const express = require('express') | |
const app = express() | |
const path = require('path') | |
const fetch = require('node-fetch') | |
const PORT = process.env.PORT || 3000 | |
app.get('/api/user', (req, res) => { | |
res.json({ name: 'Richard' }); | |
}); | |
app.get('/api/books', (req, res) => { | |
res.json({ books: 545 }); | |
}); | |
function get(url) { | |
return new Promise((resolve, reject) => { | |
fetch(url) | |
.then(res => res.json()) | |
.then(data => resolve(data)) | |
.catch(err => reject(err)) | |
}) | |
} | |
app.get('/', (req, res) => { | |
Promise.all([ | |
get(`http://localhost:${PORT}/api/user`), | |
get(`http://localhost:${PORT}/api/books`) | |
]).then(([user, {books}]) => | |
res.send({ | |
user: user.name, | |
books | |
})) | |
.catch(err => res.send('Ops, something has gone wrong')) | |
}) | |
