Telecom Dashboard Server

Telecom Dashboard server is a backend for Telecom Dashboard, a demo client area of a telecommunications company. The backend is built using:

• Node.js
• Postgres
• JWT
• Express

Installation

git clone https://github.com/ischekoldin/telecom-dashboard-server.git

Usage

// to start on localhost, the default port is 5000
npm devstart
// to start in production
npm start

Important

• Telecom Dashboard saves session using cross site cookies. Modern browsers require those to be sent only through https://. Therefore, your frontend has to be accessed through https. However, if you host both frontend and backend on the same domain, you can set sameSite in src/DashBoard/DashBoard.js in REFRESH_TOKEN_COOKIE_OPTIONS to "lax" and secure option to "false"
• Make sure to set database options in environment variables, for example:

     PG_DB_USER = "jack"
     PG_DB_PASSWORD = "12345678"
     PG_DB_HOST = "db.amazonaws.com"
     PG_DB_PORT = "5432"
     PG_DB_NAME = "unnotate"

• Set frontend host in environment variables (ex: FRONTEND_HOST = "https://hostname.com"). If this variable isn't set, localhost:5000 is used as a frontend host. By default the backend only accepts connections from one address but you can can set an array or regex. It can be done in CORS_OPTIONS > origin that can be found in src/index.js.
