• Custom API endpoints to different TMDB links
• TV Show schema
• Person schema

Ensure you have Mongo installed on your machine.

Before running the API, ensure you have a .env file with the following variables:

NODE_ENV=development
PORT=8080
HOST=localhost
MONGO_DB=your_mongo_url
TMDB_KEY=your_tmdb_key
SECRET=your_jwt_secret

• Users
  • /api/users?=register | POST | Create a new user
  • /api/users?=authenticate | POST | Authenticate existing user
• Movies
  • /api/movies/:id | GET | Get details of specific movie
  • /api/movies/tmdb/upcoming | GET | Get list of upcoming movies
  • /api/movies/tmdb/top-rated | GET | Get list of top rated movies
• TV Shows & People
  • /api/tvshows/:id | GET | Get details of specific TV show
  • /api/tvshows/:id/season/:season | GET | Get details of a specific season of a specific TV show
  • /api/people/:id | GET | Get details of a specific person

A user can sign up or log in with a password that must be at least 8 characters long, inlcuding at least one number, letter, and special character. Upon logging in, a user is granted a JWT token. Some protected routes are inaccessible unless logged in.

Protected Routes:

• /movies/:id
• /tvshows/:id
• /tvshows/:id/season/:season
• /people/:id
• /movies/upcoming
• /movies/top-rated

To integrate the API into the React app, I first had to add a "Log In" or "Log Out" option to the site header. Following this, I began replacing existing API functions in api/tmdb-api.js with new functions that fetch from my own API in api/movies-api.js.

Pages that use Web API functions:

• addMovieReviewPage.js - getMovie
• favouriteMoviesPage.js - getMovie
• movieDetailsPage.js - getMovie
• peopleDetailsPage.js - getPerson
• topRatedMoviesPage.js - getTopRatedMovies
• tvSeasonDetailsPage.js - getTVSeason
• tvShowDetailsPage.js - getTVShow
• upcomingMoviesPage.js - getUpcomingMovies
