## Introduction
The **SurveyHub Backend Server** provides RESTful APIs for creating, managing, and analyzing surveys. Designed using modern frameworks and tools, this server ensures high performance, security, and maintainability, making it a reliable backbone for enterprise-level survey management systems.
## Features
- **Role-Based Access Control (RBAC):** Admin and user roles with tailored access.
- **Secure Authentication:** Powered by JWT and bcrypt.
- **Survey Management:** APIs for creating, updating, and deleting surveys.
- **Data Insights:** Efficient data retrieval for analytics.
- **Scalable Architecture:** Designed for horizontal and vertical scalability.
- **API Documentation:** Comprehensive OpenAPI 3.0.3 documentation for developers.
## Prerequisites
Ensure the following tools are installed on your system:
- [Node.js (>=16.x)](https://nodejs.org/)
- [MySQL Server (>=8.x)](https://dev.mysql.com/downloads/)
- [Git](https://git-scm.com/downloads)
- **Optional:**
- [Postman](https://www.postman.com/) or any REST API client for testing APIs.
## Installation
### 1. Clone the Repository
```bash
git clone https://github.com/yourusername/SurveyHub.git
cd SurveyHub/backend
```
### 2. Install Dependencies
```bash
npm install
```
### 3. Database Setup
Ensure MySQL is running. Create a database named `surveyhub`:
```sql
CREATE DATABASE surveyhub;
```
### 4. Environment Configuration
Create a `.env` file in the `backend` directory:
```env
NODE_ENV=development
PORT=8080
DB_HOST=localhost
DB_PORT=3306
DB_USER=root
DB_PASSWORD=YourStrongPassword
DB_NAME=surveyhub
JWT_SECRET=YourJWTSecret
```
### 5. Start the Server
Run the development server:
```bash
npm start
```
> [!NOTE]
> The server will be available at `http://localhost:8080`.
## Usage
- Access the API documentation at `http://localhost:8080/api-docs` (OpenAPI 3.0.3).
- Use Postman or any REST client to test the endpoints.
