baucis-decorators-example v1.0.1

baucis-decorators-example

Demonstrates how easy it is to decorate a baucis REST API with custom functionality.

What this example does

• Exposes a REST API at /api and /dev/api with 3 main endpoints, resources, users, and logs
• The users and logs endpoints inherit properties and decorators from resources
• Uses decorators to automatically add the following functionality:
  • reserved properties
  • automatically update properties
  • init default properties using the Express request object
  • set properties only once
  • adds endpoints for certain properties under development via /dev/api
  • authorization (access control) depending on the values of certain properties
  • properties for voting
• Exposes details of the REST API at /api-docs using Swagger
• Logs the Express app errors
• Sets a Stripe token depending on the Node process environment
• Redirects to https://www. if in the production environment
• Initializes a mongoose database under mongodb://localhost/baucis-decorators-example
• Uses mongoose as the session store
• Allows file uploads
• Enables gzip compression after 256 bytes

Try it out

git clone git@github.com:loggur/baucis-decorators-example.git
cd baucis-decorators-example
node server/app.js
open localhost:8080/api-docs

How it works

It's probably easiest to just check out the source code in the following order:

1. server/app.js
2. routes/api.js
3. props
