Pratilipi-REST-API

---

DEPLOY LOCALLY

Following are some steps to run this Rest API locally, using your local MongoDB:

1. Initialize all the dependencies first by doing npm i
2. Make sure MongoDB is pre-installed on your local system. Create a local database named as pratilipi. Inside that DB, create a new user with user test and pwd test123 with readwrite and dbAdmin role access.
3. Install Nodemon globally for running the API or simply use node(as you wish).
4. Once all this is done, simply run nodemon server/server.js in the root directory.
5. The REST API can now successfully be seen running at Port 3000
