Welcome, here you are going to find details about the API, how to use it. Lets begin!.
This is an API where you can store movies that are published in TheMovieDB.
Once the movies are stored in our DB, you can easily search and filter the movies.
First of all, this app was created with Ruby 2.6.4 and Rails 6.0.2.1. We use Postgresql as DB so get that ready before anything, also, we use Node 10.14.1.
After you have cloned the project, go inside the folder and run bundle install, then rails db:create db:migrate db:seed.
Once done, you can start the server with rails s
Before you start using the API, you should know how the requests works here:
First, we use the credentials introduced in Rails 5.2, so you need to have locally a master.key and a credentials.yml, so run rails credentials:edit and add the following tokens:
| name | token |
|---|---|
app_token |
SMeKKF2QT4fwpMeJf36POk6yJV_adQssw5c |
moviedb_api_key |
5517d20e44bcd2f06c1e1b4f3d986c8b |
That should be enough, for more info you can read here: Crendentials
In frontend we have the token hardcoded in a class, I know that is not pretty but I didn't have time to stored in a different way.
You have to send a header like X-Api-Key: SMeKKF2QT4fwpMeJf36POk6yJV_adQssw5c always with each request you do to the server.
