Develop An Express Web Application That Can Interact With REST API To Perform CRUD Operations On S

The document outlines the steps to develop an Express web application that interacts with a REST API for CRUD operations on student data using SQLite. It includes instructions for setting up the project, installing necessary packages, and creating the main application and database files. The application features endpoints for creating, reading, updating, and deleting student records, along with a basic server setup.

Develop an express web application that can interact with REST


API to perform CRUD operations on student data. (Use Postman)

Solution :

 Firstly we need to create a new folder and open the folder in the command
prompt and enter a command as below:

 npm init -y

 Open that folder in the vscode by entering code.


 Next in the terminal we need to install all the packages we need, so we mainly
use express and sqlite3.
 The Command to install express and sqlite3 is

 npm install express sqlite3

Then create file named as the app.js and db.js

package.js

{
"name": "10",
"version": "1.0.0",
"main": "index.js",
"scripts": {
"start": "node app.js",
"test": "echo \"Error: no test specified\" && exit 1"
},
"keywords": [],
"author": "",
"license": "ISC",
"description": "",
"dependencies": {
"express": "^5.1.0",
"sqlite3": "^5.1.7"
}
}
db.js
const sqlite3 = require('sqlite3').verbose();
// Function to initialize the database schema
function initializeDatabase() {
const db = new sqlite3.Database('./mydatabase.db', (err) => {
if (err) {
console.error(err.message);
} else {
console.log('Connected to the SQLite database.');
createStudentsTable(db);
}
});

// Close the database connection when the Node process exits


process.on('exit', () => {
db.close((err) => {
if (err) {
console.error(err.message);
} else {
console.log('Disconnected from the SQLite database.');
}
});
});
}
// Function to create the 'students' table if it doesn't exist
function createStudentsTable(db) {
const createTableQuery = `
CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS students (
id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY AUTOINCREMENT,
name TEXT,
age INTEGER,
grade TEXT
);
`;
db.run(createTableQuery, (err) => {
if (err) {
console.error(err.message);
} else {
console.log('The students table has been created or already
exists.');
}
});
}
module.exports = { initializeDatabase };
app.js
const express = require('express');
const sqlite3 = require('sqlite3');
const{ initializeDatabase } = require('./db');
const app = express();
const port = 3000;

// Initialize the database and create tables


initializeDatabase();

// Connect to SQLite database


const db = new sqlite3.Database('./mydatabase.db', (err) => {
if (err) {
console.log(err.message);
} else {
console.log('Connected to the SQLite database.');
}
});

// Middleware to parse request body as JSON


app.use(express.json());

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


res.send('Welcome to the Student');
});

// Get all Students


app.get('/students', (req, res) => {
db.all('SELECT * FROM students', [], (err, rows) => {
if (err) {
return console.error(err.message);
}
res.json(rows);
});
});

// Get a single student by id


app.get('/students/:id', (req, res) => {
const id = req.params.id;
db.all('SELECT * FROM students WHERE id = ?', [id], (err, row) => {
if (err) {
return console.error(err.message);
}
res.json(row);
});
});

// Create a new student


app.post('/students', (req, res) => {
const{ name, age, grade } = req.body;
db.run('INSERT INTO students (name, age, grade) VALUES (?, ?, ?)', [name,
age, grade], function (err) {
if (err) {
return console.error(err.message);
}
res.status(201).json({ id:this.lastID });
});
});

// Update a student
app.put('/students/:id', (req, res) => {
const id = req.params.id;
const{ name, age, grade } = req.body;
db.run('UPDATE students SET name = ?, age = ?, grade = ? WHERE id = ?',
[name, age, grade, id], function (err) {
if (err) {
return console.error(err.message);
}
res.json({ updatedID:id });
});
});

// Delete a student
app.delete('/students/:id', (req, res) => {
const id = req.params.id;
db.run('DELETE FROM students WHERE id = ?', id, function (err) {
if (err) {
return console.error(err.message);
}
res.json({ deletedID:id });
});
});

app.listen(port, () => {
console.log(`Server running at http://localhost:${port}`);
});
