Hey everyone! In this article, I will provide an overview of the endpoints and domain models involved in building an API.
First, let’s take a look at the endpoints. We have several endpoints that serve different purposes. In our authentication controller, we have the registration endpoint for user registration and the login endpoint for user login. These endpoints allow us to authenticate and authorize users for accessing certain functionalities.
Moving on to the books endpoint, we have an endpoint to retrieve the top books. The requirements for determining what is considered a top book will be discussed in detail. Additionally, we have an endpoint to retrieve a single book by its ID. These endpoints are accessible to both registered and non-registered users.
Next, let’s talk about the orders endpoint. To access this endpoint, users need to be logged in. This endpoint allows users to check their orders and place new orders for purchasing books.
Lastly, we have the reviews endpoint. Users can retrieve all the reviews for a specific book by passing the book’s ID. They can also view their own reviews and post new reviews. Additionally, users have the option to delete their posted reviews.
Now, let’s move on to the domain models. We have several domain models that represent different entities in our application. These include the book, order, detail, review, and user models.
In addition to the domain models, we also have DTOs (Data Transfer Objects) that are used for data exchange between the client and server. The DTOs we will be using are the login DTO, order DTO, detailed ETO, register DTO, and review DTO.
It’s important to note that the code generated by GPT-4 is not deterministic and may vary based on the prompt and constraints provided. In the next video, I will provide a prompt generated by GPT-4 and discuss its usefulness and limitations.
In conclusion, this article has provided an overview of the endpoints and domain models involved in building an API. We have discussed the purpose of each endpoint and the models used in our application. Stay tuned for the next video where we will dive deeper into the implementation details. Remember, the goal is to maximize productivity by using the right tools and approaches.
