Setting Up MongoDB

1. Create a MongoDB database and obtain your connection string.

2. Update the .env file with your MongoDB connection string as shown below:

   MONGO_DB_URI="your_mongodb_connection_string_here"

Setting Up Azure Blob Storage

1. Create an Azure Blob Storage account through the Azure Portal.

2. Obtain your storage account name and connection string.

3. Update the .env file with your Azure Blob Storage details:

   AZURE_STORAGE_ACCOUNT_NAME='your_storage_account_name_here'

   AZURE_STORAGE_ACCOUNT_KEY='your_storage_account_key_here'

Environment Variables

Create a .env file in the root of your project and update it with the necessary details as mentioned above. You can use the .env.example as a template:

cp .env.example .env

Running the Application
