Implement server

[yulsmir]

Implement server using express module

• GET /todos ---> List all todos
• GET /todos?11. ----> List only single todo 1 in this case is just example of id but it should work with any id stored
• POST /todos ---> create new todo
• PATCH /todos/1 ---> update existing todo using the id
• DELETE /todos?1 ---> removes existing todo using the id

I would also live a comment what to do:

• add unique id creation.

Done.

It always best to rely on standard modules if possible i.e modules you get from nodejs in this case. Node has this inbuilt https://nodejs.org/api/crypto.html#cryptorandomuuidoptions

const { randomUUID } = require('crypto');;
Then use randomUUID() to generate random uuid.

This restrict todo to Title and random id... what if user wants to save their own todo ?
You should capture the values for create Todo from req.body. So if call endpoint
POST /todos and send something like { title: 'I am learning express and nodejs' } ... that sould be persisted.

Also since first time you create todo... its obvious its not completed and id should be auto generated coz users do not care about that,...they just provide title of todo and done.
so when create todo... using the https://github.com/yulsmir/todo-express-api/pull/1/files#r1209546591, you could have body of request to be like

{ id: randomUUID(), title: req.body.title, completed: false }

Then you won't need this part const newId = Math.max(...todos.map((todo) => todo.id)) + 1;
