Version 1.0 of the Front end is complete.

Currently, to successfully install this app you will need to:

• Create a folder the following folder: C:\walkthrough or change the installService.js and uninstallService.js later on
• Clone this repository into whatever folder you decided above
• Create a Clerk account and create an app
• When setting up Clerk configure as follows:
  • disable Email Address and Username
  • Require Name
  • Use Microsoft as a SSO connection
• For Clerk, you will need your apps API keys:

NEXT_PUBLIC_CLERK_PUBLISHABLE_KEY
CLERK_SECRET_KEY

• Install MongoDB, MongoShell, and follow the setup
• MongoDB will need a user to write to a database called Logs make sure to save these for later User Creation Instructions. For example, have an admin accoount and a user DataEntry that only has readWrite access to Logs
• Node installed and restart OS
• Open admin level command line and in the main folder with nestjs-back-end and next-front-end run:

corepack enable pnpm
corepack use pnpm@latest
pnpm install -r -w

• Install nestjs-back-end:
  • You will need the MongoDB user name and password you created earlier
  • Create a .env file in nestjs-back-end and create the following keys:

DOMAIN=<address of Next server> ie http://<ip-address or server name>/
CLERK_PUBLISHABLE_KEY=key(starts with pk)
CLERK_SECRET_KEY=key(starts with sk)
MONGO_URI="mongodb://<user>:<password>@127.0.0.1:27017/?authMechanism=DEFAULT"
MONGO_DEBUG=false

• In the next-front-end folder create a .env.local file
• In the .env.local the following variables need to be created:

NEXT_PUBLIC_API_URL=http://<server name or ip address>:8000/api/
NEXT_PUBLIC_CLERK_PUBLISHABLE_KEY (starts with pk)
CLERK_SECRET_KEY (starts with sk)
NEXT_PUBLIC_CLERK_SIGN_IN_URL=/sign-in
NEXT_PUBLIC_CLERK_SIGN_UP_URL=/sign-up
NEXT_PUBLIC_CLERK_SIGN_UP_FORCE_REDIRECT_URL=/back-end/sign-up

• In an admin commandline console, navigate the nestjs-back-end folder:

pnpm build

• Copy the .env into dist then in admin console:

node installService.js

• Navigate to next-front-end and run the doploy.ps1 powershell script. I recommend looking through it and changing it how you like.

• Server should be up and running
