Introduction

This is a starting application for create an API with a Node.js and Express, using PostgreSQL for database and Sequelize as ORM.

The server side Express code will be served by a node server using Nodemon which helps in automatically restarting the server whenever server side code changes.

git clone git@github.com:ParmentierChristophe/simple-nodejs-postgresql.git

or

git clone https://github.com/ParmentierChristophe/simple-nodejs-postgresql.git

# Go inside the directory
cd simple-nodejs-postgresql

# Install dependencies

# Start development server
yarn dev (or npm run dev)

Documentation

Folder Structure

the entrance of the application is index.js, on folder database All files created by Sequelize (migrations, seeds, models, config) and on folder server all files for API and for server (config, modules, controllers, middlewares).

Folder Database

In the database folder you already have two models and the migration files for creating two Posts and Users tables with a relationship. to create these tables, make with Sequelize:

sequelize db:migrate

You also seeds, make with Sequilize :

sequelize db:seed:all
