How to Create a Basic REST API with BUN & Authentication

#restapi

new JavaScript runtime concurrent of Node and Deno.

And I decided to make just a basic video.

And for documentation, you realize that it's easy to install and with a couple of commands we can add or create a project with a dependency like Express and create a basic REST API with a server and having also the basic wipe test that comes with basic package installation, so I'm on a Mac because actually is not available on Windows D.

They're struggling creating the Compatibility actually so Linux and Mac OS Today So yeah, let's copy this command and yeah.

I think that I have to, yeah, maybe restart my terminal.

And if we type bun, you can see that we can create and the shortcut for this is C so let's check what we have in this command we have a create and you have a next react app, BanBakery blank project.

This is what we're gonna use because Hono is a package that useful for creating basic like server express.

So as you can see, the creation was pretty fast.

This is our basic project and if I type npm run start We are on localhost and we have the hello world because this is what we have returned from from here actually.

We can also add maybe a test so let's the command that we'll use is bun-whip-test weptest and this is main.test .ts but we don't have anything inside here we can write a basic test just with...

So as you can see describe was well imported from bun test So my first test will have a function hit from button test.

So on the local host, Let's build a response.

So await app and the app will be our basic app.

We have a fetch here and a request because we have a basic request here on the localhost and want to expect that the response.status that the response.status to be

what I want to do here is to add another route

for using maybe a slash oath slash page and having a basic bearer token to add in the calling on this get route, and maybe pass a token with a client, like Postman, and check if we are authorized.

So my secret token app.use auth slash everything so on this route here So on this route here we want to use the better out this is import This is import bearerOath from HONA.

And pass the token So now on this route we will We will need this token, but we hard-coded here just for showing you how we can use this AppGet and it's very similar to what you have done until now with Express.

Auth page Specify parameter of c and return c.text you are authorized and yeah let's let's save this 1 and npm run start localhost so if we go now on auth page we have unauthorized.

So first of all we have the L award on the localhost auth page.

And authorize I want to use the authorization here.

Bearer token I think is my secret token you are authorized.

Change this 1, unauthorized, so this is the basic route using better auth from HONO and using this route for being authentic.

A cool thing would be to add you know ORM and database and decode the token when we insert in the database as we have done in other frameworks.

Thank you guys for watching and See you in the next tutorial.


Speaker 0: Hey guys, welcome back to another video. And in this video, we want to use BUN. This is a

Speaker 1: new JavaScript runtime concurrent of Node and Deno. And I decided to make just a basic video. And for documentation, you realize that it's easy to install and with a couple of commands we can add or create a project with a dependency like Express and create a basic REST API with a server and having also the basic wipe test that comes with basic package installation, so I'm on a Mac because actually is not available on Windows D. They're struggling creating the Compatibility actually so Linux and Mac OS Today So yeah, let's copy this command and yeah. Want to add the installation.

I think that I have to, yeah, maybe restart my terminal. And if we type bun, you can see that we can create and the shortcut for this is C so let's check what we have in this command we have a create and you have a next react app, BanBakery blank project. This is what we're gonna use because Hono is a package that useful for creating basic like server express. So as you can see, the creation was pretty fast. So what do we have here?

Let's check on, we have an index TS. This is our basic project and if I type npm run start We are on localhost and we have the hello world because this is what we have returned from from here actually. We can also add maybe a test so let's the command that we'll use is bun-whip-test weptest and this is main.test .ts but we don't have anything inside here we can write a basic test just with... So as you can see describe was well imported from bun test So my first test will have a function hit from button test. Return 200 response.

Button test So return

Speaker 0: 200

Speaker 1: Response So what we can here is request. This will be equal new request. New request. So on the local host, Let's build a response. So await app and the app will be our basic app.

Basic app. We have a fetch here and a request because we have a basic request here on the localhost and want to expect that the response.status that the response.status to be

Speaker 0: 200

Speaker 1: ok Now

Speaker 0: what I want to do here is to add another route

Speaker 1: for using maybe a slash oath slash page and having a basic bearer token to add in the calling on this get route, and maybe pass a token with a client, like Postman, and check if we are authorized. So, a big route. So, Let's just create a token here. It's very sick stuff. So my secret token app.use auth slash everything so on this route here So on this route here we want to use the better out this is import This is import bearerOath from HONA.

BearerOath. And pass the token So now on this route we will We will need this token, but we hard-coded here just for showing you how we can use this AppGet and it's very similar to what you have done until now with Express. Auth page Specify parameter of c and return c.text you are authorized and yeah let's let's save this 1 and npm run start localhost so if we go now on auth page we have unauthorized. We can do the same stuff here. So first of all we have the L award on the localhost auth page.

And authorize I want to use the authorization here. Bearer token I think is my secret token you are authorized. Change this 1, unauthorized, so this is the basic route using better auth from HONO and using this route for being authentic. A cool thing would be to add you know ORM and database and decode the token when we insert in the database as we have done in other frameworks.
