    Good stuff! Just one thing - you skipped creating MySQL DB server but understandable if it would've taken a while to explain that as well. For those who have docker you can run the following 3 commands to run a mysql DB image:
    docker pull mysql
    docker network create my-net
    docker run -it --network my-net -p 3306:3306 --name mysql -e MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD=password -d mysql

      Yes! I pinned you in case someone wants to know this. Tbh I was in doubt on if I should have shown the implementation of a DB or not due to time. I chose to do so at the end but it came with the cost of not explaining everything thoroughly. THank you for posting this!

    Quick Tips:
    Dunno if someone already mentioned these but...
    1) You can bypass having to press Enter for all the prompts/questions you're asked when you do "npm init", if you do "npm init -y" instead. The -y flag means "say yes to everything."
    2) If the server your running is set up in the default file or the entry point (to check what the entry point is just look at the value assigned to the key "main" in your package.json file) you could just do "node ." . The dot at the end just means to run default file in the current directory.
    Great video by the way Pedro, learned a lot!

    First of all, thank you for this great tutorials, it's a wonderfull experience to see how you teach:). It would be awesome for us, your suscribers to see you teaching us building a rest api, with react, node, mysql and using multiple tables to the see the associations taking place like one to many, many to many..or Join (INNER, OUTER, LEFT, RIGHT, etc..) tables based on id. Thank you once more and keep the good work!

    Man what are the odds? I just wanted to learn Restful API and here you are.
    I was so confused about the "stateless" in Restful and I searched online that using Json Web Token(JWT) for authentication is a stateless operation.
    I just followed your previous video about it but is that a Restful stateless example?
    Thank you Pedro for the tutorials!

    • @PedroTechnologies
      @PedroTechnologies  3 роки тому +1

      Awesome! By stateless it menas that the backend shouldn't keep track of the state of the client. Meaning that if a user signs in with a JWT, then the client has to store the token. THe server must receive the token from the client and validate it.

    Pedro, 2 weeks ago you saved my university project with your React-Node CRUD tutorial. So thank you for that, too!
    I have a question. I would like to make an image gallery CRUD with image files and data like the picture's name, description, date etc. ) And I would like to make it with React, Node.Js (express) and mySQL, but I don't really find a tutorial with this combination.
    Maybe can I ask you to make a video about an image CRUD like this? If so, I would be the first one to watch it. Also I recommended your tutorials to my classmates and friends! 😊
    (you explain better than some of my teachers haha)

    33:00 couldn't you of used the npm package uuid then added some logic to the post request and put request? like const newUser = req.body then do if newUser._id === " " then you would just do newUser._id = uuidv4() which would auto generate you a id if the key: value is empty. You could of also added more logic for if the !newUser._id meaning if there isn't a _id in the request then you could throw an error saying add the _id key with an empy value string to have it auto generate.
