Lab 08: Vanilla REST API
- fork this repository & create a new branch for your work
- write all of your code in a directory named
lab- + <your name> e.g. lab-susan
- push to your repository
- submit a pull request to this repository
- submit a link to your PR in canvas
- write a question and observation on canvas
- students will learn to use promise constructs to manage asynchronous code
- students will learn to create a vanilla RESTful API with in-memory persistence
.gitignore.eslintrcpackage.jsonREADME.md
- create the following directories to organize your code:
- create an HTTP server using the native NodeJS
http module
- create an object constructor that creates a simple resource with at least 3 properties
- include an
id property that is set to a unique id (hint: you'll need to use uuid)
- include two additional properties of your choice (ex: name, content, etc.)
- create a custom body parser module that uses promises to parse the JSON body of
POST and PUT requests
- create a custom url parser module that returns a promise and uses the NodeJS
url and querystring modules to parse the request url
- create a router constructor that handles requests to
GET, POST, PUT, and DELETE requests
- create a storage module that will store resources by their schema type (ex: note) and id
/api/v1/simple-resource-name
POST request
- pass data as stringified JSON in the body of a POST request to create a new resource
- this should return a 201 status code with the new record content
GET request
- pass
?id=<uuid> as a query string parameter to retrieve a specific resource (as JSON)
- this should return a 200 status code with the requested record
PUT request
- pass
?id=<uuid> as a query string parameter, with a body of data to update a specific resource (as JSON)
- this should return a 204 status code with no content in the body
DELETE request
- pass
?id=<uuid> in the query string to DELETE a specific resource
- this should return a 204 status code with no content in the body
- write tests to ensure the
/api/v1/simple-resource-name endpoint responds as described for each condition below:
GET: test 400, it should respond with 'bad request' if no id was provided in the requestGET: test 200, it should contain a response body for a request made with a valid idPOST: test 400, it should respond with 'bad request' if no request body was provided or the body was invalidPOST: test 200, it should respond with the body content for a post request with a valid bodyPUT: test 400, it should respond with 'bad request' if no request body was provided or the body was invalidPUT: test 200, it should respond with the body content for a put request with a valid bodyDELETE: test 400, it should respond with 'bad request' if no id was provided in the requestDELETE: test 200, it should contain a response body for a request made with a valid id
- A
GET request to /api/simple-resource-name with no ?id= should return an array of all of the ids for that resource
