# Get started
## Build a RESTful API within 2 minutes
In this tutorial, we will explain how to create a simple application that provides a RESTful API using the Suki framework.
### 0. Define the API
We will build an API to manage books. The API consists of the following methods:
Method
URL
Action
GET
/books
Retrieves all books
POST
/books
Create a new book
GET
/books/:bookId
Retrieves a specific book
PUT
/books/:bookId
Updates a specific book
DELETE
/books/:bookId
Deletes a specific book
### 1. Install Suki
Suki is bundled with an executable. If you install suki globally with npm you'll have it available from anywhere on your machine:
`$ npm install -g suki`
### 2. Create a application
A good beginning is half done. Suki can create a template application for you:
`$ suki new book`
Where `book` is the name of your application.
After execute the command, Suki will create a directory named "book" in the current path.
### 3. Define the model
Suki follows the MVC pattern and use the [Sequelize](http://sequelizejs.com) library as the model layer.
Now let's define the book model. We can create the book model using the following command:
`$ suki generate model book`
```CoffeeScript
module.exports = class extends Suki.SequelizeModel
title: Sequelize.STRING
price: Sequelize.INTEGER
```
### 4. Define the controller
`$ suki create-controller task`
```CoffeeScript
module.exports = class extends Suki.Controller
# GET /books
index: ->
Book.findAll().complete (err, books) =>
@res.json books
# POST /books
create: ->
(Book.create { title: @req.body.title, price: @req.body.price}).complete (err, book) =>
@res.json book
# GET /books/:bookId
show: (@book) ->
@res.json @book
# PUT /books/:bookId
update: (@book) ->
@book.title = req.body.title
@book.price = req.body.price
@res.json @book.save()
# DELETE /books/:bookId
destroy: (@book) ->
@book.destroy()
@res.json { "message": "deleted" }
```
