This repository contains a simple REST API built using Express, Node.js, and MongoDB. It was developed as an exercise for a course at the SENA.

• Provides endpoints for managing posts (CRUD operations).
• Connects to a MongoDB database securely using environment variables.
• Uses Mongoose for interacting with MongoDB data.

1. Clone this repository:

git clone https://github.com/jmferreirab/Express-Rest-API-Exercise.git

2. Install dependencies:

npm install

3. Create a .env file in the root directory and add the following variables:

DB_USER=your_mongodb_user
DB_PASSWORD=your_mongodb_password
DB_NAME=your_mongodb_database_name
DB_HOST=your_mongodb_host

4. Start the server:

npm start

• GET /servicios/posts: Get a list of all posts.

• The routes/post.js file defines the routes and logic for the post endpoints.
• The models directory contains Mongoose models for the data schema.
