No social security, couldn't get a license, but I still didn't complain

Express

But First

Blast To The Past

How Does The Internet Work

"It is a set of rules that allow programs to talk to each other. The developer creates the API on the server and allows the client to talk to it."

CRUD

Create (post) - Make something

Read (get) - Get Something

Update (put) - Change something

Delete (delete) - Remove something

Let's Build An App with Express

Express

Fast, unopinionated, minimalist web framework for Node.js

 

With a myriad of HTTP utility methods and middleware at your disposal, creating a robust API is quick and easy.

TONIGHT WE BUILD

Key Steps

mkdir api-project
cd api-project
npm init 
npm install express --save

Setting Up The Project

app.get('/', (req, res) => {
  res.sendFile(__dirname + '/index.html')
})

Serving Up HTML

app.get('/api/savage', (request, response) => {
  response.json(object)
})

Serving Up JSON

heroku login -i
heroku create simple-rap-api
echo "web: node server.js" > Procfile
git add . 
git commit -m "changes"
git push heroku main

Push To Heroku
