Financial Transaction Manager

A web application for managing financial transactions across multiple bank accounts.

Project Overview

  • Purpose: Provides a user interface for CRUD operations on financial transactions.
  • Technology: Built with Astro, TypeScript, and plain CSS, utilizing Astro API routes.
  • Layout: Features a two-column dashboard design with a sidebar for account selection/actions and a main area for transaction display.
  • Data Management: Uses Prisma ORM for database operations (src/data/db.service.ts), accessed via API endpoints (src/pages/api/).
  • Key Features (Implemented & Planned): Account switching, transaction listing, adding, editing, and deleting transactions.

Logs

This app is currently deployed using Cloudflare Pages. The logs can be viewed with the npx wrangler pages deployment tail --project-name finance command.

Development Environment Setup

For detailed setup instructions, including environment configuration and troubleshooting, see ENVIRONMENT_SETUP.md.

Quick Start

  1. Prerequisites

    • Node.js (version 18 or higher)
    • PostgreSQL (local installation or Docker)
    • Git
  2. Setup Steps

    • Clone this repository
    • Run npm install
    • Copy .env.example to .env and configure your database connection
    • Run npx prisma migrate dev to set up the database

Database Setup

The project uses Prisma ORM for database operations. To set up the database:

  1. Create a .env file in the project root with your database connection string:

    DATABASE_URL="postgresql://username:password@localhost:5432/finance"
    
  2. Run database migrations:

    npx prisma migrate dev
    
  3. Seed the database with initial data (optional):

    npx prisma db seed
    
  4. To view and manage your data visually:

    npx prisma studio
    

Path Aliases

This project uses TypeScript path aliases for cleaner imports. Instead of using relative paths like ../../../../data/db.service, use the following aliases:

  • @/* - Maps to src/*
  • @components/* - Maps to src/components/*
  • @layouts/* - Maps to src/layouts/*
  • @data/* - Maps to src/data/*
  • @pages/* - Maps to src/pages/*
  • @styles/* - Maps to src/styles/*
  • @stores/* - Maps to src/stores/*
  • @utils/* - Maps to src/utils.ts
  • @types - Maps to src/types.ts

Example:

// ✅ DO use path aliases like this
import { transactionService } from '@data/db.service';
import type { Transaction } from '@types';

// ❌ DON'T use relative imports like this
import { transactionService } from '../../../../data/db.service';

Enforcing Path Aliases with Biome.js

This project uses Biome.js for code formatting and linting. Biome enforces the use of path aliases instead of relative imports. To run Biome checks:

npm run check

To automatically fix issues:

npm run check -- --apply

The Biome configuration (in biome.json) includes rules for import sorting and path alias enforcement. To customize the rules, edit the biome.json file.
