There’s a high chance you came across the term REST API if you’ve thought about getting data from a source on the internet, such as Facebook or Github. But what is a REST API? And more importantly, how can you build one. There are some more often used terms and technologies when building APIs such as Express, Node, Postman, and a CRUD API.
I'm here to show you how all of that works in practice so that you can build your own APIs. Let's dive right in!

Please help. Why is bodyParser automatically struck out when I type it in in Line 7 and the message says "bodyparser is deprecated."?????

@bhaveshchaudhari693 2 жыл бұрын

@@LindaLinda-ls2fd after version 4.16.0 bodyParser is deprecated and you can use express.json() instead of bodyParser.json() now... this is the official statement "The express.json() and express.urlencoded() middleware have been added to provide request body parsing support out-of-the-box. This uses the expressjs/body-parser module underneath, so apps that are currently requiring the module separately can switch to the built-in parsers."

Hello Adrian, Nice to meet you. Thanks for making an amazing youtube series. I am completely stuck on something in one of your videos. router.get("/", (req, res) => { console.log(users); //In the video you get this output in the browser, I get it in the vs code. res.send("Hello"); //I get this in the browser. }); No idea why. Your input would be very much appreciated. Thanks. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/op6Hg7p8ntO3ZYE.html

I want to take a minute & appreciate the quality knowledge he has delivered to the world. I have seen many videos on Rest APIs with NodeJS, But this is just outstanding. The English pronunciation was so clear that any non-native person can understand it. The flow of the video was in such a way that, I was understanding what is happening throughout the video. And one more thing - I started this video at 12 AM & It's 1:15 AM now. I didn't know how the time went by. What a great mentor. Looking forward to seeing such great content for all my javascript needs. Subscribed.😀

Has been, I think, 2 or 3 weeks ago that I started to learn node.js and express and I could followed along with your tutorial. Well explained, and one thing I noticed in the beginning it's that you typed the parameter or something you would do but secs later you delete it explaining why. It's a awesome thing to do 'cause I watched and did at the same time and that really got into my thinking process. Thanks for sharing this class with all of us !! Peace !
