Getting started

You can build your first real-time and REST API in just 4 commands:

$ npm install -g @feathersjs/cli
$ mkdir my-new-app
$ cd my-new-app/
$ feathers generate app
$ npm start

To learn more about Feathers visit the website at feathersjs.com or jump right into the Feathers docs.

Here is all the code you need to create a RESTful, real-time message API that uses an in-memory data store:

const feathers = require('@feathersjs/feathers');
const express = require('@feathersjs/express');
const socketio = require('@feathersjs/socketio');

const memory = require('feathers-memory');

// Creates an Express compatible Feathers application
const app = express(feathers());

// Parse HTTP JSON bodies
app.use(express.json());
// Parse URL-encoded params
app.use(express.urlencoded({ extended: true }));
// Add REST API support
app.configure(express.rest());
// Configure Socket.io real-time APIs
app.configure(socketio());
// Register a messages service with pagination
app.use('/messages', memory({
  paginate: {
    default: 10,
    max: 25
  }
}));
// Register a nicer error handler than the default Express one
app.use(express.errorHandler());

// Add any new real-time connection to the `everybody` channel
app.on('connection', connection => app.channel('everybody').join(connection));
// Publish all events to the `everybody` channel
app.publish(data => app.channel('everybody'));

// Start the server
app.listen(3030).on('listening', () =>
  console.log('Feathers server listening on localhost:3030')
);

Then run

npm install @feathersjs/feathers @feathersjs/socketio @feathersjs/express feathers-memory
node app

and go to http://localhost:3030/messages. That's it! There's a lot more you can do with Feathers including; using a real database, authentication, authorization, clustering and more! Head on over to the Feathers docs to see just how easy it is to build scalable real-time apps.
