How to Build a REST API with Node JS and Express

[@RianY2K]

Love your Tutorial, hope more video about Express and Node JS , especially how to secure API and login with JWT

[@sr1n1k]

well done!

[@jonice4229]

how about if i want to block others from using my api?

[@Amin04]

Make condition for special key as example

[@Dalamain]

This was great, I think if you ever make an updated version be sure to include nodemon, it's doesn't take long to include. Stopping and Starting the server manually all the time.... yuck.

[@kendriip]

dom i think the repository is private

[@dcode-software]

Hey should be OK now

[@loydcose2780]

Can i use that for my small ecommerce project? Login system, user records etc?

[@waffiqaziz3273]

Thank you, ur explanation is very clearly and to the point

[@SouthernHerdsman]

Thank you. I am trying to build an api atm, this video came out right on time.

[@alpachino468]

I'd love to see database and JWT implementation

[@angeloedz]

perfect, for some reason i was unable to find any guides that show how to get started as easily as you do. you saved me.

[@swapnilkhopade989]

Thanks a lot for the video...

[@ssteven_johnson]

I don't comment often on !yt, but this quick tutorial is great! The length of the video is perfect and the instructor speaks in relatable terms and is able to explain almost all of issues one might run into. Great video and content...

[@ayencoscolfield3312]

Good contents am knew in backend REST ApI stuff but am liking this, but by the way does this involve building database service objects with your application Dockerfile as build context using docker compose

Excellent tutorial. I had to use Postman instead of Insomnia because my computer is old OS 10.11 (El Capitan).

simple api CRUD in-memmory db what use of express?

[@bastiaanbuitelaar6287]

Because the express.json() middleware is already used, res.status(201).json(...); can also be written as res.status(201).send(...); It will work the same.

[@kiwizebon2273]

Hey Dom - isn’t 404 error should be in try as we are still sending the right request of 404 and catch should have 500 status code error??

[@FlygOnLiTe]

Do the endpoints persist if I want to keep any processes running between API requests or do they die like serverless functions?

[@ramvpage]

[@dcode-software]

Thanks. Will fix it shortly

[@lucasferreira8229]

is it easy to implement an API in a system? I've seen a few companies that require that the candidate applying for that job knows how to create, use, and implement an API with NodeJS. I'm focusing on front-end, and wanna learn just the basics to learn how to deal with APIs.

[@protocode_227]

why use lodash

[@anim8dideas849]

install loadsh with this command: npm install lodash --save

[@anim8dideas849]

@Mark Teena opps my bad, im not into Node JS like that. I didn't use loadash cuz it forgot to install it with the --save tag. so it was not working for me until I installed it with the "--save" tag. I assumed he was asking why brother with it since he does not tell use how to install it correctly in the tutorial and removing it doesn't effect the API if your using you own custom code. using loadash is tangential to the goal of this tutorial.

I was looking to create a simple site so when a employer wanted to leave me a message, I'd receive it, from my resume, you know, with a text area for them to leave me a message. This has helped me understand how to create that.
