GO and MongoDB

This project is a set API to perform CRUD operations on a MongoDB cluster using the Go Programming Language with JWT authorization.

Upload json dataset into database (movies.json)

mongoimport --uri mongodb+srv://<ROOT>:<PASSWORD>@<CLUSTER_NAME>.cmlur.mongodb.net/<DATABASE> --collection <COLLECTION> --type <FILETYPE> --file <FILENAME> --jsonArray

Run the project

Execute this command in your terminal:

go run main.go

You can use the GET, POST, PUT, DELETE methods to make requests to the localhost and perform the basic CRUD operations on your database Cluster.

Folder Structure

• handlers : Contains all the functions for handling the request made to the localhost.
• helper : Used to check the authentication of a user.
• models : Custom native stucts to store the data.
• utils : Utility fuunctions for database connection and other stuff.
• main.go : point of execution
• movies_data.json : dummy movies data used for this project.
