An ExpressJS server responsible for routing and CRUD operations.
This project is using Mongoose.js for MongoDB database connection and all the necessary data manipulation. Every object saved in the database is a mongoose schema with a unique set of properties.
To run the server localy you need to have MongoDB installed and running on your machine. Alternatively you can connect to any online MongoDB cluster.
I have included a dummy .env file witch you can adjust to your needs.
Run npm install command from projects root directory to install all the neccessary dependencies.
After your production build is sitting in the servers root directory you gonna have to adjust the app.js file a little bit.
First remove api form every app.use call in the file.
app.use('/api', authRoutes) -> app.use('/', authRoutes)
then append this snnipet after the app.use calls
app.get('/*', (req, res) => {
res.sendFile(path.join(__dirname, 'build', 'index.html'));
});
Now you can run the app from any previously configured VPS preferably use Nginx but Apache will do as well if you know your way around it.
Run the app using tmux or 2pm.js to run the proccess in the background.
