Server Documentation

Overview

This Express.js server serves as an API for working with the DALL-E model and handling posts with associated images. It integrates with Cloudinary for image storage and retrieval and uses the OpenAI API to generate images based on prompts.

Prerequisites Before running the server, make sure you have the following dependencies installed:

• Node.js (v14 or later)
• NPM (Node Package Manager)
• MongoDB (with the connection URL provided in the environment variable MONGODB_URL)
• Cloudinary Account (with API credentials stored in environment variables ClOULDINARY_CLOUD_NAME, ClOULDINARY_API_KEY, and ClOULDINARY_API_SECRET)
• OpenAI API Key (stored in the environment variable OPENAI_API_KEY)

Configuration

Ensure that you have set up your environment variables in a .env file in the root directory. Sample .env file:

MONGODB_URL=your-mongodb-connection-url ClOULDINARY_CLOUD_NAME=your-cloudinary-cloud-name ClOULDINARY_API_KEY=your-cloudinary-api-key ClOULDINARY_API_SECRET=your-cloudinary-api-secret OPENAI_API_KEY=your-openai-api-key
