# Unit 12 Mini-Project: Movie Database
In this mini-project, you will build Rest API routes for creating, retrieving, and deleting movies from a MySQL database.
## User Stories
* As a user, I want to create a new database.
* As a user, I want to store movie names and reviews in the database in two separate table.
* As a user, I want to see a list of all movies.
* As a user, I want to be able to create and delete a movie.
* As a user, I want to return a list of all the reviews and the associated movie name.
## Acceptance Criteria
* It's done when `movie_db` is created and contains a `movies` and `reviews` table.
* It's done when `movie_db` has been seeded with data.
* It's done when the `/api/movies` route renders a list of all movies.
* It's done when the `/api/add-movie` route successfully adds a movie when tested using Insomnia.
* It's done when the `/api/update-review` route successfully updates a movie when tested using Insomnia.
* It's done when the `/api/movie/:id` route deletes a route when tested using Insomnia.

## Assets
Design the following database schema that contains two tables:

## Notes
To test your routes you will use Insomnia. If you have not already downloaded it, you will need to visit the [Insomnia download page](https://insomnia.rest/download) and do so.
Refer to the documentation:
[Insomnia documentation on getting started](https://support.insomnia.rest/category/152-using-insomnia)
[Express.js documentation on routing](https://expressjs.com/en/guide/routing.html)
[MySQL documentation on joins](https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/8.0/en/join.html)
[npm documentation on MySQL2](https://www.npmjs.com/package/mysql2)
## 💡 Hints
How can you link your `movies` and `reviews` tables?
How can you execute a query in an Express.js server using the npm `MySQL2` package?
## 🏆 Bonus
If you have completed this activity, work through the following challenge with your partner to further your knowledge:
* How can you add a route to update a review?
Use [Google](www.google.com) or another search engine to research this.
