1. Start All Services:

   # API (Docker)
   docker-compose up -d
      
   # Admin Portal
   cd src\portals\FlowerShop.AdminPortal
   dotnet run --launch-profile http
      
   # Vendor Portal  
   cd src\portals\FlowerShop.VendorPortal

   dotnet run --launch-profile http
   

2. Upload Bouquet Images (Vendor Portal):

   • Click eye icon on ESP32-234567
   • Upload a beautiful bouquet photo
   • Repeat for ESP32-ASDFGH
3. Verify Bouquets Created:
   • Each upload auto-creates a bouquet
   • Rose Garden now has 2 bouquets (1 per vase)
4. View on Customer Portal:
   • Go to http://localhost:5283
   • See 2 round bouquet image markers on map
   • Click each to see full image and details

Important Notes

Image Persistence

• Images stored in-memory (ConcurrentDictionary)
• Cleared on API restart
• Production: Use Azure Blob Storage or AWS S3

Vendor Location

• All vases inherit vendor’s location
• Vases don’t have separate addresses
• Makes sense: vase is physically at shop/home

Authentication

• Mock vase service endpoints are AllowAnonymous
• Production: Implement device-specific tokens
• Vendors can upload without platform admin role

Cache Busting

• Image URLs include ?t={timestamp}
• Ensures fresh loads after upload
• Prevents stale 404 cached responses

Current State: Rose Garden

Vendor: Rose Garden (Traditional Shop) Location: Geodetów 43, Józefosław (52.092345, 21.045100) Vases: 2

• ESP32-234567
• ESP32-ASDFGH

Expected Behavior:

• Upload image to each vase
• 2 bouquets auto-created
• Customer sees 2 round image markers on map at Rose Garden’s location
• Clicking markers shows uploaded bouquet photos

Success Criteria ✅

• ✅ Rose Garden has 2 vases
• ✅ Each vase can have a bouquet image
• ✅ Images transmitted to Customer Portal
• ✅ Customer sees bouquets on map with photos
• ✅ Vendor Portal shows current bouquet thumbnails
• ✅ All location data correct
