- Clone the repository on your local machine
- Install dependencies with npm :
npm install - Build the project :
npm run build - Run the server :
npm run start - Go to
http://localhost:3000 - You're done !
For this project we used 3 different APIs :
-
NewsAPI
Retrieves all the headlines and articles from different countries
-
Yahoo Finance API
Retrieves stock market data (prices, change rate, etc.)
-
API Meteo Concept
Retrieves weather data given a geographic location
OpenAI is our fourth present API in the dashboard and provides a community library for handle request.
The AI is trained to be a sarcastic chat bot, requires english messages and can't remember previous questions

For security reasons, we do not store our API keys in the front-end application. The server is used as a proxy, which forwards requests from localhost to the real API by adding in the headers the API key (X-API-Key or Authorization).
In real life, the keys should be written in a .env file (and server's soure code should be private), however for this school project we placed them in a JS config file in the server directory.
The keys will be reset once the project has been reviewed by the professor 😉
