SAMPLE API IN NODEJS & MONGODB

API built in nodejs & mongodb using express, mongoose & bodyparser. The app assumes mongodb is configured to use port number 27017.

Perform the following steps:

1. Clone the repo locally and run npm install to install all dependencies.

2. Run comman node server.js to start the socket server. Server will start on port 3000

3. Using some tools such as cURL or REST API extensions for web browsers test the API mothods.

The details about the API methods are as follows:

i) GET http://localhost:3000/api/request?connId=19&timeout=80 runs the request for timeout time and returns {status:"OK"} thereafter. If there is already a request with the given connId it return connId {status: "Connection Id already exists."} If it was killed before completion, it return {status: "Process killed prematurely."}

ii) PUT http://localhost:3000/api/kill with payload such as {connId: 179} Kills the request with the given id and return {status:"OK"} If no such id exists, it return {status: "Invalid connection Id"}

iii) GET http://localhost:3000/api/serverStatus Returns the id and the time until timeout of all requests which have not timedout yet in the josn format as:

[{ "id": 1, "timeleft": 356 }, { "id": 4, "timeleft": 375 }]
