@divyanshu887
No worries, concentrate on your exam and all the best :)

For the beginner thing, I have attached a great learning source and it is what I want in my project too, so, take a look at it and of course I am here to guide as well

[divyanshu887]

@Mayank0255 i am unable to set up the project can you guide me. i dont understand what is the use of .env file

[Mayank0255]

@divyanshu887

So, you have to setup .env file as it will be consisting of your mysql database credentials which will stay in your local machine and won't be going public to everyone. If that isn't there then you won't be able to connect with the database.

[divyanshu887]

@Mayank0255 to solve the issue , i have make a skeleton folder in src in which i will have to make skeleton of all the components mentioned above and import them to their jsx files .
is this process correct or not ?

[Mayank0255]

@divyanshu887

For now make the skeletons directory in the components directory and then proceed as you mentioned

[divyanshu887]

@Mayank0255 after creating env file , i am unable to find way to setup it locally. can you tell what to do next ?

@Mayank0255 i am unable to set up the project can you guide me. i dont understand what is the use of .env file

[Mayank0255]

@divyanshu887 Are you following the guidelines mentioned properly?

[Mayank0255]

Have filled your .env file exactly like .env.example? and have added the required credentials too?

[divyanshu887]

yes i have installed mysql and created a new database and filled it as described in env.example

[Mayank0255]

What error are you getting while running?

[divyanshu887]

i am getting this on running the command written in readme in the directory where i have saved env file

error code ENOENT
error syscall open
error path /home/imposter/react/package.json
error errno -2
error enoent ENOENT: no such file or directory, open '/home/imposter/react/package.json'
error enoent This is related to npm not being able to find a file.

@divyanshu887

So, this is not an .env error as right now you are just install deps.

I am assuming that you have node, npm and mysql installed in your pc properly and functioning properly too

1. Is the terminal set to the path of the directory? I not then do so and run again

2. If npm run installDep is not working then first run npm install and then cd client and then run npm install

it worked

[divyanshu887]

@Mayank0255 getting this when trying to run 'npm run server'. please tell what i am doing wrong here

[Mayank0255]

You are doing setting up your .env wrong, so, send me ss of that.

P.S. - Is it your first time working on node and react?

[divyanshu887]

@Mayank0255 yes it is my first time working with react and node js. i have never used mysql so i am unable to set up the connection. i tried to solve the error but failed. i think first i should learn mysql and gain some experience in nodejs and react then i will be able to solve these issues .as i have not been able to solve the issue ,you can unassign me this issue for now, after learning the techstacks i will try to contribute in this project
sorry for wasting your time

[Mayank0255]

@divyanshu887 Sure man, will be waiting for your contribution

[Rezanop]

Hello,
If @divyanshu887 isn't working in this issue anymore, i'd love to work on it!

[Mayank0255]

@Rezanop yes @divyanshu887 is not working on this issue anymore, should I assign it to you?

If yes then in how many days can I expect a PR?

[Rezanop]

I'll need to get familiar with skeleton api.
So I'm hoping to finish in a week or less if it's fine with you

[Mayank0255]

@Rezanop Yes that's fine with me, I just want contributors that will actually work on the project as some of them just take up issues and then forget about it.

I am assigning it to you then 🎉

Let me know if you get stuck anywhere here on my discord Shadowsaver#9665.
