Configs
The first thing to do is get your configs set up. The database connection is all you really need.
{"port": 3030, // api port"database": {"dialect": "mysql","user": "", // db username"password": "", // db password"host": "", // db host"database": "" // name of the database},"default_from_email": "[email protected]", // for emails!"sendgrid": "", // to send emails!"auth": {"allowed_origins": [], // an array of allowed origins like ["http://localhost:3000"]"issuer": "noco", // anything will do here"audience": "noco", // anything will do here for,"expiresIn": 10000 // number of seconds the JWT is good for.},"s3": {"key": "","secret": "","bucket": "","region": "","s3ForcePathStyle": true,"signatureVersion": "v4","endpoint": ""}}
If you need a simple local mysql database you can use docker to quickly set one up.
docker run -ti -p 3306:3306 \-v $(PWD)/sql:/var/lib/mysql \-e MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD=password \mysql:5.7
You'll then need to use something like Sequel Pro to create a database to connect to. Let's say you create a data
Then your local configs could look something like this.
"database": {"dialect": "mysql","user": "root","password": "password","host": "0.0.0.0","database": "test"},
If you want to use another one of Sequelize's databases, you'll need to install the adapter yourself. Take a look at their docs https://sequelize.org/master/manual/getting-started.html
Next up it's time to install the node modules
npm i
After your node modules are installed, you can run npm run docsto generate your own API documentation.
You're then ready to run your API with npm run dev
# Successful output of your api once you've set your configsAPI on port 3030!mysql connectedbootstrapped api key!
If you head over to http://localhost:3030 you should see your documentation. It will look something like this:
