### Local Installation

To set up the Virtual Bank project locally, follow these steps:

1. **Clone the repository**:
   ```bash
   git clone https://github.com/GoldenThrust/virtual-bank.git
   cd virtual-bank
   ```

2. **Create and activate a Python virtual environment:**

#### For Linux (Ubuntu):
    Install the necessary packages, create and activate the virtual environment:
    ```bash
    sudo apt install python3.10-venv
    python3 -m venv venv
    source venv/bin/activate
    ```
    ### For macOS:
    Install Python 3 if not already installed (you can use Homebrew to install it), then create and activate the virtual environment:

``` bash
    python -m venv venv
    source venv/bin/activate
    ```
    
    If you don’t have Homebrew installed, you can install it by running:

```bash
    /bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/HEAD/install.sh)"
    brew install python
    ```
    ### For Windows:
    Open the command prompt (or PowerShell) as an administrator.
    Run the following commands to create and activate the virtual environment:
    ```bash
    python -m venv venv
    venv\Scripts\activate
    ```
    Install pip (if necessary) and upgrade it:
    For all platforms (Linux, macOS, Windows):

```bash
    python -m pip install --upgrade pip
    ```

Install project dependencies:
    Inside the activated virtual environment, run:

```bash
    python -m pip install -r requirements.txt
    ```
    ---
    **or**
    ---
    Run the installation script:
    ### For Linux/macOS:
    Make the installation script executable and run it:

```bash
    chmod +x install.sh
    ./install.sh
    ```

### For Windows:
    You may need to run the script manually if .sh files are not supported:

```bash
    bash install.sh
    ```

3. **Redis Setup for Django Channels**
   Register on Redis Cloud: Go to [Redis.io](https://redis.io) and register for a free Redis Cloud account. After registration, create a new Redis database instance and retrieve the connection URL.

This URL will be used to configure Redis in your Django project.

Add the Redis URL to your .env file: After setting up your Redis Cloud account, add the Redis connection URL to your .env file:

```ini
   REDIS_URL=redis://your_redis_cloud_url:6379
   ```

4. **Rename `.env-example` file in the root directory and edit environment variables**:
   ```ini
   DEV=TRUE
   SECRET_KEY=b309e3c3f0f6d3fb71a62617c100f59bb166a585b6b124d2
   JWT_KEY=00276c14dc8d8b2990a4b20024278907eccb2feec2a02eb8

DB_USER=postgres
   DB_PASSWORD=*******
   DB_NAME=virtual_bank
   DB_HOST=localhost
   DB_PORT=5432

PGHOST='example.us-east-2.aws.neon.tech'
   PGDATABASE='virtualbank'
   PGUSER='vb_owner'
   PGPASSWORD='*********'

REDIS_URL=redis://your_redis_cloud_url:6379
   ```

### Local Database Configuration:
   - Default Configuration (PostgreSQL):
        - Configure your PostgreSQL database by creating a user with the provided credentials (DB_USER and DB_PASSWORD).
        If you need help setting up PostgreSQL, you can refer to the [official documentation](https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/tutorial-start.html).
    - Other Databases:
        - For different databases, refer to the [Django documentation](https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/5.0/ref/databases/) on database setup.
   ```ini
   # .env file for local PostgreSQL
   DB_USER=your_db_username
   DB_PASSWORD=your_db_password
   DB_HOST=localhost
   DB_PORT=5432
   DB_NAME=virtualbank
   ```

### Neon Database Configuration (for Deployment)
   Neon is a cloud-native serverless Postgres solution that allows you to easily deploy scalable PostgreSQL databases. The Virtual Bank API project uses PostgreSQL for data management, and leveraging Neon for deployment provides a robust, cloud-based infrastructure with features like autoscaling, backups, and connection pooling.

Steps to Set Up Neon PostgreSQL for Your Virtual Bank Project:
   - **Create an Account on Neon**:
   Visit [Neon.tech](https://neon.tech) and register for a free account. Neon offers a free tier, which is perfect for development and testing purposes.
   Once your account is created, you can access the Neon dashboard, where you'll be able to create and manage your PostgreSQL instances.
   
   - **Create a PostgreSQL Instance**:
   From the Neon dashboard, click on the button to create a new PostgreSQL instance.
   You can configure the database with any specifications needed, such as the region (e.g., us-east-2), scaling preferences, and performance options.
   After creating the instance, Neon will provide you with the connection details, including the host, database name, user, and password. Keep these details secure, as they will be used in your application to connect to the remote PostgreSQL database.
   Configure Your .env File: After setting up the PostgreSQL instance on Neon, you'll need to configure the connection information in your project's .env file. The .env file stores environment variables, which provide your Django application with the necessary credentials to connect to Neon.

