Drivenets Router Management Backend

This project provides a mock backend server for the Drivenets Router Management interview application using json-server.

Description

The Drivenets Router Management Backend is a simple REST API server that simulates a backend for router management operations. It uses json-server to provide a fully functioning REST API based on a JSON file that serves as the database.

Prerequisites

• Node.js (v14 or higher)
• npm (v6 or higher)

Installation

1. Clone the repository:

git clone https://github.com/yourusername/drivenets-router-management-be.git
cd drivenets-router-management-be

2. Install dependencies:

npm install

Usage

Starting the server

To start the mock backend server:

npm start

This will start the server on port 3001. The API will be available at http://localhost:3001.

API Endpoints

RESTful routes for the routers are available at http://localhost:3001/routers.

for example:

[
  {
    "id": "r-000001",

    "maxBandwidthMbps": 1000
  },
  {
    "id": "r-000006",
    "name": "High-Speed Access Point",
    "type": "wifi",
    "createdAt": "2022-01-08T07:06:11.000Z",

    "coordinates": {
      "latitude": -38.3813,
      "longitude": 156.3821
    },
    "wifiChannels": [4, 20, 33, 16],
    "supportsDualBand": true
  }
]

You would have the following endpoints:

• GET /routers - Get all routers
• GET /routers/1 - Get router with id 1
• POST /routers - Create a new router
• PUT /routers/1 - Update router with id 1
• PATCH /routers/1 - Partially update router with id 1
• DELETE /routers/1 - Delete router with id 1

Similar endpoints would be available for interfaces.
