This project provides a backend solution for a task management system built with Node.js and Express.js. It includes RESTful APIs for performing CRUD operations on tasks, data validation, error handling, and integration with MongoDB/MySQL for data storage. Additionally, it incorporates rate limiting, Winston logger, email verification using emailRegex, authentication, and authorization for enhanced security, stability, and monitoring capabilities.
- Node.js and Express.js Setup: Set up a robust Node.js server using the Express.js framework.
- RESTful APIs: Implement CRUD operations (Create, Read, Update, Delete) for managing tasks via HTTP endpoints.
- Data Validation: Ensure data integrity by validating input data, such as task title and description, to prevent errors.
- Database Integration: Utilize MongoDB/MySQL as the database to store and manage task information efficiently.
- Error Handling: Implement comprehensive error handling mechanisms to provide meaningful feedback to clients during API requests.
- Winston Logger: Integrate Winston logger to log application events, requests, responses, and errors for monitoring and debugging purposes.
- Rate Limiter: Implement rate limiting to control the number of requests clients can make within a specific timeframe, enhancing system stability and security.
- Email Verification: Use emailRegex for email validation and implement email verification functionality to ensure valid user registration.
- Authentication and Authorization: Implement authentication and authorization mechanisms to secure endpoints and restrict access to authorized users only.
- Clone this repository.
- Install dependencies using
npm install. - Configure the database connection settings in
.envfile. - Run the server using
