Question 1

Create a simple Express.js server with a single route that responds with "Hello, World!" when
accessed via a GET request.

Set up an Express.js server.

Define a single route (/) that responds with "Hello, World!" when accessed.

Code:

const express = require('express');

const app = express();

const port = 3000;

app.get('/', (req, res) => {

res.send('Hello, World!');

});

app.listen(port, () => {

console.log(`Server is running on http://localhost:${port}`);

});

Question 2

Create an Express.js route that responds with a JSON object containing a list of users when accessed
via a GET request.

Define a route (/users) that responds with a JSON object containing a list of users.

Code:

const express = require('express');

const app = express();

const port = 3000;

const users = [

{ id: 1, name: 'Alice' },

{ id: 2, name: 'Bob' },

 { id: 3, name: 'Charlie' }

];

app.get('/users', (req, res) => {

res.json(users);

});

app.listen(port, () => {

console.log(`Server is running on http://localhost:${port}`);

});

Question 3

Create an Express.js route that allows a user to submit their name via a POST request and responds
with a greeting message that includes their name.

Set up body parsing middleware to handle JSON data.

Define a route (/greet) that accepts a POST request with a JSON body containing a user's name.

Respond with a greeting message that includes the submitted name.

Code:

const express = require('express');

const app = express();

const port = 3000;

// Middleware to parse JSON bodies

app.use(express.json());

app.post('/greet', (req, res) => {

const name = req.body.name;

res.send(`Hello, ${name}!`);

});
app.listen(port, () => {

console.log(`Server is running on http://localhost:${port}`);

});

Question 4

Create an Express.js route that accepts a user ID as a URL parameter and responds with the user's
information if the ID exists, or a 404 error if it doesn't.

Define a route (/users/:id) that accepts a URL parameter for the user ID.

Respond with the user's information if the ID exists, otherwise respond with a 404 error.

Code:

const express = require('express');

const app = express();

const port = 3000;

const users = [

{ id: 1, name: 'Alice' },

{ id: 2, name: 'Bob' },

{ id: 3, name: 'Charlie' }

];

app.get('/users/:id', (req, res) => {

const userId = parseInt(req.params.id);

const user = users.find(u => u.id === userId);

if (user) {

res.json(user);

} else {

res.status(404).send('User not found');

});
app.listen(port, () => {

console.log(`Server is running on http://localhost:${port}`);

});

Question 5

Create an Express.js route that allows users to update their name via a PUT request. The request
should include the user ID as a URL parameter and the new name in the request body.

Set up body parsing middleware to handle JSON data.

Define a route (/users/:id) that accepts a PUT request with a URL parameter for the user ID and a
JSON body containing the new name.

Update the user's name if the ID exists, otherwise respond with a 404 error.

Code:

const express = require('express');

const app = express();

const port = 3000;

// Middleware to parse JSON bodies

app.use(express.json());

let users = [

{ id: 1, name: 'Alice' },

{ id: 2, name: 'Bob' },

{ id: 3, name: 'Charlie' }

];

app.put('/users/:id', (req, res) => {

const userId = parseInt(req.params.id);

const newName = req.body.name;

const userIndex = users.findIndex(u => u.id === userId);

 if (userIndex !== -1) {

users[userIndex].name = newName;

res.send(`User ${userId} updated to ${newName}`);

} else {

res.status(404).send('User not found');

});

app.listen(port, () => {

console.log(`Server is running on http://localhost:${port}`);

});

Connection of two files:

data.js file, assuming it contains an array of users or orders that you might use in an Express.js
application for demonstration purposes. I'll create a basic data.js file with some sample data and then
show you how to use it in your Express.js routes.

data.js
// Sample data file containing users and orders

// Array of user objects

const users = [

{ id: 1, username: 'alice', email: '[email protected]' },

{ id: 2, username: 'bob', email: '[email protected]' },

{ id: 3, username: 'charlie', email: '[email protected]' }

];

// Array of order objects

const orders = [
 { id: 1, userId: 1, item: 'Laptop', quantity: 1 },

{ id: 2, userId: 2, item: 'Phone', quantity: 2 },

{ id: 3, userId: 3, item: 'Book', quantity: 3 }

];

module.exports = { users, orders };

server.js
Here's how you can set up an Express.js server to use the data from data.js:

const express = require('express');

const app = express();

const port = 3000;

// Import the sample data from data.js

const { users, orders } = require('./data');

// Middleware to parse JSON bodies

app.use(express.json());

// Route to get all users

app.get('/users', (req, res) => {

res.json(users);

});

// Route to get all orders

app.get('/orders', (req, res) => {

res.json(orders);

});

// Route to get a specific user by ID

app.get('/users/:id', (req, res) => {

const userId = parseInt(req.params.id, 10);

const user = users.find(u => u.id === userId);

if (user) {

res.json(user);

} else {

res.status(404).send('User not found');

});

// Route to get a specific order by ID

app.get('/orders/:id', (req, res) => {

const orderId = parseInt(req.params.id, 10);

const order = orders.find(o => o.id === orderId);

if (order) {

res.json(order);

} else {

res.status(404).send('Order not found');

});

// Route to create a new user

app.post('/users', (req, res) => {

const newUser = {

id: users.length + 1,

username: req.body.username,

email: req.body.email

};

users.push(newUser);
 res.status(201).json(newUser);

});

// Route to create a new order

app.post('/orders', (req, res) => {

const newOrder = {

id: orders.length + 1,

userId: req.body.userId,

item: req.body.item,

quantity: req.body.quantity

};

orders.push(newOrder);

res.status(201).json(newOrder);

});

// Route to update a user by ID

app.put('/users/:id', (req, res) => {

const userId = parseInt(req.params.id, 10);

const userIndex = users.findIndex(u => u.id === userId);

if (userIndex !== -1) {

users[userIndex] = {

id: userId,

username: req.body.username,

email: req.body.email

};

res.json(users[userIndex]);

} else {

res.status(404).send('User not found');

}
});

// Route to update an order by ID

app.put('/orders/:id', (req, res) => {

const orderId = parseInt(req.params.id, 10);

const orderIndex = orders.findIndex(o => o.id === orderId);

if (orderIndex !== -1) {

orders[orderIndex] = {

id: orderId,

userId: req.body.userId,

item: req.body.item,

quantity: req.body.quantity

};

res.json(orders[orderIndex]);

} else {

res.status(404).send('Order not found');

});

// Route to delete a user by ID

app.delete('/users/:id', (req, res) => {

const userId = parseInt(req.params.id, 10);

const userIndex = users.findIndex(u => u.id === userId);

if (userIndex !== -1) {

users.splice(userIndex, 1);

res.status(204).send();

} else {

res.status(404).send('User not found');

}
});

// Route to delete an order by ID

app.delete('/orders/:id', (req, res) => {

const orderId = parseInt(req.params.id, 10);

const orderIndex = orders.findIndex(o => o.id === orderId);

if (orderIndex !== -1) {

orders.splice(orderIndex, 1);

res.status(204).send();

} else {

res.status(404).send('Order not found');

});

app.listen(port, () => {

console.log(`Server is running on http://localhost:${port}`);

});

Instructions

Run the Server:

In the terminal, start your server by running:

node server.js
The server will start and listen on port 3000. You should see a message in the terminal: Server is running
on http://localhost:3000.
