Getting Started

To get a local copy up and running follow these simple steps.

Prerequisites

In order to get a copy of the project you will require you to have Node.js (v14+) and the NPM package manager installed. If you don't have it, you can download the latest version of Node.js from the official website which also installs the NPM package manager by default.

Installation

Open the terminal in the folder in which you wish to clone the repository and enter the following command:

git clone https://github.com/prasoonsoni/node-express-starter.git
cd node-express-starter

Install all the NPM packages:

npm i

In order to run the server:

npm i -D nodemon (One time installation)
npx nodemon

Note that you will have to add your own .env file at the root directory and add your own environment variables for the project to build.

Following are the environment variables used for backend:

• MONGO_URI - MongoDB URI for your database
