Angular2 and MVC

Angular2 is a framework which has its roots in MVC. Unfortunately its view and controller go by different names. The updated names are:

• View - Template
• Controller - Component

User Requirements

Running the Server Locally

Server Requirements

• Ubuntu 16.04.02 LTS 64 Bit

Install the Prerequisites

$ sudo apt-get install -y git curl

Install Cassandra

Loosely based off of this DataStax tutorial.

1. Install the prerequisites

$ sudo apt-get install -y openjdk-8-jre

2. Add the DataStax repository

$ echo "deb http://debian.datastax.com/community stable main" | sudo tee -a /etc/apt/sources.list.d/cassandra.sources.list

3. Add the DataStax trusted key

$ curl -L https://debian.datastax.com/debian/repo_key | sudo apt-key add -

4. Install Cassandra

$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get install -y cassandra

5. Reboot your computer

Install Node.js

Adapted from https://nodejs.org/en/download/package-manager/

1. Add the Node.js repository

$ curl -sL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_6.x | sudo -E bash -
sudo apt-get install -y nodejs

2. Install Node.js

$ sudo apt-get install -y nodejs

3. Install Gulp

$ sudo npm install -g gulp

Download the Source Code Repository

1. Change to your home directory

$ cd ~

2. Clone the repository using your UCSD Email address and password

$ git clone https://git.ucsd.edu/ccrutchf/team34-cse110.git

3. Change into the Repository Directory

$ cd ~/team34-cse110

Setup the Database

1. Add the tables to cassandra

$ cd ~/team34-cse110/database_queries
$ cqlsh
cqlsh> SOURCE 'Cassandra Starter.cql'
cqlsh> exit

Scrape the Courses, Departments, and Degrees

The following will be done in two terminals 1> will be used to denote the first while 2> will be used to denote the second.

1. Change to the sraper-main directory

1> cd ~/team34-cse110/scraper-main

2. Install the dependencies for scraper-main

1> npm install

3. Start the server

1> npm start

4. Scrape the courses. Wait for DONE to be displayed in the first console. This will be a longer running process. Expect it to take between five and ten minutes.

2> curl http://localhost:3001/scrape/courses

5. Scrape the degrees. Wait for inserted to be displayed in the first console. This process will be very quick.

2> curl http://localhost:3001/scrape/departments

6. Scrape the degrees. Wait for inserted between each curl call. Each curl call should be very quick.

2> curl http://localhost:3001/scrape/degree/bio
2> curl http://localhost:3001/scrape/degree/cse
2> curl http://localhost:3001/scrape/degree/ece
2> curl http://localhost:3001/scrape/degree/math
2> curl http://localhost:3001/scrape/degree/mus

Start the Main Website

1. Open the main website's source directory

$ cd ~/team34-cse110/server-main

2. Install the dependencies

$ npm install

3. Build the frontend bundles. This process can take up to a minute and a half.

$ gulp

4. Start the website.

$ npm start

5. Open http://localhost:3000 in Chrome.

Known Issues

• If your machine loses network connection during a scrape, it will incorrectly report that classes cannot be found. To address this, reexecute the scrape.
