maple-register-api

Installation

1. download nodejs https://nodejs.org/en

2. After installing nodejs, run these on the root folder of the project:

npm i

3. edit the database settings in config/config.json

4. Set your reCAPTCHA token in config/config.json (or disable it entirely by removing it from controllers/authController.js)

Starting

npm run start

The api server should now run on port 3000

Testing

Testing without a site can be difficult with the reCAPTCHA validation present.

A curl request without token (Edit controllers/authController.js to disable the token):

curl -X POST http://localhost:3000/api/auth/register -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{"name":"admin", "password":"password"}'
