FullStack Project: iiBnB

## Overview

iiBnB is an AirBnB clone, where users can view listings available to reserve and create listings to host. The user is able to navigate the site through the search bar and clicking on results provided by the search as well as scrolling through the map. The listings have information pertaining to the content of the listing so users can view details about the place before reserving.

Functionality & MVPs

In iiBi, users will be able to :

Sign up and sign into an account

View, create, and edit listings

Search an area for available listings

Scroll around the map to load more listings within bound

Make reservations/bookings for trips

Technologies, Libraries, APIs

This project will be implemented with the following technologies:

Ruby on Rails framework

Webpack to bundle the source JavaScript code

Babel to transpile JavaScript for older browsers

PostgresSQL Database

AWS S3 Media Storage

React, Redux, and jQuery to handle the state of the front-end

Google Maps API for map functionality and search autocomplete functionality

Future implementations/ work in progress

This project is still far from complete. Future functionalities to implement in the near future include:

A User profile to manage listings and other features in an intuitive manner

Being able to view, create, edit, and delete reviews

Snippets

Trips display

I created a noTrips() function to account for when a user is not logged in to load a different view for the component. It avoids throwing error when a user has no bookings/reservations made.

 noTrips(){
   return (this.props.bookings.length > 0) ? (   
   <>
       <div className="trip-splash"></div>        
       <div className="trips-item">
               {this.props.bookings.map ((booking,i) => (
                   <div className="bookings-container" key={i} >
                       <Link to={`/listings/${booking.listing.id}`}>

Booking/Reservation

An issue I had was when a user tried to submit a booking/reservation form while not logged in, it would throw an error so I created this to bypass having no logged-in user.

 componentDidMount(){
     if (this.props.currentUser) {
         this.setState({guest_id: this.props.currentUser.id})
     }
 }

 componentDidUpdate(prevProps){
     if ((this.props.currentUser) && (this.props.currentUser !== prevProps.currentUser)) {
         this.setState({guest_id:this.props.currentUser.id})
     }
 }

 handleSubmit(e) {
     e.preventDefault();

     if (this.props.currentUser) {
         this.props.createBooking(this.state);
         this.props.history.push(`/trips`)
         window.location.reload(true)
     } else {
         this.props.signup()
     }
 }
