Catstravaganza - a Sequelize/Express Review

(by Julie Busch!)

Start it up

$ createdb catstravaganza (first time setup only; assumes you have PostgreSQL and its CLI tool installed)
$ npm install
$ npm start

Check out those routes!

You'll need to use the post route a few times or just add info directly in Postico because there is no seed file. But you're here to learn about routes anyway, so I don't feel bad about making you do that.
I highly recommend downloading the Postman tool for testing routes
- You can use Postman to send all types of requests to your localhost and see the responses

There's a review video featuring this repo here!

Adopt-a-Cat Challenge: try adding your own method and route!

See if you can use the methods given to you by the "Owner has many cats" relation!
- Create an owner instance method called adopt that is passed the id of a cat and then associates that cat with its new owner! (Have the owner adopt a random cat if no id is passed in, but not one that already has an owner!)
- Then make a PUT route in the owner routes that will allow an owner to adopt a cat!
- You can see a solution to this in the adoption-solution branch, which is discussed in this video!
Play around and see what other methods and routes you can come up with!

That's it! Happy Studying!
