Dentest was a web application designed to provide learning resources, mainly a database of questions and answers, to student dentists. Random quizes can be generated from the question bank, with options to limit the questions presented to a subset of the topics and alter the size of the quiz.
Users would subscribe yearly for access using Braintree to manage payments. Free users would have access to a limited subset of the questions available to try the app out, while paid users could access all questions and generate their own quizzes.
I began on Dentest as a side project with a friend who is a dentist. Ultimately, we decided not to progress with it. The code in this repository is presented as it was at the time we abandoned the project, at which time I was in the process of trying to produce a deployable version to test as a prototype on a live server. Needless to say, the code is far from perfect and would require significant work to productionize. I have included rough instructions for setting up the required dependencies and running the server and front-end.
Dentest was built using Django 1.7.8 and AngularJS 1.3.14. The project was created with the CG-Angular Yeoman generator. The linked documentation contains install instructions.
Dependencies can be found in:
frontend/bower.jsonfor Bower dependenciesfrontend/package.jsonfor NPM componentsserver/backend_requirements.txtfor the Django/Python dependencies
Run the Jasmine tests for the Angular front-end by running grunt test from tgit he frontend folder.
Before running the server tests, you must set up the database first by running python manage.py migrate. Then use
python manage.py test
First start the server using python manage.py runserver. If this has succeeded use grunt server to start the front-end.
The web app will be available at localhost:9001 and the Django server is available at localhost:8000.
