About

Context

Silicon Map is a Java desktop application developed as part of a group project (two people) during the second year of university studies.

Project Objective

The goal of this project is to provide a monitoring application for machines in a data center. Some details are intentionally simplified, as this project is not intended for production use and we are not data center management experts. Our main objective is to demonstrate our ability to develop a professional application within a limited timeframe (approximately one month).

Warning

This project is for educational purposes only and is not intended for production use.

Dependencies

• javafx (user interface)
• mysql-connector (connection with mysql db)
• jbcrypt (password encryption)
• dotenv-java (storing database information in a .env file)

We use Maven to manage dependencies

Starting

1. Get the project

    git clone https://github.com/jossweb/silicon-map
    cd silicon-map

2. Setup database

   You need to set up your own database for this project. You have multiple options.

• You need to set up the database using the .sql file I have placed in /sql-struct/siliconmap.sql. You just need to import this database structure. The database already contains some pre-set users.

  users	password	role
  [email protected]	123	admin
  [email protected]	123	technician
  3m)§?o?JgAS!@Ic§L3d9/T1+fx-9;gyN	;t§3jZXé'QchZzt<Zn7KM?Z7E(x9≠'6D	admin
  5Uj!=.s:uMI::&P3az@U9a1x,)z8T!7X	0mm1L/H08>+RQCB&1ffC,E,;V7LaF*+I	technician

  After that, you need to follow the structure of .env.example to create your .env file in the same path (/src/main/resources/.env).

  Note: The remote database is not required in the .env file.

  Remote Database (optional)

  For this project, we included the possibility to use an additional database. For the presentation, our second database is hosted on a VPS, which allows multiple clients to connect to the same database in the same time. I also created a small Rust API that replaces the Java simulator of the application.
  Using this API, we can send instructions to our simulator. For example, we can add a machine or set all machines to a high-temperature mode to see how the interface behaves when there are problems with your machines.

  You can find all the code of our API at https://github.com/jossweb/Silicon-map-api

  *Warning: If you use the Rust API/simulator, you need to stop the Java simulator in the .env file. *

      REMOTESIMULATOR = "OFF"

3. Start the application

       mvn javafx:run

   Requirements

   • Java 21
   • Maven 3.9
