Part-6 | NestJS(v9) | ReactJS(v18) | MongoDB | CRUD Example

The main objectives of this article are:
  • Create A HTTP Delete Endpoint In NestJS App.
  • Consume The Delete Endpoint in ReactJS App.

Create A HTTP Delete Endpoint In NestJS App:

Let's implement the HTTP Delete Endpoint in the NestJS Application.

Let's implement the delete operation logic in 'EmployeeService'.
NestJS_App/src/employee/employee.service.ts:
async delete(id: string) {
  await this.employeeModel.findByIdAndRemove(id);
}
  • Here 'findByIdAndRemove()' method deletes the document from the MongoDB collection.
Let's add the HTTP Delete endpoint in our 'EmployeeController'.
NestJS_App/src/employee/employee.controller.ts:
import { Body, Controller, Delete, Get, Param, Post, Put } from '@nestjs/common';
import { EmployeeService } from './employee.service';
import { Employee } from './schema/employee-schema';

@Controller('employee')
export class EmployeeController {
  constructor(private employeeService: EmployeeService) {}

  @Delete('/:id')
  async delete(@Param('id') id:string){
    await this.employeeService.delete(id);
  }
}
  • Here '@Delete' decorator makes our method executes only for the HTTP delete request.

Create React Component 'DeleteConfirmation':

Let's create a new React component like 'DeleteConfirmation'. This is not going to be a page component, but it will be a shared component so that anywhere we can use this 'DeleteConfirmation' component so crate this component in 'components/shared folder'.
ReactJS_App/src/components/shared/DeleteConfirmation.js:
import Button from "react-bootstrap/Button";
import Modal from "react-bootstrap/Modal";

const DeleteConfirmation = (props) => {
  return (
    <>
      <Modal
        show={props.showModal}
        onHide={() => {
          props.closeDeleteModalHandler();
        }}
      >
        <Modal.Header closeButton>
          <Modal.Title>{props.title}</Modal.Title>
        </Modal.Header>
        <Modal.Body>{props.body}</Modal.Body>
        <Modal.Footer>
          <Button
            variant="secondary"
            onClick={() => {
              props.closeDeleteModalHandler();
            }}
          >
            Close
          </Button>
          <Button
            variant="danger"
            onClick={() => {
              props.confirmDeleteHandler();
            }}
          >
            Confirm Delete
          </Button>
        </Modal.Footer>
      </Modal>
    </>
  );
};
export default DeleteConfirmation;
  • Here 'DeleteConfirmation' component contains react-bootstrap modal code.
  • (Line: 8) The 'show' is the boolean property of the 'Modal' component. The parent component passes its value through 'props.showModal'(here showModal is our custom property name which must be passed by the parent component and its value should be boolean). So if 'show' property receives 'true' then opens the modal.
  • (Line: 9-11) The 'onHide' get triggered by the 'X'(close button) on the right-top corner of the modal. Here 'onHide' register with an arrow function which internally calls a method of the parent component like 'props.closeDeleteModalHandler'.
  • (Line: 14) Dynamic 'props.title' property for the modal title.
  • (Line: 16) Dynamic 'props.body' property fo the modal body.
  • (Line: 18-25)Close button click event to register with arrow function which internally calls a method of parents component like 'props.CloseDeleteModalHandler'.
  • (Line: 26-33) Confirm delete button, click event register with arrow function which internally calls a method of parents component like 'props.confirmDeleteHandler'.

Invoke 'DeleteConfirmation' From 'AllEmployees' Component(Delete Operation):

Let's add the 'DeleteConfirmation' element into the 'AllEmployees' component so that whenever we click on the delete button 'DeleteConfirmation' modal will open.
ReactJS_App/src/pages/AllEmployees.js:
import { useEffect, useState } from "react";
import { Container, Table, Row, Col, Button } from "react-bootstrap";
import axios from "axios";
import { useNavigate } from "react-router-dom";
import DeleteConfirmation from "../components/shared/DeleteConfirmation";

const AllEmployees = () => {
  const [employees, setEmployees] = useState([]);
  const navigate = useNavigate();
  const [showModal, setShowModal] = useState(false);
  const [itemIdToDelete, setItemIdToDelete] = useState(0);

  useEffect(() => {
    axios.get("http://localhost:4000/employee").then((response) => {
      setEmployees(response.data);
    });
  },[]);

  const openDeleteModalHandler = (id) => {
    setItemIdToDelete(id);
    setShowModal(true);
  };

  const closeDeleteModalHandler = () => {
    setItemIdToDelete(0);
    setShowModal(false);
  };

  const confirmDeleteHandler = () => {
    axios
      .delete(`http://localhost:4000/employee/${itemIdToDelete}`)
      .then(() => {
        setEmployees((existingData) => {
          return existingData.filter((_) => _._id !== itemIdToDelete);
        });
        setItemIdToDelete(0);
        setShowModal(false);
      });
  };

