express-mysql-sequelize v1.1.0

express-mysql-sequelize

A Node.js API using ExpressJS, MySQL and Sequelize.

Requirements

• Node.js, with npm
• ExpressJS
• MySQL
• Sequelize

Installation

Configure database name, username and password in app/config/db.config.js

$ git clone https://github.com/9r3i/express-mysql-sequelize.git
$ cd express-mysql-sequelize
$ npm install
$ npm start

Server will run on port 3000, or configure server port in server.js

Access the server in http://localhost:3000, and the API will use route path /api/winners

So, base API URL is http://localhost:3000/api/winners

Preparation

First thing first, read file mysql-preparation.txt for preparing mysql databse.

Testing preparation for client, using curl cli or using javascript fetch. First, install curl for cli in terminal (debian/ubuntu/mint):

$ sudo apt install curl

And for javascript, we will prepare a fetching function with profer headers.

/* fetch data */
async function fetchData(url = '', data={}, method='GET'){
  const baseURL = 'http://localhost:3000/api/winners';
  /* default options are marked with */
  const response = await fetch(baseURL+url, {
    /* GET, POST, PUT, DELETE */
    method: method,
    /* no-cors, *cors, same-origin */
    mode: 'cors',
    /* *default, no-cache, reload, force-cache, only-if-cached */
    cache: 'no-cache',
    /* include, *same-origin, omit */
    credentials: 'same-origin',
    /* headers, we will use json */
    headers: {
      'Content-Type': 'application/json'
      // 'Content-Type': 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded',
    },
    /* manual, *follow, error */
    redirect: 'follow',
    /* no-referrer, *no-referrer-when-downgrade, origin, origin-when-cross-origin, same-origin, strict-origin, strict-origin-when-cross-origin, unsafe-url */
    referrerPolicy: 'no-referrer',
    /* stringify data (for Content-Type: application/json only) */
    body: method == 'GET' || method == 'DELETE' ? null : JSON.stringify(data)
  });
  /* return the parsed json (object) */
  return response.json();
}

Or use the cloned application in the same host for testing only, access http://localhost:3000/client/index.html

Also using Postman is a lot easier to see the response, and I recommend this app to do some API tests.

Read a single data by an id

• request path: /:id
• request method: GET
• request data: NO

Use path /:id, where id is an integer of primary key. With request method GET.

Example fetch of row id 39:

$ curl 'http://localhost:3000/api/winners/39'

or using javascript fetch

const response = await fetchData('/39');

Read multiple data

• request path: /all
• request method: POST
• request data: YES

Notice: This POST fetch only to serve the client test app.

Use path /all with method POST and some data request variable:

• startRow, integer of start of row number to be red
• endRow, integer of last row number to be red
• filterModel, object of filter model for specific porpose
• sortModel, array of sorting and ordering by column name

Example fetch multiple data with pagination,

• start with row 100
• end with row 200

const response = await fetchData('/all',{
  startRow: 100,
  endRow: 200,
  filterModel: {},
  sortModel: []
},'POST');

We'll add sortModel arguments, it will be like:

• sort, string of sort method between ASC and DESC
• colId, string of column name, like: id

Example:

const response = await fetchData('/all',{
  startRow: 100,
  endRow: 200,
  filterModel: {},
  sortModel: [
    {
      sort: "DESC",
      colId: "id"
    }
  ]
},'POST');

Now we try filterModel, to filter a column:

• filterType, string of type of filter, number or date
• type, string of type of wherance: - equals, notEqual, inRange (between) - lessThan, lessThanOrEqual - greaterThan, greaterThanOrEqual
• filter, mixed of first filter
• filterTo, mixed of second filter

Example:

const response = await fetchData('/all',{
  startRow: 100,
  endRow: 200,
  filterModel: {
    "year": {
      "filterType": "number",
      "type": "inRange",
      "filter": 2002,
      "filterTo": 2004
    }
  },
  sortModel: []
},'POST');

And also filter with two conditions,

• filterType, string of type of filter, value: number or date
• operator, string of query operator, the value between OR and AND
• condition1, object of first condition that explained in latest example.
• condition2, object of second condition that explained in latest example.

Take a look of this example:

const response = await fetchData('/all',{
  startRow: 100,
  endRow: 200,
  filterModel: {
    "year": {
      "filterType": "number",
      "operator": "AND",
      "condition1": {
        "filterType": "number",
        "type": "inRange",
        "filter": 2002,
        "filterTo": 2004
      },
      "condition2": {
        "filterType": "number",
        "type": "equals",
        "filter": 2010
      }
    }
  },
  sortModel: []
},'POST');

Create/Insert data

• request path: /
• request method: POST
• request data: YES

Create or Insert data use path / with method POST and also with data request.

Example:

const response = await fetchData('/',{
  athlete: "Ronaldo Esteban",
  age: 30,
  year: 2013,
  gold: 1,
  silver: 0,
  bronze: 0,
  total: 1,
  sportId: 24,
  countryId: 103,
  country_group: "U",
  date:'2013-08-06'
},'POST');

Update a single data

• request path: /:id
• request method: PUT
• request data: YES

Update request is using path /:id with PUT method, and also with data request.

Example:

const response = await fetchData('/8002',{
  athlete: "Ronaldo Esteban",
  age: 31,
  year: 2013,
  gold: 1,
  silver: 2,
  bronze: 0,
  total: 3,
  sportId: 24,
  countryId: 103,
  country_group: "U",
  date:'2013-08-06'
},'PUT');

Delete a single data

• request path: /:id
• request method: DELETE
• request data: NO

Delete a single row by id, using path /:id with DELETE method.

Example:

const response = await fetchData('/8003',{},'DELETE');

Delete all data

• request path: /
• request method: DELETE
• request data: NO

This the worst code i wrote, wipe all the way table but not truncate.

Example:

const response = await fetchData('/',{},'DELETE');

Closing

I wish this repository will be very helpful for all people who needs it.
