About The Project

(back to top)

Introduction

This is a full-stack web application built with NodeJS and Express that allows an contractor to manage their tool crib. Currently at v2.0!

Features

• Add and archive tools (No-Deletion Philosophy)
  • Add tools individually from anywhere, or batch import tools to save time
• Search for tools by a variety of fields
• Add and delete service assignments (employees, vehicles, or jobsites)
• Checkout and check-in tools to/from service assignments (employees, vehicles, jobsites, and stockrooms)
  • Status is derived via service assignment type.
• Users can set personal theme and sorting preferences
• Generate reports on tool usage and inventory levels (coming soon...)

Technologies Used

• NodeJS
• Express
• MongoDB (mongoose)
• TailwindCSS + DaisyUI (for styling)

Getting Started

Prerequisites

• NodeJS 22+
• MongoDB Target

Docker-Compose

1. In the repo, there is a docker-compose folder. Either download, or copy the contents of both the docker-compose.yml and compose.env to the same folder on your local machine.
2. Edit the contents of the .env file to your environment
3. In a terminal, run docker compose up -d to start the containers.

Note: This is configured with /data/db and /data/configdb persistent storage volumes. No secrets are left unencrypted at rest, other than in your .env file.

Node.js Native

Note: this assumes you have your own MongoDB to point TK at.

1. Clone the master branch either from the GH repo Link or via terminal git clone https://github.com/DaveLuhman/toolkeeper.git

2. Duplicate the .env.sample file and fill in the details to match your environment a. note the .env file in the monorepo is in ./src/config/.env

3. In a terminal, run npm install to perform a clean install of the node dependancies

4. Next, we'll run npm run build:css to build the tailwind CSS files

5. Finally, we'll run npm start to start the services
