Pharmacy Management System - SLIIT Project NodeJs , AngularJs , MongoDB

This is a pharmacy management system for a hospital developed for the 3rd year first semester final project by 4 members. The system will manage all the pharmaceutical operations to provide comprehensive pharmacy services. Basic features of this system would be managing the drug inventory, patient medical profiles, drug dispensing and prescription management. The main users of this system would be the chief pharmacist, assistant pharmacists, and doctors. They have to login to the system in order to use the services available.

The main benefits of this system are reducing manual data entry, reducing human errors, saves time, and increased efficiency. The system is able to generate customized reports on each of the services when required.

Technologies Used 

• AngularJS for the front end
• Github 
• MongoDB ,Mongoose Library,  ExpressJS and NodeJS for the backend.
• JetBrains WebStorm IDE

Backend is an API running JSON based web services. The front-end application communicates with the back end only using these web services. 

My part was to monitor the drug stock level and decide whether to re-order from drug suppliers via email after the approval of chief pharmacist if drug levels are low and record supplier details.

ng-model in AngularJS

Models in Angular.JS are represented by the "ng-model" directive. The primary purpose of this directive is to bind the "view" to the "model".

The ng-model attribute is used for,

• Binding controls such as input, text area and select in the view into the model. 
• Provide a validation behavior - for example a validation can be added to a textbox that only numeric characters can be entered into the textbox. 
• The ng-model attribute maintains the state of the control (By state, we mean that the control and the data is bound to be always kept in sync. If the value of our data changes , it will automatically change the value in the control and vice versa)
