what they require

The backend is communicating using json requests and responses. Following functions are implemented so far:

(this documentation will be extended in the next days - last state: 23.03.2020)

• endpoints/auth/
• endpoints/institutionProfile/
• endpoints/volunteerProfile/
• endpoints/confirmationKey/

/endpoints/auth/

Result headers:

• HTTP 200: Everything worked fine!

• HTTP 401: Unauthorized: Is the user logged in? Most probably not.

How-Tos

These instructions will get you a copy of the backend up and running on your local machine or server for development and testing purposes.

Docker

1. Start docker
2. Open shell/cmd in the root folder
3. Enter docker-compose up

Now you can access the backend on port 8001 and phpmyadmin on port 8000. You can login into phpmyadmin with the following login: 'user' and password: 'test'.
