Cautions And Optimization

The most important thing which you must remember is that you have to change .env file and adjust it according to your hosting.I ran the project in localhost in port 8000.

During authentication checking time user send token in header authorization bearer and a user serial with link at url with them we go to database tokendb and check if both are having same username or not. We do not use your email and password after you login in order to make you safe. tokendb has token and a username based on the user. Serial indicates a name from main user Db. The whole process is in Authenticate middleware.

PORT=8000 SMTP_MAIL=gmailid with which u opened smtp SMTP_PASS=the pass which you got during smtp making IMG=http://localhost:8000 DBURL=mongodb://0.0.0.0:27017/videohub

Port means which port to run it.
Imgpath is a link starting root address ... I used express.static to save image inside public/images. so the image link was like : http://localhost:8000/public/images/imagename.jpg
smtp_mail and smtp_pass are your smtp creation based provided one.
Change DBURL's mongo db urls if you host in mongo atlas.
