Installation

Oracle Installation

The database used in this app is Oracle 19c Database. If you don't have Oracle installed in your system, you need to install it first to run the app in your system. To install Oracle, you can follow the given link below:

Oracle Installation Guideline for Windows 10

After completing the installation, you will need to setup the database schema. You can create your own schema and provide the credentials into the serverInformation.js file located in the /server directory.

Run the snippets below in SQL Plus while being connected as sysdba.

  CREATE USER c##brightmate_library IDENTIFIED BY root;
  GRANT CREATE SESSION TO c##brightmate_library;
  GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES TO c##brightmate_library;

#to your schema by providing these credentials:

  connect c##brightmate_library;
  password: root

In this way, your schema will be ready to hold the database tables. The SQL Dump file is provided in the root directory. Import them into your newly created schema.

For database creation and table configuration, we have used Navicat Premium 16.
