Implementation of a bulletproof node.js API

Overview:

The "Bulletproof Node.js architecture" is a server architecture example repository that aims to provide a scalable and reliable architecture for Node.js projects. The repository includes a user CRUD API with authentication capabilities. It emphasizes the use of well-defined API validation, logging, continuous integration, and documentation tools. The architecture is designed for small startups or one-developer army projects, offering scalability while keeping code and maintenance overheads low.

Features:

  • API Validation: Makes use of the Celebrate library to define request body schemas at the route level, making it easier for frontend developers to understand API endpoint expectations without the need for extensive documentation.
  • Unit Tests Examples: Planned feature to include examples of unit tests for the project.
  • Cluster Mode: Planned feature to support running the server in cluster mode for improved performance.
  • Logging Layer: Incorporates a logging layer to provide better visibility into server operations.
  • Agenda Dashboard: Planned feature to add an Agenda dashboard for scheduling tasks.
  • Continuous Integration with CircleCI: Integration with CircleCI ensures continuous integration and automated testing of the project.
  • Deploys Script and Docs for AWS Elastic Beanstalk and Heroku: Planned feature to provide deployment scripts and documentation for deploying the project on AWS Elastic Beanstalk and Heroku.
  • Integration Test with Newman: Planned feature to include integration tests using Newman.
  • Instructions on TypeScript Debugging with VSCode: Planned feature to provide instructions on how to debug TypeScript code using VSCode.
express
Express

Express.js is a simple Node.js framework for single, multi-page, and hybrid web applications.

eslint
Eslint

ESLint is a linter for JavaScript that analyzes code to detect and report on potential problems and errors, as well as enforce consistent code style and best practices, helping developers to write cleaner, more maintainable code.

typescript
Typescript

TypeScript is a superset of JavaScript, providing optional static typing, classes, interfaces, and other features that help developers write more maintainable and scalable code. TypeScript's static typing system can catch errors at compile-time, making it easier to build and maintain large applications.
