Receipt Tracker

Production: v.3.0: OCR enabled

A simple app for recording and tracking receipts. Java-based backend and API, React frontend.

This project is built on Adam Fleming's skeleton, a super simple foundation for building a scalable, RESTful HTTP server.

Building with Docker

1. Run ./gradlew distTar this tells gradle to make a .tar file containing the java application code and all dependencies
2. Run docker build -t myapp . this runs the Dockerfile, and builds an image tagged with myapp. See all images with docker images
3. Run docker run -p 80:8080 myapp this runs the myapp image, routing port 80 on Your Machine to port 8080 in the container

Pushing to DockerHub

1. Tag your image: docker tag myapp YOUR_DOCKERHUB_NAME/myapp
2. Push: docker push YOUR_DOCKERHUB_NAME/myapp

Pushing to AWS (after setup)

1. Run docker images to find the tag for your AWS cluster. It'll be something along the lines of YOUR_ACCOUNT_ID.dkr.ecr.YOUR_REGION.amazonaws.com/YOUR_APP_NAME
2. Run gradle build.
3. Re-build an image tagged for your AWS cluster: docker build -t YOUR_AWS_TAG .
4. Push the image: docker push YOUR_AWS_TAG

You may need to log into AWS again. If prompted, enter aws ecr get-login --no-include-email for Docker 17.06+.
