Built REST API using Java spring boot Application with database

Introduction

This application is a RESTful API built using Java Spring Boot, which provides a set of endpoints to perform CRUD (Create, Read, Update, Delete) operations on a database. The API follows REST architectural principles and supports JSON data format.

Features

• Create, read, update, and delete resources using HTTP methods.
• Validate request data and handle error cases gracefully.
• Utilize database for persistent storage of resources.

Technologies Used

• Java: Programming language.
• Spring Boot: Framework for building Java applications.
• Spring MVC: Web framework for building RESTful APIs.
• Spring Data JPA: Persistence framework for interacting with the database.
• Hibernate: Object-relational mapping library.
• MySQL: Database for persistent storage.
• JSON: Data format for request and response payloads.
• Git: Version control system.

Getting Started

To run the application on your local machine, follow these steps:

1. Clone the repository: git clone https://github.com/SamyakSheokar2203/Rest-API-using-Java-SpringBoot.git

2. Navigate to the project directory: cd <Rest-API-using-Java-SpringBoot/tree/main/src/main/java/com/springrest/springrest>

3. Install the necessary dependencies: mvn install

4. Configure the database connection in the application.properties file.

5. Run the application: mvn spring-boot: run

6. The API will be available at http://localhost:8080/api.

The following are the main endpoints provided by the API:

• GET /api/resources: Retrieves a list of resources.
