Express API RESTFull Scaffolding (expi)

This is just a Express.js API RESTFull generator, which is can be used as a starting point for any express application.

This project is based on the excellent idea of TrulyMittal But with some additions ;)

Installation 🏭

$ npm install -g @faisonslepoint/expi

Quick Start 🏃‍♂️

The quickest way to get started is to utilize the executable expi to generate an application as shown below:

Create (and start) the app in current folder:

$ expi .
$ npm run dev

OR, create (and start) the app (in myApp folder):

$ expi myApp
$ cd myApp
$ npm run dev

This will basically create this structure in your folder if you choose 'Simple API'

.
├── node_modules
├── .env
├── package-lock.json
├── package.json
└── server.js    

This is how easy it is to get going.

If you choose specifics resources

.
└── controllers
    └── ... .js
    └── ... .js
├── node_modules
├── routers
|   └── ... .js
|   └── ... .js
├── .env
├── package-lock.json
├── package.json
└── server.js

A picture is worth a thousand words.

• express - express framework
• dotenv - for env variables
• cors - for CORS Policy
• nodemon (dev) - monitors changes in files
