This is a simple Spring Boot REST API for managing menu item data. The application uses PostgreSQL as the database

These instructions will help you set up and run the project on your local machine.

• Java Development Kit (JDK) installed (version 17 or later)
• PostgreSQL installed and running
  • *you can pick another database, but you'll have to do the necessary changes in pom.xml and application.properties
• Your favorite IDE (preferably IntelliJ) installed and running

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone https://github.com/abdelhalimjean/Bean-and-Berry-Spring-Boot-REST-API

2. Open the project folder in your favorite IDE

3. Open src/main/resources/application.properties and update the PostgreSQL connection properties if needed.

4. Ensure that the PostgreSQL server is running, and create the database BeanAndBerry and a user and password as mentioned in the application.properties file.

5. After running SpringBootRestApiApplication.java the application will be accessible at http://localhost:8080/ (you will see a "Whitelabel Error Page" don't worry, that's what's supposed to happen, it means everything is working)

6. After running the application, the tables will be automatically created, only then can you run the data initialization scripts.

The project includes an initial data script at src/main/resources/insert_menu_items.sql.

You can execute this scripts in your database to have some data to play with, otherwise you'll have to insert the data yourself.
