Josh Hoy's Personal Blog Rest Api

Description

This projects intention was a way to put in play concepts and tech that I wanted to gain more exposure to. It is still a work in progress and is changing freqently... when I find the time.

It is a blog rest api built with Node.js, Express, using Typescript; stores data in PostgreSQL using TypeORM and Aws S3; allows oauth authentication with GitHub; and ensures authentication with JWT tokens. It is then built into a docker images, pushed toAws ECR, and hosted in Elastic Beanstalk using Aws Route 53 to ensure domains are pointed where they need to be. It also has an email serivce that uses Nodemailer that uses Aws SES to allow for a contact page.

2. Setup database settings inside `ormconfig.json` file
3. Run `npm start` command
4. typeorm migration:create -n CreateAdminUser
5. npm run migration:run
