Basic CRUD: Flask & MySQL

1. Activate MongoDB server:

   $ cd C:\Program Files\MongoDB\Server\3.6\bin
   $ mongod

   Open new terminal & type again:

   $ cd C:\Program Files\MongoDB\Server\3.6\bin
   $ mongo

   [OPTIONAL] You can create a database & collection first, or let our Flask application do this later. If you wanna create db & col first, do these on Mongo:

   > use lin_flask
   > db.createUser({user:'lintang', pwd:'1234', roles:['readWrite', 'dbAdmin']})
   > db.createCollection('users')

2. Clone this repo. Insert your database URI to database.yaml file, then install all the packages needed. In this project I'm using flask, flask_cors & pymongo:

   $ git clone https://github.com/LintangWisesa/CRUD_Flask_MongoDB.git
   $ cd CRUD_Flask_MongoDB
   $ pip install flask flask_cors pymongo

3. Run the server file. Make sure your MongoDB server is still running. Your application server will run locally at http://localhost:5000/ :

   $ python app.py

4. Give a request to the server. You can use Postman app:

   See the opening screen (home.html)

   GET /

   Post a data to database:

   POST /data
   body request: {name:"x", age:"y"}

   Get all data & specific data by MongoDB ObjectId:

   GET /data
   GET /data/{:id}

   Update a data by MongoDB ObjectId:

   PUT /data/{:id}
   body request: {name:"x", age:"y"}

   Delete a data by MongoDB ObjectId:

   DELETE /data/{:id}

6. Enjoy your code! 😎👌
