Step 1: Clone the Repository

echo "Step 1: Cloning the repository..."
git clone https://github.com/algoetech/bookstore.git
cd bookstore || { echo "Failed to change directory to 'bookstore'"; exit 1; }

Step 2: Install Dependencies (if any)

Since this project primarily uses PHP and MySQLi, we'll ensure PHP is installed.

if ! command -v php &> /dev/null; then
    echo "PHP is not installed. Please install PHP 7.4 or later and try again."
    exit 1
fi

Step 3: Configure the Database

echo "Step 3: Configuring the database..."
read -rp "Enter your MySQL username: " db_user
read -rsp "Enter your MySQL password: " db_pass
echo
read -rp "Enter the path to your SQL file (e.g., path/to/database.sql): " sql_file

if command -v mysql &> /dev/null; then
    mysql -u "$db_user" -p"$db_pass" -e "CREATE DATABASE bookstore;"
    mysql -u "$db_user" -p"$db_pass" bookstore < "$sql_file"
else
    echo "MySQL is not installed. Please install MySQL and try again."
    exit 1
fi

Update database configuration in config.php

echo "Updating database configuration..."
cat > config.php <<EOL
<?php
define('DB_SERVER', 'localhost');
define('DB_USERNAME', '$db_user');
define('DB_PASSWORD', '$db_pass');
define('DB_NAME', 'bookstore');
