The Process

I started by setting up an express server to handle incoming requests and routes. Then I set up a GitHub webhook for this repo, then enter my server payload url(ngrok url) and the events i will like my app to track. After which I set up a mongoose database to store the track activities.

• Setting up the Environment Variables (.env file)

- PORT='your-port-number'
- MONGO_URI='your-mongoose-uri'

• APIEndpoint

- POST /api/v1/activities: An endpoint that receive information from the GitHub webhook to get the activities of a specific user.
- GET /api/v1/activities: An endpoint that lists all the activities recorded in the database.
- GET /api/v1/activities/:id: An endpoint that lists the activities of a specific user by id.
- GET /api/v1/activities/username/:username: An endpoint that lists the activities of a specific user by username.
