Geo App Backend In Node

Backend for my geolocation app built in Swift from my YouTube Video!

How to use it

1. Npm install the modules.
2. Create a .env where you will have:

  NODE_ENV = development
  PORT = 5000
  MONGO_URI = Your Cluster connection string from Atlas: MongoDB

3. Npm run dev

endpoints (GET & POST)

http://localhost:5000/api/v1/user
http://localhost:5000/api/v1/pins

JSON Format - POST req

User (example)

{
    "userId": "andresvidoza",
    "location": {
        "coordinates": [20.774756, -50.076481]
    }
}

Pins (example)

{
    "pinId": "1",
    "location": {
        "coordinates": [20.774756, -50.076481]
    }
}

NOTE

You can expand the app by creating an authentication system which will allow you to register users and start reading their real-time location. If time allows it, I will eventually expand this project even more.
