Bank API
The API is already built for you and not part of the exercise. However, if you're interested to learn how to build an API like this you can follow this series of videos: https://aka.ms/NodeBeginner (videos 17 through 21 covers this exact API). You can also take a look at this interactive tutorial: https://aka.ms/learn/express-api ## Running the server Make sure you have Node.js installed. 1. Git clone this repo The Web-Dev-For-Beginners. 2. Open your terminal and navigate into the Web-Dev-For-Beginners/7-bank-project/api folder 2. Run npm install and wait for the packages to be installed(could take a while depending on the quality of your internet connection). 3. When the installation is over, run npm start and you are good to go. The server should start listening on port 5000. This server will be running together with the main bank app server terminal(listening on port 3000), do not close it. ## API details Route | Description ---------------------------------------------|------------------------------------ GET /api/ | Get server info POST /api/accounts/ | Create an account, ex: { user: 'Yohan', description: 'My budget', currency: 'EUR', balance: 100 } GET /api/accounts/:user | Get all data for the specified account DELETE /api/accounts/:user | Remove specified account POST /api/accounts/:user/transactions | Add a transaction, ex: { date: '2020-07-23T18:25:43.511Z', object: 'Bought a book', amount: -20 } DELETE /api/accounts/:user/transactions/:id | Remove specified transaction
