Enterprises often frustrate developers. Why do Enterprises always seem so behind when it comes to the very latest technology? In particular, a trend we are seeing is the continued struggle to marry Enterprise authentication with the burgeoning world of REST APIs.

This entry is about a tool that can mine the music blogs for youtube videos, and create a nice playlist to be played latter on. I call it the Minimal Media Server, because it’s actually a local HTTP server in your computer that you will use to push videos using REST like calls and play them back using a customized youtube player.

node-apiserver - A ready to go, modular, multi transport, streaming friendly, JSON(P) API Server. It is a slim, fast, minimal API framework, built to provide you a flexible API consumable both in the browser and from other apps. It ships with JSON, JSONP (GET/POST) transports and a powerful fast routing engine OOTB. The source code is small, heavily tested and decoupled. Your API source will be well organized in context objects, allowing you to keep it in a meaningful maintainable way.

In this post I am going to talk about how we built the backend infrastructure to support our Products API, Semantics3’s core product. This post can also be seen as a follow up or maybe even a reply to a post some time back by Zemanta, which dealt with building public APIs.

In this post, I will demonstrate how to build a simple REST API using Node.js with NoSQL database MongoDB. This demo app will be using MongoDB object modeling tool Mongoose to connecting with MongoDB from the Node app. This demo app is a very basic level API app without following any better practices and mainly created this sample demo for demonstrating Node.js and MongoDB using with Mongoose Node package.
