KisaanSetu

KisaanSetu is an online platform that connects farmers directly with consumers, enabling them to buy fresh produce without intermediaries. The platform allows farmers to list their products, set prices, and manage orders, while consumers can browse, order, and learn about sustainable agriculture practices.

Note: We couldn't deploy our model for free on any platform, in doing so it was just running out of memory of the free tier of any hosting platform. So the image classification part will not be working in the the given production link, so you won't be able to add any product to inventory. You might just run the classifier server locally that can resolve the issue, since the website is making request to the local server only for classification.

Features

• Easy Product Listing: Farmers can easily add their products with detailed descriptions and prices.
• Inventory Management: Farmers can seemlessly add, edit and delete their products.
• Order Management: Farmers can manage their incoming orders and update product availability.
• Consumer Transparency: Consumers can learn about the origin, quality, and freshness of the products.
• Educational Content: Consumers can explore educational resources on sustainable agriculture and local farming.
• Product Reviews: Consumers can rate products, providing valuable feedback to the farmers.

Tech Stack

• Frontend: React, Redux, Tailwind CSS
• Backend: Node.js, Express.js, MongoDB

Prerequisites

Before you begin, ensure you have met the following requirements:

• You have Node.js and npm (Node Package Manager) installed on your machine. You can check if they're installed by running:

  node -v
  npm -v
  

If not installed, follow the Node.js installation guide.

• You have MongoDBCompass installed and running on your local machine. For setup, refer to the official MongoDB installation guide.

Make sure your MongoDB server is running on the default port (mongodb://localhost:27017) or adjust the connection settings in the project configuration if using a custom setup.

3. Navigate to client directory:

   cd client

4. Install dependencies:

   npm install

5. 3. Configure environment variables
      Create a .env file in the root of server directory and set up the following variables:

   # Aws credentials
   BUCKET_REGION=
   BUCKET_NAME=
   ACCESS_KEY=
   SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=
   
   # MongoDb uri
   MONGODB_URI=

   Create a .env file in the root of client directory and set up the following variables:

   VITE_BACKEND_URL=http://localhost:3000

6. Navigate to classifier directory

   cd classifier

7. Create a Virtual Environment Run the following command:

   python -m venv venv

   This will create a virtual environment named venv.

8. Activate the Virtual Environment

   On Windows (Command Prompt)

   venv\Scripts\activate

   If using PowerShell, run:

   venv\Scripts\Activate.ps1

   On macOS/Linux (Terminal)

   source venv/bin/activate

9. Install Dependencies Once the virtual environment is activated, install required dependencies:

   pip install -r requirements.txt

10. Start the classifier model server

    python app.py

11. Start the client(frontend) server:

    npm run dev

12. Navigate to server(backend) directory:

    cd client

13. Install dependencies:

    npm install

14. Start the backend server:

    npm run dev
