💾 Prerequisites

You'll need to have a database inside a project on the MongoDB Cloud and connect to obtain the Mongo URI:

• MongoDB Cloud

Then you'll need to have the following tools installed on your machine:

• GIT
• Node.js

Also, use your preferred code editor and REST client.

🪢 Clone Repository

# execute the git clone command
git clone https://github.com/luisf-csdev/login-jwt.git

# enter the project folder
cd login-api

# install the dependencies
npm install

# create a .env file in the directory's root with the mongo uri and the secret for your token
MONGODB_URI = your mongodb uri
TOKEN_SECRET = "any set of letters and numbers"

# finally, run the nodemon script
npm run nodemon

# the api will start in port:8080 - access <http://localhost:8080> in your rest client
