Description

In the world of web development, leveraging data is the key to developing comprehensive applications, and RESTful APIs help you to achieve this systematically. This book will guide you in designing and developing web services with the power of TypeScript 3 and Node.js. You'll design REST APIs using best practices for request handling, validation, authentication, and authorization. You'll also understand how to enhance the capabilities of your APIs with ODMs, databases, models and views, as well as asynchronous callbacks. This book will guide you in securing your environment by testing your services and initiating test automation with different testing approaches. Furthermore, you'll get to grips with developing secure, testable, and more efficient code, and be able to scale and deploy TypeScript 3 and Node.js-powered RESTful APIs on cloud platforms such as the Google Cloud Platform. Finally, the book will help you explore microservices and give you an overview of what GraphQL can allow you to do. By the end of this book, you will be able to use RESTful web services to create your APIs for mobile and web apps and other platforms.

Who is this book for?

If you’re a developer who has a basic understanding of REST concepts and want to learn how to design and develop RESTful APIs, this book is for you. Prior knowledge of TypeScript will help you make the most out of this book.

What you will learn

  • Explore various methods to plan your services in a scalable way
  • Understand how to handle different request types and the response status code
  • Get to grips with securing web services
  • Delve into error handling and logging your web services for improved debugging
  • Uncover the microservices architecture and GraphQL
  • Create automated CI/CD pipelines for release and deployment strategies

Shorter review with better rating:- Book tries too hard to cover everything, a lot of work probably went into it though.- Object Oriented features that make TS powerful in developing Web Services (or anything) are kind of missing.- As a result it feels like TS is merely used as JS with base-types checking.- Examples could use a revision with some real Object Oriented Programming and OO Design Patterns.

I'm a Java veteran interested in understanding better the modern JS web development world. I really like the topic and the hands-on approach that the author chooses to explain modern RESTful API programming. However, the eBook is so full of errors, it doesn't deserve more than 2 stars. Please spend some time and re-visit the code examples in the book and fix them.At least the git repository that contains all code from the book seems to to be tested and has running examples.
