The Bookshop is a website designed to light out some of the best books writen over the last 100 years. Right now the shop has 101 product, writen by 26 authors.

The site will be deployed to Heroku and can then be viewed here.

This project is my fourth and final Milestone Project in the Code Institute's Fullstack Development program. The purpose of this project was to create an e-commerce site using the Django framework, static file hosting with AWS, and a functional payment system with Stripe. This e-commerce site is fully functional and could be used by a real beer distribution company with minimal setup.

Following these user stories, wireframes were drawn to provide a starting point and guidance throughout the development process.

Before starting the development of the application, its models and their relationships were delineated:

The application was built using bootstrap and its responsive grid system. The main layout is based on Lux, while Bootswatch works really well with bootstrap. Colors are chosen to stand out. The buttons needed to be an eye catcher and the normal elements needed to show some peace to the eye.

• the homepage shows a carousel that links to 3 different part on the site to give those products more attention.
• the homepage shows 3 new books chosen by the owner of the site that are very good seller.

• browser through different products and use filters for it.
• click on one of the category buttons to go directly to the category search page.

• read more information about the product.
• select the format you would like the book in and see live how the price changes.
• select the quantity and buy the product and send it to the shopping bag.

• remove/add/edit the products in your shopping bag.
• continue to the payout page.

• fill in your delivery address.
• fill in your creditcard information.
• continue to buy the product.

• see your order history.
• edit your personal information.

• browse through the different authors.
• filter them by name.

• read more about an other.
• go to the amazon page of the other.
• see the other books the author has writen.

• add/edit/delete books/categories

• add new authors functionallity
• add recommended books to book information page.
• a contact information field.

Testing was done manually throughout the development process.

Additionally, all code was validated in the following ways:

HTML - All pages were run through the W3C HTML Validator. Almost everything is fixed, but due to a lack of time there are still some things that need to bee= fixed.

CSS - CSS validation with the W3C Jigsaw Validator returned some expected and necessary flags from vendor extensions. Other than that, the code complies to the W3C standards.

These are the steps to deploy Beer WareHaus locally.

1. From the application's repository, click the "code" button and download the zip of the repository.

   Alternatively, you can clone the repository using the following line in your terminal:

   git clone https://github.com/waterrot/The-Bookstore.git
   

2. Access the folder in your terminal window and install the application's required modules using the following command:

   python -m pip -r requirements.txt
   

3. Create a file containing your environmental variables called env.py at the root level of the application. It will need to contain the following lines and variables:

   import os
   (the import code line will come here)
   

   Please note that you will need to update the SECRET_KEY with your own secret key, as well as the Untappd and strip keys and secret variables with those provided by those applications.

   If you plan on pushing this application to a public repository, ensure that env.py is added to your .gitignore file to protect your secrets.

4. The application can now be run locally. In your terminal, type the command python3 manage.py runserver. The application will be available in your browser at the address http://localhost:8000.

The media files were found on Google and Amazon. Not all photo's are allowed to be used for economic goals so if the shop wants to go live with real money the dataset need some changes. All the 101 books and 26 authors are found by hand and put into a json file. This took a really long time to collect the data and all the photo's with it.

• This site is meant for educational use.
• Felipe Alarcon for his helpful feedback and advice, and constant availability as a mentor
• Beer Warehause for the basic structure of the README file.
• Many thanks to the team at the Code Institute for their help throughout the development process.
