Step 1 : Download the following softwares.
- JAVA 8
- MAVEN (VERSION : 3.8.5)
- TOMCAT
- ECLIPSE (Enterprise Edition) (VERSION : 2020-06)
- SQLyog
- GITBASH
- TORTOISE GIT
- POSTMAN
- GOOGLE CLOUD SDK (VERSION : 426.00)

Step 2 : Add User variables & System variable for softwares installed :

FOR USER VARIABLES :

- Extract Maven --> add the extracted folder to 'C' Drive in Program Files.
- Once setting maven in C drive, set its path in enviroment variable :
VARIABLE 1 : M2_HOME (set its path and add it in user variable) as shown below
FOR EXAMPLE : M2_HOME → C:\Program Files\apache-maven-3.8.5-bin\apache-maven-3.8.5
VARIBALE 2 : MAVEN_HOME (set its path and add it in user variable) as shown below
FOR EXAMPLE : MAVEN_HOME → C:\Program Files\apache-maven-3.8.5-bin\apache-maven-3.8.5


- Now Accordingly, after installing java set its path in enviroment variable with variable name JAVA_HOME and set its path as shown above.
FOR EXAMPLE : JAVA_HOME → C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_202

FOR SYSTEM VARIABLES :
After installation check the below paths if it is present in your system variable or not :
1. JAVA PATH (FOR 1.8.0)

2. GCLOUD SDK (download its java components as well)

3. TORTOISE GIT

4. MAVEN

5. GIT
If not added after installation, add it.

Step 3 : After installing GCLOUD SDK,
We need to open its gcloud shell and run the below command :

gcloud components install app-engine-java

Step 4 : In Eclipse --> Install Enterprise Edition.

Clone the Project firslty :
--> Goto Gitlab --> https://gitlab.com/eshopbox-team/cloudendpointssampleproject/-/tree/master
--> Clone With HTTPS
--> Goto your computer and Clone it using --> Git Clone command in Git bash or Clone option provided by TortoiseGit on Right Clicking.

After eclipse installation :

Go to Help → eclipse marketplace → search for “Google Cloud Tools for Eclipse“
Then download it and sign in to the gcloud platform via eclipse.

Run the project :
--> File --> Import --> Maven --> Existing Maven Project --> Browse & Select the project.
--> Goto Application.properties --> check the jdbc connection, wheather you want local, stagging or prod connection...modify here.
--> Select the project --> Refresh
--> Select Project --> Maven --> Project Update
Then run the following commands by opening cmd of the project you have run :

  1. gcloud config set project {{gcpProjectid}}

  2. gcloud auth application-default login

  3. mvn clean package

  4. mvn endpoints-framework:openApiDocs

  5. gcloud endpoints services deploy target/openapi-docs/openapi.json

  6. mvn appengine:run

GCP project id for staging : eshopbox-test-project

GCP project id for production : eshopbox-test-project-prod

Select Zone : asia-south1-a

Step 5 : SQLyog :

--> Now create a new Connection Local Connection : - File --> New Connection --> New - Connection Name : Example Local (can be anything) - host Address : localhost - Username : root - Password : (can be blank of as per your choice ) - Port : 3306 NOTE : Username, Password etc. must match the credentials provided in Application.properties file. NOTE : If you are not able to create a local host..and getting a popup error regarding the same....check that only 1 project in open with same credentials as this project. Due to same port number used by other projects...it might cause an issue. --> After creating the new connection...you can either create your own tables..or import tables from stagging or prod environmnets.
