Description

With some provided starter code and a focus just on the back-end data, this app provides the code to manage the catalogue of an e-commerce store. Products, product categories, and tags can be created, read, updated, or deleted using routes.

Installation

To install this application, enter the following command into your terminal:

npm i

Additionally, you'll need to enter your mysql username and password into the '.env.EXAMPLE' file in the root folder and rename the file to '.env'.

To initialize the creation of the database, run the following script:

npm run resetdb

You'll be prompted to enter your mysql2 password. Once entered, it'll create the schema.

To use the provided seed data, run the following command in your terminal, or feel free to seed with your own test data:

npm run seed

Technologies

• JavaScript
• Node.js
• MySQL2
• Sequelize
• Dotenv

Usage

To start the app, enter the following command in your terminal:

npm start

As the code stands, there's no front-end integration so all routes must be accessed through a URL or route-testing client (such as Insomnia). Below are a couple of screenshots and a screencaptured video of each route being tested in Insomnia.
