App/Rest API Configuration

# start setup cli
$ npm run setup

• Setup CLI Module - mongoose-auto-api.cli

Model Setup

• Add your models by adding your Mongoose models in the /models directory in the root of your project
  • The API is designed for use with Strings, Numbers, Arrays, Dates, and Booleans.
  • This is intentional for a more relational approach to the database in which models can be joined together using MongoDB's $lookup functionality instead of opting for nested objects within documents. This feature is built in to the API.
• Model Setup - mongoose-auto-api.info

Run API Standalone

# start rest api
$ npm run api

• Rest API Module - mongoose-auto-api.rest

Populate and Access Data

• Use the Rest API to populate and access your data in any language of choice using web requests OR...
• Use the consumer module for Node.js to easily interface with your data with pre-built methods
  • Consumer Module - mongoose-auto-api.consumer

Using the Web App

• You can test your own custom components alongside the included CRUD app in dev mode
• Serve in production mode when ready
• The Web App/Rest API will be served according to your appConfig.json specifications (which can be edited with the CLI)
• Your secret key must be created first with the CLI or via the API to add a user, this is for security purposes

Array items - Unique option

Array items - Set option

• The unique option pushes only unique items into the array

Error feedback
