##Module_5 assignment
For this assignment, you're going to fork this repository to your own Github account and clone that repository locally. Inside the repo you'll find a placeholder for app.js, a placeholder routes/truckRoutes.js, a model/truckModel.js, and a 'public' directory. Inside the public directory you'll find an index.html file, a trucks.css file, and a client.js file.
There are two parts to this assignment.
Part 1: import the foodTrucksJSON.js data into your instance of mongodb by following the instructions in the dataImport.txt file in the Module_5 repository. In your express application, refactor the following routes (remove the /food-types and /food-types/:name routes for this assignment) to use a Mongoose model to retrieve, update, or delete the relevant data. You're going to define your truckModel module in a file called models/truckModel.js. The database you'll connect to is foodTruckAPI (this will be part of the connection string you use to connect in the mongoose.connect() call)
GET /trucks
GET /trucks/:id (was /:name, but now make this /:id)
POST /trucks
DELETE /trucks/:id (was /:name but now make this /:id)
Part 2: refactor these same routes by moving them from app.js into a new route files: routes/truckRoutes.js
In your new route file you will use the express.router() method to create a router object, onto which you will chain the relevant routes. This route file will be made into a Node module by using module.exports to export the router object you create. The paths you mount those routes on in your routes module will be relative to the path specified in app.js when you app.use() to mount the route modules. In app.js, for example, you're going to require in your routes module, then use them, passing the route you want to use it for as the first argument:
app.use(path, routing-middleware-function);
Use the existing files in the Module_5 assignment repository. Additionally, make sure you've created the package.json file and added any necessary dependencies to it (e.g. express, body-parser, mongoose). Additionally, be sure to include a .gitignore file that excludes the node_modules directory from your own repository.
Use the slides from Module_4b and Module_5 to see how to complete the two parts of this assignment.
