This project is created for the Udacity Full Stack Javascript Developer Nanodegree Program.

The project consists of the Node.js project serving the API to handle shopping app.

To use the API, first create Postgres database.

Database can be created with following statements:

CREATE USER <DATABASE_USER> WITH PASSWORD <DATABASE_PASSWORD>;
CREATE DATABASE <DATABASE_NAME>;
\c <DATABASE_NAME>
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON DATABASE <DATABASE_NAME> TO <DATABASE_USER>;

Migrate database to newest version

db-migrate up

For the backend app to work, following ENV variables have to be filled.

ENV=dev
DATABASE_HOST
DATABASE_NAME
DATABASE_USER
DATABASE_PASSWORD
SALT_ROUNDS

To test the backend app see ##Testing at the end of the file

If you want to fill the database with test data, you can run sql commands in INIT_DATA.sql file.

Password of "user1 is "u1_password"; Password of "user2 is "u2_password";

To use an API, frist you have to build and start the aplication:

npm run build

npm run start:dev //if you want to test typescript code

or

npm run start:prod //if you want to test built code

If you want to make your life easier you can use:

npm run build-and-run-dev

or

npm run build-and-run-prod

The backend runs locally (127.0.0.1) on port 3001. To use an API just enter the URL in the browser or create request in the Postman.

http://localhost:3001/products/
http://localhost:3001/users/
http://localhost:3001/orders/

etc.
