This project was developed as part of the Driven Web Full-Stack Bootcamp, a 6-month bootcamp where I started my journey as a web developer.
It is an simple API for organizing and suggesting recommendations for songs using youtubeLinks. Its front-end was not developed.
The code for this project was developed in English.
-
Send new recommendations to the database, with the proper youtube Link and a name for the song.
-
Evaluate other recommendations, voting it as a good or a bad one.
-
We listen to our community! Every recommendation that reaches a low score limit is automatically deleted from the database.
-
You can ask to get random recommendations, so you will never get bored listening to the same songs everyday!
-
You can also ask for the top songs only, setting the amount of songs you want to get from out Top tier!
To run this project in the development mode, you'll need to have a basic environment to run a Node.js App.
-
Run it locally: take note that it will be set in port 4000. If you wish another port, make sure to set it as an enviroment variable.
-
Database: The app is set to work with a DATABASE_URL sent as an environment variable. When using Heroku, for example, this URL is given with the information of the created database.
The following scripts are set for better using of the app:
-
start -> Will start the app locally, setting to use the development database.
-
dev -> Will start the app locally using nodemon package, which allows changes to be automatically updated to the running server.
-
test -> Will run the test files once, setting to use the testing database. For now, there are only unit tests applied to the project, none in need to use a database, but the settings for integration tests are already set.
-
test:watch -> will run the same tests as the previous script, but constantly, re-running at each change on any file of the app. It might be useful in case a change is being done, as it shows in real-time if any test has started to fail after a change.
