LocalLibrary

This is a pratice following MDN's express tutorial: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Learn/Server-side/Express_Nodejs

MDN implemets their own version here: https://github.com/mdn/express-locallibrary-tutorial

This project is deployed in heroku so you can visit it: https://intense-everglades-72781.herokuapp.com/

Quick Start

To get this project up and running locally on your computer:

1. Set up a Nodejs development environment.
2. Once you have node setup, enter the following commands in the root of your clone of this repo:

   yarn add
   npm run serverstart   #For linux
   

3. Open a browser to http://localhost:3000/ to open the library site.

Note: The library uses a default MongoDb database hosted on MongoDB Atlas. You should use a different database for your own code experiments.

// './app.js'

// Set up mongoose connection
const dev_db_url =
  'mongodb+srv://cooluser:[email protected]/local_library?retryWrites=true';
const mongoDB = process.env.MONGODB_URI_LOCAL_LIBRARY || dev_db_url;
mongoose.connect(mongoDB, { useNewUrlParser: true, useUnifiedTopology: true });

export MONGODB_URI_LOCAL_LIBRARY='mongodb+srv://your_username:[email protected]/local_library?retryWrites=true&w=majority'
