In this app, I create an Amazon-like storefront with the MySQL skillst. The app will take in orders from customers and deplete stock from the store's inventory.
The app includes three js files : bamazonCustomer, bamazonManager, and bamazonSupervisor
-
create a Table inside of the database (which I called it bamazon) called
products
. -
The products table ave each of the following columns:
-
item_id (unique id for each product)
-
product_name (Name of product)
-
department_name
-
price (cost to customer)
-
stock_quantity (how much of the product is available in stores)
-
-
Populate this database with around 10 different products.
-
Then create a Node application called
bamazonCustomer.js
. Running this application will first display all of the items available for sale. Include the ids, names, and prices of products for sale. -
The app then prompt users with two messages.
- The first should ask them the ID of the product they would like to buy.
- The second message should ask how many units of the product they would like to buy.
-
Once the customer has placed the order, the application check if your store has enough of the product to meet the customer's request.
- If not, the app should log a phrase like
Insufficient quantity!
, and then prevent the order from going through.
- If not, the app should log a phrase like
-
However, if the store does have enough of the product, the app fulfill the customer's order.
- This means updating the SQL database to reflect the remaining quantity.
- Once the update goes through, it shows the customer the total cost of their purchase.
-
Create a new Node application called
bamazonManager.js
. Running this application will:-
List a set of menu options:
-
View Products for Sale
-
View Low Inventory
-
Add to Inventory
-
Add New Product
-
-
If a manager selects
View Products for Sale
, the app should list every available item: the item IDs, names, prices, and quantities. -
If a manager selects
View Low Inventory
, then it should list all items with an inventory count lower than five. -
If a manager selects
Add to Inventory
, your app should display a prompt that will let the manager "add more" of any item currently in the store. -
If a manager selects
Add New Product
, it should allow the manager to add a completely new product to the store.
-
-
Create a new MySQL table called
departments
. It includes the following columns:-
department_id
-
department_name
-
over_head_costs (A dummy number you set for each department)
-
-
Modify the products table so that there's a product_sales column, and modify
bamazonCustomer.js
app so that when a customer purchases anything from the store, the price of the product multiplied by the quantity purchased is added to the product's product_sales column. -
Create another Node app called
bamazonSupervisor.js
. Running this application will list a set of menu options:-
View Product Sales by Department
-
Create New Department
-
-
When a supervisor selects
View Product Sales by Department
, the app display a summarized table in their terminal/bash window. Use the table below as a guide.
department_id | department_name | over_head_costs | product_sales | total_profit |
---|---|---|---|---|
01 | Electronics | 10000 | 20000 | 10000 |
02 | Clothing | 60000 | 100000 | 40000 |
- The
total_profit
column is calculated on the fly using the difference betweenover_head_costs
andproduct_sales
.total_profit
should not be stored in any database.
