-
Node.js: Platform to build the backend application.
-
Express: Framework to manage routes and middleware.
-
bcrypt: Library to encrypt passwords before storing them in the database.
-
jsonwebtoken (JWT): Library to generate access tokens, providing secure authentication.
-
Sequelize: ORM (Object-Relational Mapping) to interact with the database.
-
MSSQL: Database used to store user information and other data.
1. User Registration:
-
New users can register by providing a username and password.
-
The password is encrypted using bcrypt before being stored in the database to improve security.
2. User Authentication:
-
Registered users can authenticate by providing their credentials.
-
If the credentials are valid, a JWT token is generated and returned to the user.
-
This token is used to authorize access to protected routes in the frontend application.
3. CRUD of Users, Students, Teachers, Sections, Subjects and Evaluations:
-
Create: Allows you to add new data to the database.
-
Read: Allows you to obtain information on existing data.
-
Update: Allows you to modify the data information.
-
Delete: Allows you to delete information from the database.
This project represents a robust backend API that handles user management with registration, authentication and CRUD operations functionalities. It uses bcrypt to secure passwords and jsonwebtoken to manage access tokens, providing a solid foundation for integrating with a frontend.
