Creating Veery API NodeJS

Jan 24, 2017

http://veeryapinodejs.soupmode.com

cd into /home/veery

mkdir Veery-API-NodeJS

cd into Veery-API-NodeJS

mkdir js

cd js

mkdir node_modules, although it might get automatically created later

create package.json

{
"name" : "Veery-API-NodeJS",
"version" : "1.0.0",
"dependencies" : {
"express" : "4.14.0",
"body-parser" : "1.16.0",
"html-entities" : "1.2.0",
"querystring" : "0.2.0"
}
}

unsure if i need all of those packages. i looked up the most recent package version numbers at https://www.npmjs.com

the command "npm install" will read the package.json file, create node_modules directory, and place the downloaded the packages listed in the json file at this location.
