LogiTrack - Logistics Tracking System

A modern web application for tracking shipments and managing logistics operations. Built with HTML, CSS, JavaScript (frontend) and Node.js + Express + MongoDB (backend).

Features

• User registration and authentication with email verification
• Real-time shipment tracking
• Search shipments by Tracking ID or Order ID
• User profile management (change username and password)
• Responsive design for all devices
• Secure session management
• Clean and modern UI

Requirements

• Node.js (v16+ recommended)
• MongoDB (local or Atlas)
• Web server (optional for static hosting)
• Modern web browser

Quick Start (local)

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone https://github.com/LOVENISH87/LogiTrack.git
   cd LogiTrack/backend

2. Create a .env in backend/ (or set env vars) with:

   MONGO_URI=<your_mongodb_connection_string>
   PORT=5000
   JWT_SECRET=<your_jwt_secret>
   

3. Install and run backend:

   npm install
   npm start

4. Open the frontend in a browser (static files are served from the backend at http://localhost:5000 if you use express.static), or open frontend/index.html directly while the API runs at http://localhost:5000/api

Docker (backend)

Build and run using the included Dockerfile:

docker build -t logitrack-backend ./backend
docker run -e MONGO_URI=<your_mongo_uri> -e JWT_SECRET=<secret> -p 5000:5000 logitrack-backend

Seeding data

From the backend directory you can run seed scripts:

node seedProducts.js
node seedAgents.js

Notes

• The app uses MongoDB via Mongoose models in backend/models/.
• If you see any references to MySQL or PHP in this repo, they are outdated and will be removed in a future cleanup.
