not-loopback

This project is using loopback4 or loopback-next, long with typeorm. The mission is to get rid of repositories (Now you can do model.save(), don't judge me for that; it was seriously a pain to create repository for every model). Below is what this project does.

Features

• No need to use loopback's default orm. It is using typeorm.
• No need to create repository for models. Models extended from BaseEntity will have .save() function with them; both for create and update.
• This gives you user management and auth support.
• Account controller takes care of registration and login.
• Check me-controller & role-capability-controller to find how auth works.
• You need to specify the capability to each authable rest api.
• One role has multiple capabilities. Check role_capability_mapping table.
• One user can have multiple roles. Check user_role_mapping table.

How to install

• Clone it.
• In datasources folder provide your datasource details. All Models are by default linked with default datasource which is given in config.json file.
• config.json also has a api prefix url as apiBasePath.
• You can also explicitly mention a different datasource for any individual model.
• Run script/scaffold/entities.sql in your db. If you are not using postgres, modify the query as per your database query language.
• You can also run src/migrations/role-capability-migration.ts to initiate roles and capabilities as per src/core/authentication/roles-enum.ts. You can modify the enums Role and Capability if you want. Otherwise create new any time with apis of role-capability-controller.
• Run npm install.
• Run npm start.
• You should be able to access localhost:3000 and localhost:3000/explorer.
