Mongoose API Workshop - Exercise 2 - Implement Mongoose

Replace dummy data by mongoose database calls

  • Setup a Mongoose connection

    • do this BEFORE all your routes
      • do NOT setup the mongoose connection WITHIN a route!
    • do not use any mongoose connection events

  • Setup schema and model for a flat

    • A flat document should be defined like this:
      • address_full: String (Street Nr, Zipcode, City, Country)
      • district: String,
      • area_sqm: Number,
      • rooms: Number,
      • rent: Number,
      • landlord: String
    • Make the field address required
    • Give the field rooms a default value 1

  • Adapt routes - Replace prototype dummy data by real database implementation

    • replace dummy data in routes with Mongoose CRUD
    • use a then() handler after each mongoose operation
      • use res.send() within your then() handler to send data back to the browser
    • use a catch(err) handler after each mongoose operation => call the next() function and pass the received error into it

  • Test your routes

    • Create three flats using your POST fetch call
    • Retrieve all flats using your GET fetch call
    • And also test retrieving a single flat, updating and deleting a flat
