Railway-Managment-System

Overview

Railway reservation system which handles concurrent requests for booking tickets in postgress. It uses explicit locking to handle parallel requests.

Setup before running

• Make a config.properties file in the Java/ directory and store the name of the database,user and its password as following

  database=XXXXXX
  user=XXXXXX
  password=XXXXXX

• Make a database in postgresql then run setup.sql (change the paths before running)

  \i setup.sql

• Download JDBC driver and keep it in Java/ directory
• Make two directories Input/ and Output/ and keep in input files in Input/ folder
• Make a Trainschedule.txt file in Java/ folder

How to Run ⚡

• First we need to add all the train by running ReleaseTrain and Train schedule resides in Trainschedule or specify the path of the file

  javac ReleaseTrain.java && java ReleaseTrain

• Then, run Service Module which will keep listening for connections from the client and book tickets using multithreading.

  javac ServiceModule.java && java ServiceModule

• Now, open a new terminal and run the Client which will send parallel requests to Service Module. This will read the input files present in Input/ directory and give the output in Output/ directory

  javac *.java && java client

  Below are all the commands used above

  & is added so that the Service module runs in background (no need to open a new terminal ✌️)

  javac ReleaseTrain.java && java ReleaseTrain
  javac ServiceModule.java && java ServiceModule &
  javac *.java && java client
