EzBackend - The Server

Overview

The EzBackend is the root EzApp. All other EzApps should be children of the EzBackend, and there should be only one EzBackend per application. A sample meetup app may look something like:

Recommended Setup

We recommend following the instructions in Getting Started

Which creates the following boilerplate

Sample

const app = new EzBackend();

//---Plugins---
app.addApp(new EzOpenAPI());
app.addApp(new EzDbUI());
app.addApp(new EzCors());
//---Plugins---

app.start();

Full Sample

import { EzBackend } from "@ezbackend/common";
import { EzOpenAPI } from "@ezbackend/openapi";
import { EzDbUI } from "@ezbackend/db-ui";
import { EzCors } from "@ezbackend/cors";

const app = new EzBackend();

//---Plugins---
app.addApp(new EzOpenAPI());
app.addApp(new EzDbUI());
app.addApp(new EzCors());
//---Plugins---

app.start();

This basic boilerplate comes with three plugins to aid development

Plugin	Description	Notes
	An all in one interface for 1. Looking at your API endpoints 2. Managing your database 3. Testing your API endpoints	Requires EzOpenAPI plugin to be used as well
	Automatically generates documentation for your backend
	Plugin for managing CORS, by default accepts requests from anywhere	Make sure to change cors settings before deployment

Barebones

If you just want a barebones application, you can use the following

import { EzBackend } from "@ezbackend/common";

const app = new EzBackend();

app.start();

caution

However, this barebones application does not have alot of the functionality that EzBackend provides to make your life easier.
