This project is a backend prototype for a cinema ticket booking system. It was developed to practice backend development skills, including REST API design, database integration, and user authentication.

• Python 3.10+
• FastAPI – for building RESTful APIs
• SQLAlchemy – ORM for database interactions
• PostgreSQL – relational database
• Alembic – for database migrations
• Pydantic – for data validation
• Uvicorn – ASGI server for FastAPI

• User registration and authentication
• Movie listings with details
• Showtimes and seat availability
• Booking tickets with seat selection
• Admin panel for managing movies and schedules

• Python 3.10 or higher
• PostgreSQL database

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone https://github.com/turdalievargen32/Cinema.git
   cd Cinema

2. Create and activate a virtual environment:

   python -m venv venv
   source venv/bin/activate  # On Windows: venv\Scripts\activate

3. Install dependencies:

   pip install -r requirements.txt

4. Configure the database:

   • Create a PostgreSQL database.
   • Update the DATABASE_URL in the .env file with your database credentials.

5. Apply migrations:

   alembic upgrade head

6. Run the application:

   uvicorn main:app --reload

   The API will be available at http://127.0.0.1:8000.

Once the application is running, you can access the interactive API docs at:

• Swagger UI: http://127.0.0.1:8000/docs
• ReDoc: http://127.0.0.1:8000/redoc
