Bloglist API

About

This is an API where users can store their favourite blogs. Other users can visit them and upvote or downvote, stackoverflow style.

Usage

After cloning this repository and navigating to bloglist, follow the steps listed below for local development

First, you'll need to source the script.sh file, or you could export the variables (MONGO_URI and PORT) on your own in your shell, however, using the script is much faster.

[user@host]─[/home/user/Desktop/bloglist]
└──╼ # source script.sh

[user@host]─[/home/user/Desktop/bloglist]
└──╼ # npm install

[user@host]─[/home/user/Desktop/bloglist]
└──╼ # npm start

Boostrapping

There are custom git hooks in the hooks dir that you can setup to increase your productivity and ensure quality. The pre-commit hook runs on every commit to run tests and check the code against linting guidelines. The commit-msg hook runs to check the commit message against the standards.

To use the, create a sym link for the hooks dir to .git/hooks/
