JournalApp

A simple End-to-End Encrypted (E2EE) journal application built with Spring Boot and MongoDB.

Features

• Create, read, update, and delete journal entries
• RESTful API
• MongoDB for persistent storage
• Health check endpoint

Requirements

• Java 17+
• Maven
• MongoDB (running locally on default port 27017, or configure in application.properties)

Getting Started

1. Clone the repository

git clone <repo-url>
cd JournalApp

2. Configure MongoDB

By default, the app connects to MongoDB at localhost:27017 and uses the journaldb database. You can change this in src/main/resources/application.properties.

3. Build and Run

./mvnw spring-boot:run

Or build the JAR:

./mvnw clean package
java -jar target/journalApp-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT.jar

API Endpoints

Health Check

• GET /health-check → returns Ok

Journal Entries

• GET /journal → List all journal entries
• POST /journal → Create a new journal entry
  • Body: { "title": "...", "content": "..." }
• GET /journal/id/{id} → Get a journal entry by ID
• PUT /journal/id/{id} → Update a journal entry by ID
  • Body: { "title": "...", "content": "..." }
• DELETE /journal/id/{id} → Delete a journal entry by ID

{
  "id": "<ObjectId>",
  "title": "My Day",

}

Data Model

• id: MongoDB ObjectId
