smera
Simple MongoDB and Express REST API
smera creates a simple REST API with mongoose as default repository, but it accepts add another middlewares and change the controller, the repository or the return messages.
Installation
Run the command:
npm install smera
Example:
var express = require('express');
var mongoose = require('mongoose');
var bodyParser = require('body-parser');
var Model = require('./model');
var smera = require('smera')();
mongoose.connect('mongodb://localhost:27017/myDb');
var app = express();
app.use(bodyParser.urlencoded({ extended: false }));
app.use(bodyParser.json());
app.use(smera('models', Model));
var server = app.listen(3000, function () {
});
Now you can call:
- GET /models
- GET /models/myResourceId
- POST /models
- PUT /models/myResourceId
- DELETE /models/myResourceId
Options
You can change default smera behavior. Example:
var options = {
messages: myMessages,
repository: myRepository,
controller: myController
};
var smera = require('smera')(options);
Middlewares
You can use another middlewares before call controller. Example:
var smera = require('smera')();
var anotherMiddlewares = {
all: authentication,
get: permission,
getById: [permission, blablabla]
/*
create: ...,
update: ...
delete: ...
*/
};
app.use(smera('models', Model, anotherMiddlewares));
