Golden Horizon Bank (GHB)

Description

Golden Horizon Bank (GHB) is a simple Banking System website developed with Django and Supabase as the database. It was created as part of a 1st-semester Python project. The website enables users to create accounts, log in, and perform basic banking operations, including transferring points to other accounts using the receiver's ID and name. Additionally, users can change their passwords and edit their profiles once logged in.

Setup Instructions

Prerequisites

• Python 3.x
• Supabase project credentials

Installation

1. Clone the repository from GitHub:

   git clone https://github.com/Ashenoy64/Banking-System.git
   cd Banking-System

   or

   Download the project as a ZIP file from the GitHub repository:

   • Go to the GitHub repository URL: https://github.com/Ashenoy64/Banking-System
   • Click on the green "Code" button.
   • Select "Download ZIP" from the dropdown menu.
   • Extract the ZIP file to a local directory and navigate to the project folder.

2. Create a .env file at the root of the project and add the following keys:

   SECRET='<YOUR_RANDOM_SECRET_KEY>'
   SUPA_PASSWORD=<YOUR_SUPABASE_PASSWORD>
   SUPA_HOST=<YOUR_SUPABASE_HOST>
   SUPA_DATABASE=<YOUR_SUPABASE_DATABASE>
   SUPA_PORT=<YOUR_SUPABASE_PORT>
   SUPA_USER=<YOUR_SUPABASE_USER>
   

   • To generate the <YOUR_RANDOM_SECRET_KEY>:

     • You can use an online Django secret key generator like https://djecrety.ir/.
     • Alternatively, you can generate it using the Django management shell:
       • Open a terminal or command prompt and navigate to the root directory of your Django project.
       • Run the following command to enter the Django management shell:

         python manage.py shell
         

       • Once you are inside the shell, execute the following Python code to generate the random secret key:

         from django.core.management.utils import get_random_secret_key
         
         secret_key = get_random_secret_key()
         print(secret_key)

       • Copy the generated secret key and paste it as <YOUR_RANDOM_SECRET_KEY> in your .env file.

   • Replace <YOUR_SUPABASE_PASSWORD>, <YOUR_SUPABASE_HOST>, <YOUR_SUPABASE_DATABASE>, <YOUR_SUPABASE_PORT>, and <YOUR_SUPABASE_USER> with your Supabase project credentials.

3. Install the required Python packages:

   pip install -r requirements.txt

4. Create the required tables on the Supabase database:

   python manage.py migrate

5. Run the development server:

   python manage.py runserver

6. Access the Golden Horizon Bank website on your local server at http://127.0.0.1:8000/.
