Small backend REST API example for node written in typescript and with jwt authentication.

how to install

Open a terminal and clone the repository into your folder:

git clone [email protected]:malahmen/node-ts-be.git

Create a .env file in the root folder.

touch .env

Define the following variables in it:

HOST='localhost'
PORT='3000'
DB_HOST='127.0.0.1'
DB_PORT='59535'
DB_USER='root'
DB_PASSWORD='your-password'
DB_NAME='your-database-name'
DB_DIALECT='mysql'
AUTH_SECRET='this-is-here-only-for-development-purposes'
AUTH_TOKEN_TTL='86400'

I had a kubernetes service runing on localhost, hence the DB_HOST and DB_PORT values.

If you have a local mysql DB, just use localhost and 3306 as values.

Run the following command:

npm i

how to run the code

Open a terminal in the root folder and run the command:

cls && npm run dev
