# | API mixer |

Simple REST API mixer as a service. A minimal service will be deployed on your local port `8000`, all incoming data has to be sent by _POST_ fields (_e.g. [form-data](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2388), [x-www-form-urlencoded](https://www.w3.org/TR/html5/sec-forms.html#urlencoded-form-data)_). The output is a _application/json_ set.


### Launch the project

##### Prerequisites

You need `node` and `npm` installed.

##### 1. Install dependencies

Go into the project's folder and run :
```bash
$ npm i
```

##### 2. Transpile sources

Then launch the following command inside the project's folder :
```bash
$ npm run build
```

All source files of the `src/` folder will be transpiled into the `dist/` folder.

> It is also possible to watch the typescript while developping and modifying files with the command `npm run watch`.

##### 3. Launch server

> You need to have `node` installed.

Launch the server with the following command (inside the project's folder) :
```bash
$ node dist/main.js
```

Also, a shorthand is `npm start`.

##### 3. Test the API

Simply use [Postman](https://www.getpostman.com/) or whatever API client at `127.0.0.1:8000`.
