- Copy the
.env.example
file and rename it into.env
, then update your connection url in theDATABASE_URL
field - Update your provider in the
prisma/schema.prisma
file if you're using database other than MySQL - Run your migration
npx prisma migrate (dev|deploy)

- Make sure you have completed the Installation and Setup step
- You can then start the app using the
start
script
npm run start
- Now the endpoint should be available according to your environment variables configuration. Default is at
http://localhost:3000
The API documentation is available online here. You can also import the Postman Collection File (postman_collection.json)
into your Postman App alternatively
- There's no authentication, you may want to implement your own. I don't want to force anyone into using a specific authentication method, choose whatever you love
