Movie Theater API

TASK: You are a Software Engineer for a movie theater company, and your team is tasked with creating an API that can work with and serve data on our database through an application server. We will be testing our API endpoints using Postman, so no UI code is needed for now.

Your main task is creating the API! We will be working with Express to create Routers for Users and Movies. We have a seed file that contains a list of users and movies to add to the database. We will need to include that seed file in our main server. While we don't have a front-end, we will be using Postman to interact with our API.

We'll have 2 Express Routers:

• Users
• Movies

Specifications

User story

As a user, I want to keep track of the movies I have watched, so that I can satisfy my urge to list things

Install Dependencies

To install the dependencies, run npm install.

Once everything is installed, you can run npm run seed to reset and fill your database with initial seed data. You can run this command at any time to reset the database to the initial seed data.

Start the Server

• Run npm start to start the server.
• Press Ctrl + C to stop the server at any time.

Define Routes

Create the route handlers for the project, per these definitions:

Users

See routes/users.js.

• POST /users
• GET /users
• GET /users/:userId
• PATCH /users/:userId
• DELETE /users/:userId
• GET /users/:userId/movies (get all movies that a user has watched)
• POST /users/:userId/movies/:movieId (create an association between a user and a movie) (no body needed)

Movies

See routes/movies.js.

• POST /movies
• GET /movies
• GET /movies/:movieId
• PATCH /movies/:movieId
• DELETE /movies/:movieId
• GET /movies/:movieId/users (get all users who have watched a movie)
• POST /movies/:movieId/users/:userId (create an association between a movie and a user) (no body needed)

Tests

Test your endpoints manually using Postman or similar.

Commit & Push

• git add ., git commit -m "somemessage" and git push so we can see your work.
