The BookStore

Plenty of tech books.

Requirements

• docker
• docker compose that supports version '2.4'

How to run locally

To start the project locally, run:

docker-compose up --build

And you should see something like:

api_1      | 
api_1      | > bookstore@1.0.0 start
api_1      | > node app.js
api_1      | 
api_1      | (node:19) DeprecationWarning: current Server Discovery and Monitoring engine is deprecated, and will be removed in a future version. To use the new Server Discover and Monitoring engine, pass option { useUnifiedTopology: true } to the MongoClient constructor.
api_1      | (Use `node --trace-deprecation ...` to show where the warning was created)

This log will take some time to appear because the database is bootstraping and the script is populating the database with some mock data. In other words, only start accessing/testing the app once you see the output as shown above.

Then, to access the bookstore on the browser, type localhost:3000.

Endpoints

There are two HTTP GET method endpoints available:

• GET /. Gets all books. To retrieve books only in certain category, you can use optional query parameter category. For example, to get all books in category "Java", the request will look like GET /?category=Java.

• GET /search?q={title}. Searches books by title. For example, to get all books that contain "Java" in their title, the request will look like GET /search?q=Java.

Resource usage stats

To see how many resources the application "eats", type docker stats after running locally. Make sure the app is running in parallel, otherwise there would be no output.
