This project was initiated for educational purposes, with the primary objective being to delve deeper into technologies such as Django, PostgreSQL, Redis, and various others
- Python/Django/Django-ORM
- PostgreSQL
- Redis
- Celery
- API
- HTML/CSS/Bootstrap
In this project we are using PostgreSQL as main Database, Redis for message broker, cache some data, Celery for delayed tasks, API there is using for OAuth 2.0 and Stripe
Our project has 7 self-written models, and other django and OAuth models.
The User model represents users of the application, storing essential user information such as usernames, email addresses, names, and account status. It plays a central role in authentication and user management.
The Product model represents items or products available in the application. It includes details like product name, description, category, price, and an image for product representation.
The ProductCategory model categorizes products into different groups or categories. It helps organize and classify products for easier navigation and search.
The Order model captures information about user orders, including the user who placed the order, the products included in the order, the order date, and the total amount for the order.
The EmailVerification model is responsible for managing email verification requests. It associates a unique token with a user, enabling them to verify their email address for account activation and security.
The Review model allows users to provide feedback and ratings for products. It records the user who wrote the review, the product being reviewed, the rating given, and any written comments or reviews.
The Basket model represents a user's shopping basket or cart, containing the products they have selected for purchase. It helps users keep track of their selected items before checkout.
In this project, Redis is used to cache product pages and categories on the website.
Celery was used for sending email verifications as delayed tasks to optimize this process.
On this landing page, you can find current discounts and available stock.
You have the options to sign in or sign up, navigate to the products page, or add products to your basket.
Additionally, you can see filtered categories and six products, with each product belonging to its respective category.
On the products page, we can see products, a right-side filtered categories, and a block for sorting by criteria.
There is a working pagination system, allowing us to view only six products per page.
Additionally, we can observe how the sorting feature functions.
The search system, which also
includes pagination and sorting options, is in operation.
On the product page, you can add products to the cart, read product descriptions, and write or read reviews.
Here we can see how to leave review with text and star ratings
On the login page, you can choose how you want to log in—either by using your created account or
by using social networks such as GitHub, Facebook, or Gmail, it was made with using OAuth 2.0.
As wee see, there is login by using Gmail
After a user signs in, an email verification message is sent to the email address associated
with their registered account.
If a user forgets their password, they can easily reset it by following the 'Forgot Password' process.
In our Django project, we have seamlessly integrated Stripe as our preferred payment processing solution.
Stripe offers a robust and developer-friendly platform that enhances the payment experience for our users
while ensuring the highest standards of security.
After we successfully make a payment, we can navigate to the orders page and view all of our orders,
including their status and total sum.
This project represents a comprehensive exploration of web development using Django, encompassing a wide range of essential features and technologies. Through this journey, we delved into building a robust authentication system, enabling users to effortlessly sign in or sign up. Moreover, we embraced the power of third-party services like Gmail for user registration, offering a seamless onboarding experience.
Our project seamlessly integrates the Stripe payment system, ensuring secure and efficient payment processing on the website. We also harnessed the capabilities of Redis for data caching, optimizing performance and user experience. Celery was employed to manage delayed tasks, enhancing the project's responsiveness.
With an emphasis on user-friendly navigation, we extensively implemented pagination using Django's Paginator class. Additionally, we empowered users to search for products and sort them based on various criteria, further enhancing their interaction with the platform.
Overall, this project not only deepened our understanding of Django but also equipped us with practical skills in web development, authentication, payment processing, caching, task management, and user experience optimization.
