The main goal is to create a web application which can authenticate via JWT (Json Web Token), and serve an API to GET a list of breweries filtered by a query based on the openbrewerydb.
For the web serving part you could use either
Please include a middleware for logging on all requests
The login endpoint ( POST /login ) should return a signed JWT token on correct username/password.
The token should be signed with https://github.com/auth0/node-jsonwebtoken and the signing secret should be provided via config.
For config handling we recommend our guide: https://codingsans.com/blog/node-config-best-practices
The POST request's body should contain { username: string, password: string }.
The following interface describes the user.
{ id: string; username: string; password: string; }
The users (with the given interface) should be stored inside a database. You can choose any db you like in your solution but the credentials should be provided via config.
The breweries endpoint ( GET /breweries ) should be guarded by a custom middleware.
The middleware should validate the token and check if the user exists in the database.
The datasource should be the OpenBreweryDB https://www.openbrewerydb.org/
Use the search API to fetch the data https://api.openbrewerydb.org/breweries/search?query=dog
To fetch the data use either:
The search param should be provided in the query params ( GET /breweries?query=dog )
If the user is not authenticated on GET /breweries return 401.
If the user not provided a query param return data from https://api.openbrewerydb.org/breweries
If the user called any other then POST /login or GET /breweries return 404.
Please use typescript, we included linting and testing in this project.
You can start the project with yarn start.
You can check the lint and formatting of the project with yarn lint.
