Backend for 'Mesto' (Place') interactive web page student project for Yandex.Practicum
This project creates REST API for the Mesto React project connected to the MongoDB database. When the service is started it connects to the mongo server locally using the url 'mongodb://localhost:27017/mestodb'. The application sets up the user and card scheme. Some fields of the scheme are validated using regular expressions and Celebrate & Joi validation.
- GET /cards - returns all cards from the database;
- POST /cards - creates a card with title and image link given in the body of the query;
- DELETE /cards/:cardId - deletes a card with specified _id;
- PUT /cards/:cardId - sets a like on the card with a given _id;
- GET /users - returns all users from the database;
- GET /users/me - returns the current active user;
- GET /users/:userId - returns a user with a specified _id;
- POST /users - creates a user with name, about and avatar specified in the body of the query;
- PATCH users/me - updates user information;
- PATCH user/me/avatar - updates userpic link;

The queries that reach the server are getting validated via celebrate middleware and joi validation library. Validation and server errors are handled and returned API is protected with authorization middleware.
