rest-api-constructor v1.0.6

REST-API-constructor

a helpful constructor for REST APIs using Express, CORS, body-parser, and Mongoose.

I did not create Express, CORS, body-parser, or Mongoose. Full credit to their respective developers.

to install the constructor use :

npm install --save rest-api-constructor

example usage :

const API = require('REST-API-constructor');
let test = new API(/* see route name */, /* see schema */, /* see port */, /* see db */);

see 'example-app.js'

route name :

the API constructor will create 5 routes with the route name. :

app.get('/test', ...)
app.get('/test/:id', ...)
app.post('/test', ...)
app.put('/test/:id', ...)
app.delete('/test/:id', ...)

schema :

this is just a basic schema, the constructor will convert it into a mongoose schema. :

let schema = {
	fname: String,
	lname: String
}

port:

this will run the api on the port specified

db:

you must have MongoDB running on port 27017. you will then put the name of the db you wish to use.
