Logs API

What is this?

This is an example of building a NodeJS Rest API to access to logs which are stored in elasticsearch.

I used elasticsearch v2.2.

You can configure where elasticsearch is in config/default.json, by default it will use http://localhost:9200.

You can go to Auth0 to create it. After that set these environment variables (only to run it, you don't need this for testing):

AUTH0_CLIENT_ID=myAppClientId
AUTH0_CLIENT_SECRET=myAppClientSecret

You can run the tests executing: npm test, keep in mind this uses that elasticsearch instance as well, but a different index.

To run the API server: npm start, the server will run in http://localhost:3000

You can see the API documentation here: http://docs.logseduardods.apiary.io

API using express
Authorization using expres-jwt
Express-validator to check the format of some query parameters
Winston and Morgan for logging
Script to create index & mapping in elasticsearch (if needed) when you execute tests or run the server. It is executed automatically on pretest and prestart phases.
Script to populate database scripts/create-es-content.js, you need to have set the AUTH0_CLIENT_ID environment variable previously before you run it
