📜 API Doc

This projects uses SpringDoc (Swagger) to generate API documentation. You can check it by runing the project and accessing swagger-ui

🚀 Running locally

# clone the repository
git clone https://github.com/ecureuill/milhasapi.git

# Navigate to the cloned directory
cd milhasapi

MilhasAPI uses MySQL as the database. Create a MySQL database, named milhasapi and update the database configuration in src/main/resources/application.properties file:

spring.datasource.url=jdbc:mysql://[URL]:[PORT]/milhasapi
spring.datasource.username=[USERNAME]
spring.datasource.password=[PASSWORD]

MilhasAPI is integrated to ChatGPT to generate destination description. Create an API key on openai platform and export it as environmet variable.

export OPENAI_KEY=123

Run the project

mvn spring-boot:run

To use this API, you can make HTTP requests to the provided endpoints using tools like cURL or Postman.