  return (
    <>
      <DeleteConfirmation
        title="Delete Confimation!"
        body="Are sure to delete this item"
        showModal={showModal}
        closeDeleteModalHandler={closeDeleteModalHandler}
        confirmDeleteHandler={confirmDeleteHandler}
      ></DeleteConfirmation>
      <Container className="mt-2">
        <Row>
          <Col className="col-md-4 offset-md-4">
            <Button
              variant="primary"
              type="button"
              onClick={() => navigate("/add-employee")}
            >
              Add
            </Button>
          </Col>
        </Row>
        <Table striped bordered hover>
          <thead>
            <tr>
              <th>Name</th>
              <th>Job Role</th>
              <th>Experience</th>
              <th>Actions</th>
            </tr>
          </thead>
          <tbody>
            {employees.map((emp) => (
              <tr key={emp._id}>
                <td>{emp.name}</td>
                <td>{emp.role}</td>
                <td>{emp.experience}</td>
                <td>
                  <Button

                    onClick={() => {
                      navigate(`/edit-employee/${emp._id}`);
                    }}
                  >
                    Edit
                  </Button>{" "}
                  |
                  <Button
                    variant="danger"
                    type="button"
                    onClick={() => {
                      openDeleteModalHandler(emp._id);
                    }}
                  >
                    Delete
                  </Button>
                </td>
              </tr>
            ))}
          </tbody>
        </Table>
      </Container>
    </>
  );
};
export default AllEmployees;
  • (Line: 10) The 'showModal' & 'setShowModal' are useState variables used to show and hide the Modal
  • (Line: 11) The 'itemToDeleteId' & 'setItemToDeleteId' are useState variables used to maintain 'id' of the record need to be deleted.
  • (Line: 19-22) The function 'openDeleteModalHandler' will invoke by the delete button. It contains logic like 'setShowModal' to true which opens the delete confirmation modal and  'setItemToDelteId' contains the record to be deleted
  • (Line: 24-27) The function 'closeDeleteModalHandler' will invoke by the 'cancel' button on modal. It contains logic like 'setShowModal' to false which closes the modal and 'setItemToDeleteId' reset to value '0'.
  • (Line: 29-39) The function 'confirmDeleteHandler' logic invokes the delete API call. After API success we are updating a few 'useState' variables. The 'setShowModal' is assigned to false to close the modal. The 'setEmployees' update to remove the deleted item from its array. The 'setItemToDeleteId' value reset to '0'
  • (Line: 43-49) Rendered the 'DeleteConfirmation' component element with all required props
  • (Line: 88-96) The 'Delete' button clicks the event registered with the arrow function it internally invoke the 'openDeleteModalHandler' by inputting the 'id' of the item to delete.

Angular 14 Reactive Forms Example

In this article, we will explore the Angular(14) reactive forms with an example. Reactive Forms: Angular reactive forms support model-driven techniques to handle the form's input values. The reactive forms state is immutable, any form filed change creates a new state for the form. Reactive forms are built around observable streams, where form inputs and values are provided as streams of input values, which can be accessed synchronously. Some key notations that involve in reactive forms are like: FormControl - each input element in the form is 'FormControl'. The 'FormControl' tracks the value and validation status of form fields. FormGroup - Track the value and validate the state of the group of 'FormControl'. FormBuilder - Angular service which can be used to create the 'FormGroup' or FormControl instance quickly. Form Array - That can hold infinite form control, this helps to create dynamic forms. Create An Angular(14) Application: Let'

.NET 7 Web API CRUD Using Entity Framework Core

In this article, we are going to implement a sample .NET 7 Web API CRUD using the Entity Framework Core. Web API: Web API is a framework for building HTTP services that can be accessed from any client like browser, mobile devices, and desktop apps. In simple terminology API(Application Programming Interface) means an interface module that contains programming functions that can be requested via HTTP calls either to fetch or update data for their respective clients. Some of the Key Characteristics of API: Supports HTTP verbs like 'GET', 'POST', 'PUT', 'DELETE', etc. Supports default responses like 'XML' and 'JSON'. Also can define custom responses. Supports self-hosting or individual hosting, so that all different kinds of apps can consume it. Authentication and Authorization are easy to implement. The ideal platform to build the REST full services. Install The SQL Server And SQL Management Studio: Let's install the SQL server on our l

ReactJS(v18) JWT Authentication Using HTTP Only Cookie

In this article, we will implement the ReactJS application authentication using the HTTP-only cookie. HTTP Only Cookie: In a SPA(Single Page Application) Authentication JWT token either can be stored in browser 'LocalStorage' or in 'Cookie'. Storing the JWT token inside of the cookie then the cookie should be HTTP Only. The HTTP-ONly cookie nature is that it will be only accessible by the server application. Client apps like javascript-based apps can't access the HTTP-Only cookie. So if we use the authentication with HTTP-only JWT cookie then we no need to implement the custom logic like adding authorization header or storing token data, etc at our client application. Because once the user authenticated cookie will be automatically sent to the server by the browser on every API call. Authentication API: To authenticate our client application with JWT HTTP-only cookie, I developed a NetJS(which is a node) Mock API. Check the GitHub link and read the document on G

Angular 14 State Management CRUD Example With NgRx(14)

