BACKEND API

Making a backend API call?

Tips and Tricks

• The Tables are refreshed and restarted on every restart with clean data each time your run npm run type-start. Accidentally delete or add bad data? No problem, just CTRL C out of the npm script and rerun it.
• Although status codes are returned; the wrapper should handle all the errors for you

Examples

Posting a New School: await saveSchool({ name: "newnewnew@email.net", address: "NewFirstName", longitude: 1, latitude: 2, })

Updating an existing User: (note you need the UID) await updateUser(2, { email: "newnewnew@email.net", firstName: "NewFirstName", middleName: "newMiddleName", lastName: "newLastName", address: "new Address", isAdmin: false, password: "testnewpassUpdated"});

Backend Options; can add additional calls to smooth out operations if needed:

• Can add soft delete / restore

TODOS

Jackson: Bulk import:

• check deleting entry combinations
  • esp for those with multiple errors in a single row
