GE Risk GameBoard - Setup API Server

Welcome to GE Risk MVP - Setup API Server contest. As part of this contest, you need to create a simple API server with a MySQL database.

 

Contest Details

The requirements are really simple. Create an API server using MySQL (Community Server v5.7) and Nodejs (v6).

 

The models, schema and endpoints expected are provided in a document in the contest forums.

 

Points To Note

1. Currently, the user model does not have any password because we intend to use OpenID Connect later. It’s not in scope for the current contest

2. Ensure that you use correct HTTP status codes in your responses

3. Secure the API using an API key that can be configured. All endpoints need to be protected using an API key.

Final Submission Guidelines

Submit a zip file of your submission. Submit an unlisted video link though. Instead of video, kindly submit a POSTMAN collection. No tests are needed.
