This repository contains a simple Nodejs API that performs CRUD (Create, Read, Update, Delete) operations on a MongoDB database. The API is well commented and follows a scalable folder structure that separates the routes, controllers, models and utilities. 😊
To run the API, you need to have Node.js and MongoDB(or Mongodb Atlas) installed on your machine. Then, clone this repository and run npm install to install the dependencies. Next, create a .env file in the root folder and add your MongoDB connection string as MONGO_URI and PORT. Finally, run npm start to start the server.
The API has four endpoints:
GET /products/: Returns a list of all products in the database. 📃POST /products/create: Creates a new product with the given name and quantity in the body of the request. Returns the created product. 🆕PUT /products/:id/update_quantity/?number=10: Updates the product with the given id with the name and quantity in the body of the request. Returns the updated product. 🔄DELETE /products/:id: Deletes the product with the given id from the database. Returns a message confirming the deletion. ❌
You can use tools like Postman or curl to test the API. 😎
