Quick Start Guide

This guide will help you install, configure, and make your first API request to MaqAgr.

​
Prerequisites

Before you begin, ensure you have the following installed:

Node.js

v24.13.0 or higherJavaScript runtime

PostgreSQL

v12 or higherRelational database

npm/pnpm

Latest versionPackage manager

​
Installation

1

Clone the repository

Clone the MaqAgr backend repository to your local machine:
git clone https://github.com/David9604/BackMaqagr.git
cd BackMaqagr
2

Install dependencies

Install all required Node.js packages:
npm install
The project uses ES modules ("type": "module" in package.json), so all imports use ES6 syntax.
3

Configure environment variables

Create a .env file in the root directory with your configuration:
cp .env.example .env
# Edit .env with your database credentials and JWT secret
If .env.example doesn’t exist, create a .env file manually with the variables shown below.
Required environment variables:
.env
# Server Configuration
PORT=4000
NODE_ENV=development

# Database Configuration
DB_HOST=localhost
DB_PORT=5432
DB_NAME=MaqAgr
DB_USER=postgres
DB_PASS=your_postgres_password

# JWT Configuration
JWT_SECRET=your_super_secret_key_here
JWT_EXPIRES_IN=24h
Never commit your .env file to version control. Always use a strong, unique JWT_SECRET in production.
4

Set up the database

Create the PostgreSQL database and import the schema:
# Create database
createdb MaqAgr

# Import schema files
psql -d MaqAgr -f docs/dbSetting/users_202601311817.sql
psql -d MaqAgr -f docs/dbSetting/tractor_202601311817.sql
psql -d MaqAgr -f docs/dbSetting/implement_202601311817.sql
psql -d MaqAgr -f docs/dbSetting/terrain_202601311817.sql
psql -d MaqAgr -f database/indexes.sql
The schema files create all necessary tables, relationships, and indexes for the API.
5

Start the server

Run the development server:
npm run dev  # Development mode with nodemon
# OR
npm start    # Production mode
You should see output similar to:
🚜 Servidor corriendo en puerto 4000
📡 Ambiente: development
The API is now running at http://localhost:4000

​
Your First API Request

Let’s walk through a complete authentication flow and make your first authenticated request.
1

Register a new user

Create a new user account by sending a POST request to /api/auth/register:
cURL
curl -X POST http://localhost:4000/api/auth/register \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "name": "Juan Pérez",
    "email": "juan@example.com",
    "password": "SecurePass123!"
  }'

const response = await fetch('http://localhost:4000/api/auth/register', {
  method: 'POST',
  headers: {
    'Content-Type': 'application/json'
  },
  body: JSON.stringify({
    name: 'Juan Pérez',
    email: 'juan@example.com',
    password: 'SecurePass123!'
  })
});

const data = await response.json();
console.log(data);
Password requirements:
  • Minimum 8 characters
  • At least one uppercase letter
  • At least one number
  • At least one special character
Response (201 Created):
{
  "success": true,
  "message": "Usuario registrado exitosamente",
  "data": {
    "user": {
      "user_id": 1,
      "name": "Juan Pérez",
      "email": "juan@example.com",
      "role_id": 2,
      "status": "active",
      "registration_date": "2026-03-11T10:00:00.000Z"
    },
    "token": "eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9..."
  }
}
New users are assigned role_id: 2 (regular user) by default. The response includes a JWT token valid for 24 hours.
2

Save your token

Copy the token value from the registration response. You’ll need this for authenticated requests.The token payload contains:
{
  "user_id": 1,
  "email": "juan@example.com",
  "role_id": 2,
  "name": "Juan Pérez",
  "iat": 1710151200,
  "exp": 1710237600
}
Store tokens securely. Never expose them in client-side code or logs. Tokens expire after 24 hours.
3

Make an authenticated request

Use your token to access a protected endpoint. Let’s fetch your user profile:
cURL
curl -X GET http://localhost:4000/api/auth/profile \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9..."

const token = 'eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9...';

const response = await fetch('http://localhost:4000/api/auth/profile', {
  headers: {
    'Authorization': `Bearer ${token}`
  }
});

const profile = await response.json();
console.log(profile);
Response (200 OK):
{
  "success": true,
  "message": "Perfil obtenido exitosamente",
  "data": {
    "user": {
      "user_id": 1,
      "name": "Juan Pérez",
      "email": "juan@example.com",
      "role_id": 2,
      "role_name": "Usuario",
      "status": "active",
      "registration_date": "2026-03-11T10:00:00.000Z",
      "last_session": "2026-03-11T10:05:00.000Z"
    }
  }
}
4

Explore other endpoints

Now that you’re authenticated, you can access other API endpoints. Let’s list available tractors:
cURL
curl -X GET http://localhost:4000/api/tractors \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9..."
Response (200 OK):
{
  "success": true,
  "message": "Tractores obtenidos exitosamente",
  "data": [
    {
      "tractor_id": 1,
      "name": "John Deere 5075E",
      "power": 75,
      "weight": 3200,
      "brand": "John Deere",
      "model": "5075E"
    }
  ]
}

​
Common Errors

Here are some common errors you might encounter and how to resolve them:

​
Missing or Invalid Token

{
  "success": false,
  "message": "Token no proporcionado"
}
Solution: Include the Authorization: Bearer <token> header in your request.

​
Expired Token

{
  "success": false,
  "message": "Token inválido o expirado"
}
Solution: Tokens expire after 24 hours. Log in again to get a new token.

​
Validation Error

{
  "success": false,
  "message": "Contraseña no cumple requisitos",
  "errors": [
    "Debe tener al menos 8 caracteres",
    "Debe incluir una mayúscula"
  ]
}
Solution: Check the errors array for specific validation requirements.

​
Email Already Registered

{
  "success": false,
  "message": "El email ya está registrado"
}
Solution: Use a different email address or log in with the existing account.

​
Testing the API

The project includes comprehensive tests: 
# Run all tests (97+ unit + E2E tests)
npm test

# Run tests with coverage report
npm run test:coverage

# Run tests in watch mode (development)
npm run test:watch

# Run only E2E tests
npm run test:e2e

# Run only unit tests
npm run test:unit

​
Swagger Documentation

The API includes interactive Swagger documentation. Once the server is running, visit: 
http://localhost:4000/api-docs
Swagger UI allows you to:
  • Explore all endpoints interactively
  • View request/response schemas
  • Test endpoints directly from your browser
  • See detailed parameter descriptions

​
Health Check

Verify the API is running correctly: 
curl http://localhost:4000/health
You should receive a health status response indicating the API and database connection status.
