RestAPI Template - Spring Boot + MongoDB

Desciption

A ready-to-use Template for Rest API using spring-boot-microservices, MongoDB as Database, Integrated with codecov and sonarqube, deployable to cloud. This template can be plugged into any application to kickstart task easily without writing everything from scratch.

Task List Progress

• Rest controllers and models using SpringBoot
• MongoDB configuration
• TravisCI build
• SonarQube integration
• Jacoco Test report
• JWT authentication
• 80% and above Code Coverage (using codecov or coveralls)
• Cloud deployment

Getting Started

• Import this project into your favourite IDE after fork and checkout of this repository.

Pre-requisite and Installing Steps

• Get a running instance of MongoDB that you can connect to. For more information on getting started with MongoDB, visit their online tutorial.

• Start by creating a test database. I will call mine “rest_tutorial” using the following command in the MongoDB shell, or through a database manager like MongoDB Compass: use rest_tutorial;

• Create a sample collection that will hold data about different types of pets. Let’s create the collection with the following command: db.createCollection("pets");

• Once the collection is created, we need to add some data! We can add data to the collection with the below query, you can add any number of data like this : db.pets.insertMany([ { "name" : "Spot", "species" : "dog", "breed" : "pitbull" }, { "name" : "Daisy", "species" : "cat", "breed" : "calico" }, { "name" : "Bella", "species" : "dog", "breed" : "australian shepard" } ]);

• Add the mongodb authentication-database, username & password in application.properties If there is no authentication when you are running locally then you can also remove these properties from this file.

• Create the user roles in the database. The user roles can be one of “USER, MODERATOR or ADMIN”

  db.roles.insertMany([
   { name: "ROLE_USER" },
   { name: "ROLE_MODERATOR" },
   { name: "ROLE_ADMIN" },
  ])
  

Running the tests

Once the server starts, your first need to register a user and login as that user to get a token.\

user registration

User login

Once you get the token, you need to pass that token for every request you make to the backend In the postman, select the “header” section and enter Authorization for the key and
“Bearer " for the value

you are free to test your API however you choose. Use postman for the below tests :

getAllPets

getPetById

createPet

deletePet

modifyPetById

Once done with all the testing, you can logout using the endpoint /api/auth/logout

logout

Code Coverage

For code coverage reports integration, I have shown example using Codecov and Coveralls as both are pretty popular and easy to integrate with the travis.

• Codecov - Just add this line in the .travis.yml which will send the jacoco report to the codecov console

• Coveralls - Need to add coveralls plugin and jacoco report path in the build.gradle file. Also need change in .travis.yml instead of codecov to use coveralls
