This project demonstrates a full-stack application with a backend built using Java, Spring Boot, and MongoDB, and a frontend developed with React. The application allows users to view movie data, play trailers, and add reviews.
- Built with Java, Spring Boot, and MongoDB.
- Implements RESTful APIs to fetch movie data and manage reviews.
- Uses Spring Data MongoDB for database interactions.
- Handles async operations using
async/await for non-blocking, efficient requests. - APIs tested using Postman with thorough validations and error handling.
- Built with React.
- Uses Axios for HTTP requests to the backend API.
- Displays movies in a carousel using Material-UI.
- Plays movie trailers using React Player.
- Allows users to add and view reviews dynamically.
The backend is structured with multiple layers:
- Controller Layer: Manages incoming API requests.
- Service Layer: Contains business logic for managing movie and review data.
- Repository Layer: Interfaces with MongoDB using Spring Data.
Async Operations: APIs are designed with async processing to ensure smooth user experience, using Java’sCompletableFuture and async methods for optimal performance.
Postman Testing: All APIs were rigorously tested using Postman to validate functionality and ensure reliable data retrieval and storage. Below is a screenshot demonstrating testing of the APIs:
Frontend Testing: React frontend components were tested with live API calls to ensure data flows seamlessly between backend and frontend.