In this article, we are going to implement the Angular(14) state management CRUD example with NgRx(14) NgRx Store For State Management: In an angular application to share consistent data between multiple components, we use NgRx state management. Using NgRx state helps to avoid unwanted API calls, easy to maintain consistent data, etc. The main building blocks for the NgRx store are: Actions - NgRx actions represents event to trigger the reducers to save the data into the stores. Reducer - Reducer's pure function, which is used to create a new state on data change. Store - The store is the model or entity that holds the data. Selector - Selector to fetch the slices of data from the store to angular components. Effects - Effects deals with external network calls like API. The effect gets executed based the action performed Ngrx State Management flow: The angular component needs data for binding.  So angular component calls an action that is responsible for invoking the API call.  Aft

Angular 14 Crud Example

In this article, we will implement CRUD operation in the Angular 14 application. Angular: Angular is a framework that can be used to build a single-page application. Angular applications are built with components that make our code simple and clean. Angular components compose of 3 files like TypeScript File(*.ts), Html File(*.html), CSS File(*.cs) Components typescript file and HTML file support 2-way binding which means data flow is bi-directional Component typescript file listens for all HTML events from the HTML file. Create Angular(14) Application: Let's create an Angular(14) application to begin our sample. Make sure to install the Angular CLI tool into our local machine because it provides easy CLI commands to play with the angular application. Command To Install Angular CLI npm install -g @angular/cli Run the below command to create the angular application. Command To Create Angular Application ng new name_of_your_app Note: While creating the app, you will see a noti

Unit Testing Asp.NetCore Web API Using xUnit[.NET6]

In this article, we are going to write test cases to an Asp.NetCore Web API(.NET6) application using the xUnit. xUnit For .NET: The xUnit for .Net is a free, open-source, community-focused unit testing tool for .NET applications. By default .Net also provides a xUnit project template to implement test cases. Unit test cases build upon the 'AAA' formula that means 'Arrange', 'Act' and 'Assert' Arrange - Declaring variables, objects, instantiating mocks, etc. Act - Calling or invoking the method that needs to be tested. Assert - The assert ensures that code behaves as expected means yielding expected output. Create An API And Unit Test Projects: Let's create a .Net6 Web API and xUnit sample applications to accomplish our demo. We can use either Visual Studio 2022 or Visual Studio Code(using .NET CLI commands) to create any.Net6 application. For this demo, I'm using the 'Visual Studio Code'(using the .NET CLI command) editor. Create a fo

Part-1 Angular JWT Authentication Using HTTP Only Cookie[Angular V13]

In this article, we are going to implement a sample angular application authentication using HTTP only cookie that contains a JWT token. HTTP Only JWT Cookie: In a SPA(Single Page Application) Authentication JWT token either can be stored in browser 'LocalStorage' or in 'Cookie'. Storing JWT token inside of the cookie then the cookie should be HTTP Only. The HTTP-Only cookie nature is that it will be only accessible by the server application. Client apps like javascript-based apps can't access the HTTP-Only cookie. So if we use authentication with HTTP only JWT cookie then we no need to implement custom logic like adding authorization header or storing token data, etc at our client application. Because once the user authenticated cookie will be automatically sent to the server by the browser on every API call. Authentication API: To implement JWT cookie authentication we need to set up an API. For that, I had created a mock authentication API(Using the NestJS Se

ReactJS(v18) Authentication With JWT AccessToken And Refresh Token

In this article, we are going to do ReactJS(v18) application authentication using the JWT Access Token and Refresh Token. JSON Web Token(JWT): JSON Web Token is a digitally signed and secured token for user validation. The JWT is constructed with 3 important parts: Header Payload Signature Create ReactJS Application: Let's create a ReactJS application to accomplish our demo. npx create-react-app name-of-your-app Configure React Bootstrap Library: Let's install the React Bootstrap library npm install react-bootstrap bootstrap Now add the bootstrap CSS reference in 'index.js'. src/index.js: import 'bootstrap/dist/css/bootstrap.min.css' Create A React Component 'Layout': Let's add a React component like 'Layout' in 'components/shared' folders(new folders). src/components/shared/Layout.js: import Navbar from "react-bootstrap/Navbar"; import { Container } from "react-bootstrap"; import Nav from "react-boot

A Small Guide On NestJS Queues

NestJS Application Queues helps to deal with application scaling and performance challenges. When To Use Queues?: API request that mostly involves in time taking operations like CPU bound operation, doing them synchronously which will result in thread blocking. So to avoid these issues, it is an appropriate way to make the CPU-bound operation separate background job.  In nestjs one of the best solutions for these kinds of tasks is to implement the Queues. For queueing mechanism in the nestjs application most recommended library is '@nestjs/bull'(Bull is nodejs queue library). The 'Bull' depends on Redis cache for data storage like a job. So in this queueing technique, we will create services like 'Producer' and 'Consumer'. The 'Producer' is used to push our jobs into the Redis stores. The consumer will read those jobs(eg: CPU Bound Operations) and process them. So by using this queues technique user requests processed very fastly because actually
