title: How to connect to prestashop database with desktop java program
body: <p>I am a beginner with java and I can't find anything on my problem (wich is not a good sign...)</p>
  
  <p>My objective would be to :</p>
  
  <ul>
  <li>Create a prestashop website</li>
  <li>Create a desktop java program that a customer of the prestashop website will be able to download</li>
  <li>In this program, ask the user to enter his email and password that he used to order on the prestashop website</li>
  <li><strong>Check if the user exists (with his password) and look for the list of products that he bought.</strong></li>
  </ul>
  
  <p>Is it possible to do so ? If yes, how can I do it ?
  I was thinking of maybe using the Prestashop API, but I don't know how...</p>
  
  <p>Thank you very much for your help</p>
