For this weeks challenge I was tasked with creating a e-commerce back end site. Using a working Express.js API file, I was tasked with configuring it to use sequelize to interact with the MySQL database.
-
The motivation behind this project was to become more familiar with routes, sequalize and MySQL.
-
I built this project to advance my skills with working with Sequalize and API Get, Post, Put and Delete routes. This was then tested in Insomnia
-
Completion of this project allowed for me to become more knowledgeable on implementing Sequalize with MySQL and the use of different routes.
In order to install my project, you will need the following
- Git
- IDE with JS/Node.js capabilities
To start: Clone the repository on GitHub then open Git on your local machine. First find a location of your choice on your computer that you want the folder to be in.
- To change working directory, use the command cd followed by a folder or cd.. to move back
- Using the command git clone and adding the cloned directory, you will have a copy of this project
- To deploy to your ide type code.
The purpose of this project is to make a functional backend ecommerce site using Sequalize and MySQL that is then tested using Insomnia.
