The error was occurring as description, manufacturingDate, expiryDate, & size are defined as required in the product schema but those fields were missing in the products.json file. I have added those fields to the products.json file and the seed is now working.

#34 Issue

• Fixed Radix parameters error
• Changed nested ternary to regular expression
• changed == to === for type check
• Ignored console.log (it might be needed)

• Added command in Dockerfile for mac m1
• Changed dockerfile of front-end to working on hot reload
• Moved all high level function to models and only http verbs on the httpService. httpService.js is the layer, where developer can replace the axios with any other tools to communicate with API.

In connectWithDb function when we collect IS_MONGODB_CLOUD_URL from env it gives us a value as a string, So if we check is it false or true it always returns true. So I turn it into a boolean using the Boolean function.

Dear Foyzul Karim please create seed for users and roles Thanks.

Your name in Arabic Foyzul : فيض الله means : God's gift or God's Excess Giving or Generous of God Karim : كريم means :Generous

When I run npm run db:seed to seed the database, it is giving me below error.

You can get hits how to solve this in this video: https://youtu.be/UhXjemzbNSs?t=1192

Created a simple logger with winston. It will be logging to console like this...

It won't break any other codes. Now we can change all console.log to logger.info or logger.warn or logger.error .

Implemented authorization handler in expressjs middleware. Also added some permission entries as required. Rest of the entries will be taken care of later.

This boilerplate is the most comprehensive and production quality boilerplates on Github and so has set high expectations for everyone. I have recommended this boilerplate to many guys.

Few suggestions:

1. Pls upgrade to react-router v6. This will simplify boilerplate by some factor.
2. Moment.js has been deprecated in favor of new Intl API. You can also use React Intl npm package.
3. More descriptive and explainatory comments in server side code.

Task description and acceptance criteria

Complete the CRUD operation for Customer model. The model will have following schema name: { type: String, required: true }, phoneNumber: { type: String, required: true, unique: true}, email: { type: String, required: true, unique: true}, streetAddress: { type: String, required: true }, area: { type: String, required: true }, city: { type: String, required: true }, state: { type: String, required: true }, postcode: { type: String, required: true }, country : { type: String, required: true },

• Use modular architecture in server
• Email should be valid format and unique (must be checked before calling save to server)
• Follow existing work patterns (user or permission module works)
• no need to apply authorization middleware. We will do authorization in different task

Special note for devs:

• I Will update this issue if needed. Please drop a comment if you are unclear about anything
• You can include your friends in your forked repository so that you can work faster and can send the PR together
