AI Travel Agent with MariaDB, FastAPI, Next.js, & MindsDB

Transform a dataset into a predictive AI model that recommends the best flight based on the route selected.

Topics covered:

  • Using AWS EC2, deploy Docker-based MariaDB Instance
  • Aggregate Kaggle-based dataset via Python Pandas
  • Load a dataset via Pandas and Jupyter to MariaDB
  • Connect MariaDB to MindsDB
  • Train two forecasting models within MindsDB
    • housing prices
    • flight prices
  • Use SQL to run predictions in MindsDB Console
  • Connect MariaDB with FastAPI, SQLAlchemy, and Pydantic
  • Connect FastAPI to NextJS
  • Build forms and routes with Next.js and App Router
  • Craft UI elements with TailwindCSS and Flowbite
  • Build Reusable Airport-select React/Next Client Component
  • Connect FastAPI to MindsDB for SQL via Rest API
  • Generate Synthetic Data with Gretel.ai

Lesson Reference

Each Git branch corresponds to the start and end of a section when it makes sense to do so. For example, section 33 starts at Branch 33-start and ends with branch 33-end. These branches exist for your reference where main branch has the latest code.

Install Docker & Docker Compose

Enter you EC2 Instance

ssh -i your-private-key.pem ubuntu@<your-ec2-instance-public-ip>

Escalate to Root

sudo su

Install Docker

curl -fsSL https://get.docker.com | sudo sh

Create secrets with Python

python3 -c "import secrets;print(secrets.token_urlsafe(32))"

Five Steps to Launch a Docker-based MariaDB Instance on AWS EC2

Step 1 Create an AWS EC2 Instance.

Ensure the security groups are setup correctly to allow port 3306 access for MariaDB.

Step 2: Install Docker Compose

SSH into EC2 Instance with your private key and the ubuntu user:

ssh -i your-private-key.pem ubuntu@<your-ec2-instance-public-ip>

Once complete, install Docker Compose as written above.

Step 3: Setup MariaDB Root User Password

On the EC2 instance create the .env add the following line with your own password:

MARIADB_ROOT_PASSWORD=your-secret-password

Such as:

echo "MARIADB_ROOT_PASSWORD=$(python3 -c 'import secrets;print(secrets.token_urlsafe(32))')" >> .env

Step 4: Run MariaDB with Docker Compose

Copy the contents of config/compose.yaml file to your EC2 instance to run MariaDB with:

curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/codingforentrepreneurs/ai-travel-agent/main/config/compose.yaml -o compose.yaml
docker compose -f compose.yaml up -d

Step 5: Connection String to MariaDB

Make note of the EC2 instance public IP address so you can re-use it anywhere with the following database connection string:

mariadb://root:your-secret-password@<your-ec2-instance-public-ip>:3306
