Downloading Wildlife Drones and Flight Plan

• Clone or download the repository on the GitHub page.
  
• Select Download ZIP.
  
• Once the zip file has been downloaded unzip the folder.
  

Edit /client/src/environments/{environment.prod.ts|environment.ts} and change the server key to your url.

We recommend using an https scheme.

Development configuration can be made in a .env file. The easiest way to set it up is to copy-paste the .env.example file and rename it to .env.

In production, a .env file should not exist. The environment variables should be set as actual environment variables wherever your production server provides this functionality.

Example:

APP_NAME=Wildlife Drones
PORT=3000
SECRET=secretKey
TOKEN_EXPIRES=7d
RESERVE_NAME=Kruger National Park
CELL_SIZE=500
ADMIN_EMAIL=drbam301@gmail.com
DEFAULT_ADMIN_PASSWORD=password
DB_TYPE=postgres
DB_USER=postgres
DB_HOST=localhost
DB_PORT=5432
DB_PASS=password
DB_DATABASE=drones
MAIL_HOST=smtp.gmail.com
MAIL_PORT=465
MAIL_USERNAME=drbam301@gmail.com
MAIL_PASSWORD=shhhhhh
OTP_PATTERN=[a-z\d]{3}-[a-z\d]{3}
OTP_EXPIRES=120
OTP_ATTEMPTS=3

• APP_NAME - the name of the application that will be shown to the user in emails
• PORT - the port the server should listen on
• SECRET - a random string used as a private key for jwt tokens. This should be sufficiently long (e.g 256 or 512 characters) and random.
• RESERVE_NAME - the name of the reserve as per OpenStreetMaps
• CELL_SIZE - the size (width and height) of a cell in metres
• ADMIN_EMAIL - the default administrator email. This account can be used to create other accounts.
• DEFAULT_ADMIN_PASSWORD - the default administrator password - can be changed in future.
• DB_TYPE - database type. E.g. "postgres" or "mysql" or "sqlite"
• DB_USER - database username
• DB_HOST - database host. Use 127.0.0.1 over localhost to eliminate DNS overhead.
• DB_PORT - database port
• DB_PASS - database user password
• DB_DATABASE - name of the database
• MAIL_HOST - the SMTP mail host (e.g. smtp.gmail.com)
• MAIL_PORT - the mail server port (465 is recommended as TLS is always enabled)
• MAIL_USERNAME - the email address used to log into the mail server
• MAIL_PASSWORD - the password used to log into the mail server
• OTP_PATTERN - A regular expression pattern to generate a random one-time-pin from
• OTP_EXPIRES - How long (in seconds) an OTP lasts. This is also the time the user has to wait before login attempts reset.
• OTP_ATTEMPTS - The number of login attempts the user gets before being locked out until the one time pin expires.
