As a social media startup, I want an API for my social network that uses a NoSQL database so that my website can handle large amounts of unstructured data.
-
When I enter the command to invoke the application
Then my server is started and the Mongoose models are synced to the MongoDB database
-
When I open API GET routes in Insomnia for users and thoughts
Then the data for each of these routes is displayed in formatted JSON
-
When I test API POST, PUT, and DELETE routes in Insomnia
Then I am able to successfully create, update, and delete users and thoughts in my database
-
When I test API POST and DELETE routes in Insomnia
Then I am able to successfully create and delete reactions to thoughts and add and remove friends to a user's friend list
Clone this repository from GitHub
Open the application in your local IDE. Use the command npm i in your CLI, then npm start. The application will now be running.
Open Insomnia for testing.
To access user data: use the URL http://localhost:3001/api/users
To add/remove friend data: use the URL http://localhost:3001/api/users/(user _id)/friends
To access thought data: use the URL http://localhost:3001/api/thoughts
To add/remove thought data: use the URL http://localhost:3001/api/thoughts/(thought _id)/reactions
For POST, PUT, and DELETE routes, you will need to create a JSON body to send to the server. Reference the walkthrough video below for inspiration.
