# Reactive Dashboard (Multi database setup)
The application consists with multiple databases, composite primary keys and
reactive UI interface that would be update when a database change occur in relation
to page that user currently viewing.
You can checkout the [Live Demo from here](https://mighty-gorge-08348.herokuapp.com/).
## Ruby/Rails version
- Ruby 3.0.1
- Rails 7.0.3
## Configuration
Change the `database.yml` according to your local configurations. To work with multiple
databases keep the those configuration intact.
## Database creation
Run the following commands to create and setup the database.
bundle exec rake db:create
bundle exec rake db:setup`
## Start the server
Start the local server by the following command.
bin/dev
This will start the server in the port 3000 and you can visit the site with: http://localhost:3000/
## Questions
> 1. If you had more time, what would you change or focus more time on ?
>
>> Would have more focused on the UIs more that refine the interfaces and do more testing
>> functionality of UI updates on database changes more. Also would have able to add more
>> validations to form and other user inputs. Would have research more into websocket capabilities
>> that can be integrated to rails. I have developed this application using "Postgresql" because
>> it is already setup in my machine. With more time I could have tried with "Mysql" database.
>
> 2. Which part of the solution consumed the most amount of time?
>
>> Most time consuming part was when setting up "Actioncable" with multiple javascript libraries and
>> Subsequently implementing the websocket functions throughout the application because it was somewhat
>> unorthodox.
>
> 3. What would you suggest to the clinicians that they may not have thought of in regard to their request ?
>
>> Using "name", "birthdate" as a unique composite primary key was a not a good approach and the clinicians
>> should have thought about different version of name can exists such a middle name can be shortened or there
>> could be multiple spellings of a name that pronounce the same. If possible and having a single database would be
>> more efficient too.
