Hello Everyone,

I have created a boilerplate application for API development built with Nodejs, ExpressJs, MongoDB.

A boilerplate for REST API Development with Node.js, Express, and MongoDB

Nodejs Expressjs MongoDB Ready-to-use API Project Structure

A ready-to-use boilerplate for REST API Development with Node.js, Express, and MongoDB

Getting started

This is a basic API skeleton written in JavaScript ES2015. Very useful to building a RESTful web APIs for your front-end platforms like Android, iOS or JavaScript frameworks (Angular, Reactjs, etc).

This project will run on NodeJs using MongoDB as database. I had tried to maintain the code structure easy as any beginner can also adopt the flow and start building an API. Project is open for suggestions, Bug reports and pull requests.

Great stuff! Exactly what I needed to keep off a project.

Happy to hear that it helps you. :)

I don't know if I should ask this here or on GitHub, but when I deploy to heroku, I have issues with the environment variables.

"expiresIn" should be a number of seconds or string representing a timespan eg: "1d", "20h", 60

A log of the environment variable shows that the variable in heroku settings is correct.

The same applies to SendGrid's API in the node env, except it's hard coded it doesn't work.

You can refer env.example file. Where you can find configured variables & its examples.

never mind, figured it out. I wrapped the variables using ' ', i removed it and it works
