Factory Employee Management System

This project implements a Factory Employee Management System using Node.js, Express, MongoDB, and HTML with native JavaScript on the client side.

Features

• Technology Stack: Node.js, Express server, MongoDB database, and HTML with native JS.
• Architecture: Designed with separation of concerns into Data and Business layers.
• Functionality: Supports CRUD operations for different models.

Restoring MongoDB Dump Using mongorestore

To restore the MongoDB database used by this project, follow these steps:

1. Download and Install MongoDB Database Tools:

   • If MongoDB Database Tools is not installed, download and install it from the MongoDB Download Center based on your operating system.

2. Open a Terminal or Command Prompt in MongoDB Data Tools bin directory:

   • Open a new terminal or command prompt window.
   • Change directory to the MongoDB bin directory where mongorestore is located.

3. Run mongorestore Command:

   • Use the mongorestore command to restore the dump file into your MongoDB:

     mongorestore --archive=node_project.dump --db node_project

     • Replace node_project.dump with the full path to your dump file if you're not in the same directory.
     • --db node_project: Specifies the name of the database where the data will be restored. Adjust this if your database has a different name.
