Study Notes
Client-Side Frameworks
- Client-side frameworks execute in the browser enhancing user interfaces and enabling animated features.
- Popular client-side frameworks include AngularJS, EmberJS, VueJS, and ReactJS.
- All client-side frameworks listed use JavaScript as their programming language.
Express Framework
- Express provides a minimal interface to build applications, using Node.js as its foundation.
- Express offers flexibility through numerous modules available on npm, which can be easily integrated.
- Express is commonly used for:
- Single-page applications (SPAs)
- Mobile applications
- RESTful APIs
- Server-side rendering
- Real-time applications
- Microservices
Key Features of Express JS
- Routing: Express simplifies mapping HTTP requests to specific functions using the following process:
- The
req
object represents the HTTP request, providing information such as query string, parameters, body, headers, etc. - The
res
object represents the HTTP response, enabling the application to send back data. -
res.send()
function sends data to the requesting client.
- The
Routing, Middleware, Templating
- Web frameworks manage resources such as HTML pages, scripts, and images, using routes to access them.
- Routing in Express is defined by methods like
app.get()
,app.post()
,app.put()
,app.delete()
, andapp.all()
. - The general structure for setting routes is:
-
app.method(path, handler)
-
method
refers to the HTTP verb (GET, POST, PUT, DELETE) -
path
is the route -
handler
is a callback function executed when a matching request type occurs on the route.
-
- Express offers
app.all()
to handle all HTTP methods on a specific route. - For modular organization, Express.Router enables separation of routes within separate files.
- Middleware functions provide access to the
req
,res
, andnext
middleware function in the request-response cycle. - Middleware allows for:
- Execution of code
- Making modifications to the
req
andres
objects - Terminating the request-response cycle
- Calling the next middleware function in the stack.
HTTP Method and RESTful APIs
- HTTP methods specify the operation requested by the client:
- GET: Requests a representation of the resource.
- POST: Requests the server to accept data as a new object/entity.
- PUT: Requests the server to update or create an existing object.
- DELETE: Requests the server to delete the specified resource.
- RESTful APIs structure data and communication using uniform standards:
- URIs and HTTP methods provide a comprehensive overview of the request.
- POST routes are utilized for creating new data.
- GET routes are used to retrieve data.
- PUT routes allow for modifying existing data.
- DELETE routes remove data.
