Node js REST APIs Development Using Sequelize ORM

Begin phase one of api development by installing and using sequelize with mysql2 connectivity, creating models, and building crud based APIs with express, node, and body-parser.

Configure express for phase one by creating app.js, binding port 8087, and adding a route that returns status, message, and a packages array including express, node, Sequelize, and body parser.

Learn the second method to create a users table with Sequelize by defining a model class, initializing fields, configuring the Sequelize instance, and syncing the model to create the table.

Build a save data API by posting to create a user, using a create method on the user table, and reading body parameters with body parser to return a response.

Organize a Node.js rest api by creating route and database modules with Sequelize for connection, user table creation, and binding routes to Express.

Implement the update data api using a put /update user route that checks the user by id, then updates name and email via Sequelize, handling errors along the way.

Create the users and blogs tables for a node js rest api using sequelize, defining users(name, email, gender, password) and blogs(user_id, title, description), then sync to build the database.

Create a node js register user api using post /register, hash passwords with bcrypt, validate name, email, and gender, and check email existence before insertion.

Learn how to create a MySQL database with Sequelize CLI using the config.json development settings, run Sequelize db create, and verify the database in phpMyAdmin.

Learn to create and use seeders in node applications with Sequelize. Seed data with up methods, and down methods to drop data, and run all or specific seeds.

Learn how to use Sequelize operators to filter data with findAll, applying equals, greater than, greater than equals, between, and in conditions, and combine id and gender filters.

Create employees and projects tables through Sequelize migrations in the third API development phase, defining columns like id, name, email, password, phone number, gender, and project details with status.

Structure node js rest apis with routes and models, implement register, login, and profile endpoints, and configure body parser and bcrypt for secure data.

Develop a user registration API using Sequelize, including findOne checks with Sequelize operators to verify existing users, then create new records in the employees table with bcrypt password hashing.
