All-in-One Medical Portal Platform 🌐💉

Database and Web Programming Project

Welcome to our Medical Portal Platform. This project aims to provide a user-friendly platform for managing medical information and services.

Project Description 🏥

The All-in-One Medical Portal Platform is designed to streamline the healthcare experience for both patients and practitioners. Here's what it brings to the table:

• User-Friendly Interface: A platform where patients can easily schedule appointments, request prescription refills, access medical records, and make online payments for treatments.

• Access Groups: Ensures a secure environment with access groups for healthcare providers, front desk staff, and patients.

• Comprehensive Database: Tracks prescriptions, medical records, payments, charts, and vaccines, providing a centralized hub for healthcare information.

• Appointment Scheduler: Simplifies appointment management for both patients and healthcare providers.

• Reminder System: Includes a reminder system for important tasks like scheduling the next dental cleaning or getting a vaccine booster.

• Payment Feature: Secure online payment functionality for convenient treatment transactions.

Getting Started 🚀

• You MUST create a demo database using postgresql. Requirements are as follows
  • Name: medportal
  • Root User: postgres
  • Root Password: password123
  • Host: localhost
  • Port: 5432

There are a couple of methods to run our demo website.

• (Preferred) Run in Docker container (2 methods)
  • Pull git repository, navigate to Medportal, run docker-compose build, run docker-compose up, navigate to http://localhost:8000.
  • Pull docker container from dockerhub (blakep7/medportal:latest). Run the container with the specifications listed in the docker compose file in this repository.
• Run on Localhost
  • Pull the git repo, create a python virtual environment, install python requirements found in requirements.txt, navigate to frontend folder, install node dependencies, npm run build, navigate back to the Medportal directory, run py/python3 manage.py migrate, run py/python3 manage.py runserver localhost:8000, navigate to http://localhost:8000 on internet.

🛠️ Our Stack

Backend

• Django: We utilize Django, a high-level Python web framework, for our backend, designing custom CRUD REST APIs tailored to our application's needs.

Database

• Postgresql: Our choice for database management due to its robust features, reliability, and scalability, ensuring efficient data storage and retrieval for our application.

Authentication

• JWT: Implemented JSON Web Tokens (JWT) for user authentication, providing secure and stateless authentication mechanisms.

Frontend

• React: Our primary frontend framework, chosen for its component-based architecture and efficient rendering, enabling us to create dynamic and interactive user interfaces.
• Bootstrap 5: Utilized for frontend styling, offering a responsive and mobile-first design approach, ensuring consistency and usability across devices.

State Management

• Redux: Employed for state management, facilitating predictable state management and enabling us to maintain a single source of truth for our application's data.

Additional Tools

• Djoser: Integrated with Django for user authentication, providing ready-to-use authentication views and endpoints, reducing development time and effort.
