Backend challenge #4

Welcome to the four challenge of this series of backend development. In today challenge we will start with more complex projects.

Today challenge main focus is to create the api for an already created website. The api needs the next requirements.

• Should be listen on the url localhost:3131/api
• Store the data (database, files, etc the choice is yours)
• You need to create the next endpoint receipts with the next methods
  • GET
  • POST
  • PUT the url is receipts/:id instead of only receipts
  • DELETE the url is the same as in put
• The data returned by the GET should be as follow:

[
    {id: 1, name: 'TEST 1'},
    {id: 2, name: 'TEST 2'}
]

• In the post and put you should recieve the next json, and you should return the resource to the client

{
    "name": "TEST"
}
// Response
{ id: 1, name: "TEST" }

How to start the challenge

You can clone an start the frontend by your own, but the easiest way is to pull the docker image of the project and start a container.

# Pull the docker image
docker pull caresle/nature-food-receipt:v1.0

# Start a container
docker run -d -p 3000:3000 caresle/nature-food-receipt:v1.0

Now you should be able to go to the frontend in the localhost:3000 port.

You can check the code of the project here
