Book Description
By finelybook
When building RESTful services,it is really important to choose the right framework. Node.js,with its asynchronous,event-driven architecture,is exactly the right choice for building RESTful APIs.
This third edition of RESTful Web API Design with Node.js 10 will teach you to create scalable and rich RESTful applications based on the Node.js platform. You will be introduced to the latest NPM package handler and understand how to use it to customize your RESTful development process. You will begin by understanding the key principle that makes an HTTP application a RESTful-enabled application. After writing a simple HTTP request handler,you will create and test Node.js modules using automated tests and mock objects; explore using the NoSQL database,MongoDB,to store data; and get to grips with using self-descriptive URLs. You’ll learn to set accurate HTTP status codes along with understanding how to keep your applications backward-compatible. Also,while implementing a full-fledged RESTful service,you will use Swagger to document the API and implement automation tests for a REST-enabled endpoint with Mocha. Lastly,you will explore some authentication techniques to secure your application.
