Introduction

This repository serves as an example of how to build a REST API using SvelteKit, a modern framework for building web applications. The project integrates several powerful tools and libraries, making it a great resource for developers looking to learn or enhance their skills in API development.

Technologies Used

• SvelteKit: A framework for building web applications with Svelte.
• LibSQL: A lightweight SQL library for handling database operations.
• Turso: A scalable database solution.
• Drizzle: An ORM for interacting with databases in a straightforward manner.
• Playwright: A tool for browser automation and testing.
• Paraglide: A library for managing asynchronous tasks in JavaScript.

   cd api-example
   

2. Install Dependencies: Make sure you have Node.js installed. Then run:

   npm install
   

3. Set Up the Database: Configure your database settings in the .env file. Ensure you have LibSQL and Turso set up correctly.

4. Run the Development Server: Start the server with:

   npm run dev
   

5. Access the API: Open your browser and navigate to http://localhost:3000/api.

• src/routes/api/index.js: This file contains the main API logic.
• src/lib/db.js: This file handles database connections and queries.
• src/tests/api.test.js: This file contains tests for the API endpoints.

API Endpoints

The API has several endpoints that you can interact with:

• GET /api: Retrieves a list of items.
• POST /api: Creates a new item.
• GET /api/:id: Retrieves a specific item by ID.
• PUT /api/:id: Updates an item by ID.
• DELETE /api/:id: Deletes an item by ID.

You can test these endpoints using tools like Postman or curl.

Testing

To ensure your API works as expected, you can run the tests included in the project. Use the following command:

npm test

This will execute the tests defined in src/tests/api.test.js. Make sure your server is running before executing the tests.
