This project explains the working of REST APIs including Controller, DAO, Services
Install Postgres latest version on Mac
Install PgAdmin client latest version on Mac
Clone or download the Stub project given in the Upgrad Project (or create a new repository to start the project)
Start the Postgres service by using below commands below:
Start manually: pg_ctl -D /usr/local/var/postgres start
Stop manually: pg_ctl -D /usr/local/var/postgres stop
Start automatically: "To have launchd start postgresql now and restart at login:" brew services start postgresql
Create a local configuration file with localhost properties as below:
//localhost.properties #environment properties for local development server.host=localhost server.port=5432 database.name=proman database.user=postgres database.password=password
Configure the important configuration details in application.yaml file
Run mvn clean install in the parent module. This will automatically create the model classes by building on the Swagger based JSON files.
For each feature, there is a different JSON file. It will create all the model classes inside the Target folder once the building is complete. Move those files into the proman-api package (parallel to the controller or config package hierarchy).
Create a DB through command line or directly from the PGAdmin client tool, where the name of DB is used as "quora" as given in localhost.properties file.
Run the maven profile activation command (mvn clean install -Psetup) from within the DB module.
Run the Main application file: PromanApiApplication class
This will host the application on localhost:8080 To check out all the Swagger information, use below address:
http://localhost:8080/api/swagger-ui.html