Here's an example of the necessary configuration:

```ini
   # .env file for Neon PostgreSQL
   DB_HOST='example.us-east-2.aws.neon.tech'  # The host address of your Neon database
   DB_NAME='virtualbank'                  # The name of your PostgreSQL database
   DB_USER='vb_owner'                         # The PostgreSQL user with access to the database
   DB_PASSWORD='your_password_here'           # The password for the database user
   ```
   - **DB_HOST**: The host address provided by Neon for your PostgreSQL instance.
   - **DB_NAME**: The name of the database you created (e.g., virtualbank).
   - **DB_USER**: The username associated with your PostgreSQL instance. Typically, this is the owner of the database (e.g., vb_owner).
   - **DB_PASSWORD**: The password that was set during the creation of the PostgreSQL instance.

Modify Django Database Settings: In your Django settings.py file, you will need to use the above environment variables to configure the connection to Neon PostgreSQL. Modify your DATABASES configuration like this:
   
   ```python
   # For Neon PostgreSQL (deployment)
  DATABASES = {
    'default': {
      'ENGINE': 'django.db.backends.postgresql',
      'NAME': os.getenv('DB_NAME'),
      'USER': os.getenv('DB_USER'),
      'PASSWORD': os.getenv('DB_PASSWORD'),
      'HOST':  os.getenv('DB_HOST'),
      'PORT':  os.getenv('DB_PORT'),
      'OPTIONS': {
        'sslmode': 'require',
      },
    }
  }
   ```
1. **Run migrations**:
   ```bash
   cd api/
   python manage.py makemigrations
   python manage.py migrate
   ```

**Clients**:
   ```bash
   cd clients/
   python manage.py makemigrations
   ```

2. **Start the development server**:
   **API**:
   ```bash
   cd api/
   python manage.py runserver
   ```

**Clients**:
   ```bash
   cd clients/
   python manage.py runserver 8040
   ```

Access the application in your browser at [http://localhost:8030/](http://localhost:8030/) or [http://localhost:8040/](http://localhost:8040/) for clients.

## Authentication (JWT and Cookies)

The Virtual Bank API uses JWT (JSON Web Token) for authentication. After logging in, you will receive a token that must be passed in all subsequent requests.

**Authorization Header**:
Include the JWT token in the Authorization header for all requests:
```http
Authorization: Bearer <your_token>
```

**As a Cookie**:
Alternatively, you can pass the JWT token as a Cookie:
```http
Cookie: jwt=<your_token>
```

## Usage

### Running the Development Server

To start the development server, navigate to the corresponding directories and run the following commands.

**For API**:
```bash
cd api/
python manage.py runserver
```

**For Clients**:
```bash
cd clients/
python manage.py runserver 8040
```

### Create User

To create a new user, use the following `curl` command:
```bash
curl -X POST http://localhost:8030/api/users/create/ \
-H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
-d '{
    "username": "max_miller",
    "password": "maxm1234",
    "first_name": "Max",
    "last_name": "Miller",
    "email": "max.miller@example.com",
    "address": "606 Oakwood Dr",
    "city": "Mountainview",
    "state": "CO",
    "country": "USA",
    "date_of_birth": "1998-01-22",
    "phone_number": "+199999999999"
}'
```

### Obtain JWT Token

After creating a user, obtain the JWT token by logging in:
```bash
curl -X POST http://localhost:8030/api/users/login/ \
-H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
-d '{
    "username": "max_miller",
    "password": "maxm1234"
}'
```

The response will contain the access token, which you can use for authenticated requests:
```json
{
    "access": "your_jwt_access_token",
    "refresh": "your_jwt_refresh_token"
}
```

### Create Account (using JWT token)

To create an account, use the JWT token obtained from the login step. Include the token in the Authorization header:
```bash
curl -X POST http://localhost:8030/api/accounts/create/ \
-H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
-H 'Authorization: Bearer your_jwt_access_token' \
-d '{
    "name": "Biznumd",
    "account_type": "CURRENT",
    "balance": 7500,
    "currency": "USD"
}'
```

Make sure to replace `your_jwt_access_token` with the actual token you received during login.

## WebSocket Integration

The API also supports WebSocket connections for real-time transaction and notification updates using Django Channels. Whenever a transaction is saved, a Django signal triggers a WebSocket event, providing instant updates to connected clients.

**Endpoint**: `/ws/socket/`

**Example Frontend WebSocket Listener**:
```javascript
const socket = new WebSocket("ws://localhost:8030/ws/socket/");

socket.addEventListener("message", (e) => {
  const data = JSON.parse(e.data);

console.log(data.content, data.event);
  
  if (data.event === "transaction") {
  } else if (data.event === "notification") {
  }
});
```

## Project Status

The API is mostly finished, and I am currently working on the frontend. It is now possible to make transfers and deposits on the frontend with real-time updates and chart visualization of transactions.
