# Subrequests Express Example

An example Express app that uses Subrequests.

## Set up MySQL

This app depends on a mysql database.

  1. Create a database named `test` in your MySQL server.

  1. Import the table structures from `tables.sql` in the database.

  1. Once the tables are created, then import the sample data from `dump.sql`.

  1. Edit `db.js` to add your MySQL username and password replacing the `root:root` section.

## Test the API

Make the following requests to understand the exposed API:

  * `[GET]` http://localhost:3002/customer

  * `[GET]` http://localhost:3002/user

  * `[POST]` http://localhost:3002/subrequests with body

  ```json

  [

    {

      "requestId": "customers",

      "action": "view",

      "uri": "/customer"

    },

    {

      "requestId": "users",

      "action": "view",

      "uri": "/user/{{customers.body@$.*.User_id}}",

      "waitFor": ["customers"]
