- Convert the route based configuration into a controller-router based one (it's a mess right now)
- Convert the controller-router configuration into a service-controller-router based one (it could be even better)
- Find a way to shorten API URLs, standard MongoDB IDs are very long and look ugly
- Make it so that endpoints cannot be reached unless the userModel is logged in and possesses a valid JSON Web Token, JWT should be available for 30 days
- Create additional routes to make the API more functional
- Test the API using mocks with Jest with the above specifications
- Hook it up to the frontend
- Clone the project using
git clone https://github.com/Metallifax/bjjt-blog-backend - Make sure a working MongoDB database is running on your system
- Install Node packages with either
npm installoryarn - Start the local server using
npm run dev - Try out the routes in either Postman or other API testing software
