express + mysql + prisma + docker

All in one Node.js boilerplate for develop backend API-based App with DB

• TypeScript (https://github.com/Microsoft/TypeScript)
• Express.js (https://github.com/expressjs/express)
• Prisma ORM (https://github.com/prisma/prisma)
• PostgreSQL (https://www.postgresql.org/)
• pgAdmin GUI tool for PostgreSQL (https://www.pgadmin.org/)
• Docker-Compose for running all together

Requirements:

• docker >= 17.12.0+
• docker-compose

Quick Start

• Clone or download this repository

git clone https://github.com/AlexSKuznetsov/prisma-express.git

• Run Docker containers

cd prisma-express && docker-compose up -d

Access to PGAmin

• go to localhost:5555
• login with: [e-mail] / admin (as a default)
  • Hostname/address: postgres (as a default)
  • username/password: postgres (as a default)

Using the REST API

POST

• /api/data: Create a new user
  • Body:

{
    "name": "Alex",
    "email": "[e-mail]",
    "title": "Software engineer",
    "bio": "Born in Moscow"
}

GET

• api/data: get all data

[
    {
        "id": 1,
        "email": "[e-mail]",
        "name": "Alex",
        "posts": [
            {
                "id": 1,
                "createdAt": "2021-08-14T17:17:27.787Z",
                "updatedAt": "2021-08-14T17:17:27.789Z",
                "title": "Software engineer",
                "content": null,
                "published": false,
                "authorId": 1
            }
        ],
        "profile": {
            "id": 1,
            "bio": "Born in Moscow",
            "userId": 1
        }
    }
]

Local Development workarounds

Requirements:

• Node.js 14 version or higher

---

• Stop Prisma container docker stop prisma-api (container name from .yml file)
• Make sure that you have .env file inside prisma directory with this content

DATABASE_URL="postgresql://postgres:postgres@localhost:5432/TEST_DB?schema=public"

• Install dependencies npm i
• Run npx prisma generate for recreating connection
• Run npm run dev for starting local API server

You can also run Prisma Studio locally (basic visual interface to access DB)

• Run npx prisma studio
• Open http://localhost:5556

Let's say you made changes to Prisma API server source code and want to check how it works together with the rest of the Docker services.

• You can recreate only one compose service: docker-compose up -d --force-recreate --no-deps prisma-app

• Or recreate all the containers: docker-compose up -d --build --force-recreate

Happy coding :)
