api

This repository contains the code used by the Padscape server to handle requests, as well as the landing website.

Using

This requires having Git, Node.js, and MongoDB installed

> git clone https://github.com/padscape/web-client
> cd api
> npm init

Testing

Before you run the code, make sure to add a valid connection URI to the MongoDB Atlas database or comment out line 4 in connection.js (the one we are using cannot be found in the code for security reasons). Then, go to http://localhost:3000 and start testing the website and API locally. In client.js you can find a simple library to use the API. It relies on jQuery's ajax() method to run.

Technologies Used

  • Heroku for deploying the website
  • MongoDB Atlas for hosting the database in the cloud
  • Node.js for the back-end
  • jQuery for document traversal
  • Bootstrap 4 for the website styling
