2. Setup a MySQL Database;
3. Import the migration file migration_script.sql
4. Create a nodemon.json file and fill it with your DB data:

{
    "env" : {
        "NODE_PORT" : "",
        "NODE_DATABASE" : "",
        "NODE_DATABASE_USER" : "",

Check APIs

To verify that the end-points worked I used Talend API Tester - Free edition, but you can also use other apps like Postman.

1. Create a project.
2. Add a request.
3. Select the method(GET,POST,...) and type the link in the address bar:

http://localhost:port/

4. Click on the "save" button and then on the "send" button.
5. You will see the response.
