A todo-List App using Docker

This full-stack Todo application was built with React, Node.js, Express, and MongoDB. The application allows users to register, log in, create, update, delete, and filter their to-do tasks. It also supports image and file uploads to AWS S3.

Table of Contents

Architecture

The application is divided into two main parts:

  • Client: Built with React, Material UI, and React Router.
  • Server: Built with Node.js, Express, MongoDB, and AWS.

Features

  • User authentication (register and login)
  • Create, update, delete, and view todos
  • Filter todos by tags
  • Upload images and files to AWS S3
  • Download the attachment of todos
  • Protected routes for authenticated users

Prerequisites

  • Docker Desktop

AWS Setup

IAM and S3 Configuration

For AWS usage, IAM and S3 services are utilized:

  • IAM:

    • Created a group called admin1 and added a user called developer.
    • Generated access key and secret key for the developer user to enhance security.
    • This setup prevents direct usage of the root user account, ensuring a hierarchical and secure structure.
  • S3:

    • Used for general storage options for files and images.
    • All files and images uploaded by users are stored in an S3 bucket named mytestcasebucket

If you're new to S3, then follow these steps in detail.

Installation

  1. Clone the repository:
git clone https://github.com/ajeetraina/todo-list-local-cloud/
cd todo-list-local-cloud
  1. Using docker init:

Go to server/ and client/ folder and use docker init to build Dockerfile and compose file respectively.

  1. Setup Docker Compose File:

Open compose.yml and enter AWS credentials as per your environment. Assuming that you have S3 already configured, enter the bucket name.

   environment:
      - MONGODB_URI=mongodb://your_username:your_password@your_cluster_endpoint/todo-app # Replace with your actual connection string
      - JWT_SECRET=your-jwt-secret-key
      - AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID=XXXX
      - AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=XXX
      - AWS_REGION=us-east-1
      - S3_BUCKET_NAME=localbuck

Running npm install in each directory will set up all necessary dependencies specified in the package.json files.

Environment Variables

Create a .env file in the server directory and add the following environment variables:

# MongoDB URI
MONGODB_URI=<your-mongodb-uri>

# JWT Secret
JWT_SECRET=<your-jwt-secret>

# AWS S3 Configuration
AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID=<your-aws-access-key-id>
AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=<your-aws-secret-access-key>
AWS_REGION=<your-aws-region>
S3_BUCKET_NAME=<your-s3-bucket-name>

# Server Port
PORT=5000

API Endpoints

Auth Routes

  • POST /api/auth/register - Register a new user
  • POST /api/auth/login - Login and get a JWT token

Todo Routes

  • GET /api/todos - Get all todos for the authenticated user
  • POST /api/todos - Create a new todo
  • PUT /api/todos/:id - Update a todo
  • DELETE /api/todos/:id - Delete a todo

Database Structure

The application uses MongoDB as its NoSQL database. Below is the structure of the MongoDB collections:

  • Users Collection (test.users):

    • _id: ObjectId
    • username: String
    • password: String (hashed)
  • Todos Collection (test.todos):

    • _id: ObjectId
    • userId: ObjectId (reference to the user)
    • title: String
    • description: String
    • tags: Array of Strings
    • image: String (URL to the image in S3)
    • files: Array of Strings (URLs to the files in S3)
    • createdAt: Date
    • updatedAt: Date

Security Measures

  • The developer IAM user has limited permissions as compared to the root user, ensuring that the root account details remain secure.
  • Using IAM roles and policies, access to the S3 bucket is managed securely.
