Node Project Two - Prisma

In this project, you will build API for a bookstore and use Prisma with SQlite.

In this project, you will be building a backend application for a bookstore. They want us to create for them a way to add books in their database and manage the information of their bookstore. The books will have authors.

Set Up The Project With Git

Follow these steps to set up and work on your project:

Create a forked copy of this project.
Clone your OWN version of the repository (Not Gabi's by mistake!).
Create a new branch: git checkout -b <firstName-lastName>.
Implement the project on your newly created <firstName-lastName> branch, committing changes regularly.
Push commits: git push origin <firstName-lastName>.

Minimum Viable Product

Setup your Prisma

Run npm install prisma --save-dev then Run npx prisma init --datasource-provider sqlite

This will generate your Prisma file under the prisma directory.

Your prisma is setup now, you will need to change the datasource db inside your prisma.schema file to:

datasource db {
 provider = "sqlite"
 url      = "file:./bookstore.db"
}

You will need to go ahead and create your models.

Make sure your models and fields follow this instruction:

bookstore - fields: id, name, location, created, updated
author - fields: id, name, created, updated.
book - fields: id, authorId, bookstoreId, title, price, image, created, updated.

Relations: Author to Book is one to many, meaning one author can have many books but each book has one author. Also Bookstore to book is one to many, meaning each Bookstore has many books but each book belongs to one store.

Once you're done with all your schema setup, run npx prisma migrate dev to migrate all your changes to the SQlite database.

Make sure to setup your seed.js file in prisma directory. Add all the data you need in your seed file.

Connect Prisma to your endpoints

Setup your lib directory and instantiate your prisma.
Setup all your endpoints in bookstores.js, authors.js and books.js
Make sure to test all your endpoints with Postman

Stretch Goals

Create new routes for sign up and login and make sure you created new models in Prisma.
Change the database to Planetscale.
