Simple Standard NodeJs setup for Restful Api design
make sure that mongo is runing on your machine on port 27017 or also you can pull docker image of mongodb and use that. for starting the project just run npm install first and npm run serve to spin up that on port :3010.
this is just a simple repo for you to see how nodejs basically sets up for a standard Restful API. in feature brances Jest will be added for testing. for now there are just couple of middlewares to handle a bit of error handeling and more importantly cors issues and response to OPTIONS method. also there is a resource called author that has controller as much as route and model.
you are using ESM mosules in the entire project, which enabels you to use import/export, async/await and many more features of ES6 in this project, so , in order to transpile that to regular js you need to run npm run build; this command would create a built folder in root directory and actually you can create a docker file to spins up a node js with an nginx and runs the content of that folder and there we go, you got your backend system!
also notice that in mongoConnect.js remember to change the connection string when you build and want to deploy, any changes in the docker-compose.yml file in order to improve the usablity would be appritiated to send some pull request to me!
