Overview

This product analysis is for a fact checking API built on a TypeScript framework called Nest. The API utilizes ES2017 features such as Async/Await and npm packages like Express and MongoDB (Mongoose) for seamless development. It also has features like consistent coding styles with editorconfig, support for Docker, Git hooks with husky, authentication and authorization with passport, and continuous integration support with Github Actions.

Features

  • Framework TypeScript starter repository (Nest): Provides a solid foundation for building the fact checking API with TypeScript.
  • ES2017 latest features like Async/Await: Utilizes modern JavaScript features for writing asynchronous code in a more synchronous-like manner.
  • Uses npm: Relies on the npm package manager for managing dependencies and building the application.
  • Express + MongoDB (Mongoose): Uses the Express framework for creating the API endpoints and MongoDB (Mongoose) for interacting with the database.
  • Consistent coding styles with editorconfig: Enforces consistent coding styles across the development team using an editorconfig file.
  • Docker support: Provides support for running the API inside a Docker container, making it easy to deploy and manage.
  • Git hooks with husky: Enables the usage of Git hooks with husky to automate tasks or enforce certain rules before committing or pushing code.
  • Authentication and Authorization with passport: Implements authentication and authorization using the passport library, allowing secure access to the API's resources.
  • Continuous integration support with Github Actions: Integrates with Github Actions to automatically run tests and perform other CI tasks whenever code is pushed or a pull request is made.
