🏥 TCAI Hospital

📋 Overview

TCAI Hospital is a hospital information system developed with Angular, specifically designed for educational purposes for nursing students and web application development. This project simulates a real hospital environment where patients, auxiliary staff, rooms, and medical records can be managed through a modern, responsive front-end interface.

It demostrates Angular concepts such as components, services, routing, forms, and HTTP communication with API's, providing a hands-on learninng experience for students and developers.

🚀 Installation Requirements

Before starting, make sure the following tools are installed:

1. Node.js

Angular requires Node.js to function.

• Download and install from: https://nodejs.org/
• Verify the installation:

  node -v
  npm -v
  

2. TypeScript

Angular is built on TypeScript, although Angular CLI already includes its compiler.

• Install globally (optional but recommended):

  npm install -g typescript
  

• Verify installation:

  tsc -v
  

3. Angular CLI

The official tool for creating, compiling, and running Angular projects.

Install:

npm install -g @angular/cli

Verify installation:

ng version

⚙️ Environment Configuration (API Base URL)

This project uses Angular environment configuration files to define the API base URL depending on the execution mode (local development or production).

This approach allows you to easily switch between different backend IPs without changing the application code.

🧪 Local Environment (Development)

File: src/environments/environment.ts

export const environment = {
  production: false,
  apiBaseUrl: 'http://localhost:8000/api'
};

Run the project locally with:

ng serve

🚀 Production Environment

File: src/environments/environment.prod.ts

export const environment = {
  production: true,
  apiBaseUrl: 'http://10.30.8.5:8000/api'
};

Build the project for production with:

ng build --configuration production

📌 Final Notes

• Always run dependency installation after cloning the project.
• You can generate new components with:

  ng generate component name
  

• If you modify the backend or API, check the routes defined in your services.
