2. Backend API Implementation with Express.js
`typescript

origin: process.env.FRONTEND_URL,
credentials: true
}));
// Rate limiting
const limiter = rateLimit({
windowMs: 15 60 1000, // 15 minutes
max: 100, // limit each IP to 100 requests per windowMs

});
app.use('/api/', limiter);
// Parsing middleware

3. Database Models with Mongoose
`typescript
// server/models/User.ts
import mongoose, { Document, Schema } from 'mongoose';
export interface IUser extends Document {
email: string;
name: string;
password: string;
role: 'admin' | 'user';
emailVerified: boolean;
lastLogin: Date;
createdAt: Date;
updatedAt: Date;
}
const userSchema = new Schema({
email: {
type: String,
required: true,
unique: true,
lowercase: true,
trim: true,
index: true
},
name: {
type: String,
required: true,
trim: true,
maxlength: 50
},
password: {
type: String,
required: true,
minlength: 8
},
role: {
type: String,
enum: ['admin', 'user'],
default: 'user'
},
emailVerified: {
type: Boolean,
default: false
},
lastLogin: {
type: Date,
default: Date.now
}
}, {
timestamps: true,
toJSON: {
transform: function(doc, ret) {
delete ret.password;
return ret;
}
}
});
// Indexes for performance
userSchema.index({ email: 1 });
userSchema.index({ role: 1 });
userSchema.index({ createdAt: -1 });
export const User = mongoose.model('User', userSchema);
// server/models/Post.ts
import mongoose, { Document, Schema } from 'mongoose';
export interface IPost extends Document {
title: string;
content: string;
slug: string;
tags: string[];
published: boolean;
authorId: mongoose.Types.ObjectId;
viewCount: number;
likeCount: number;
createdAt: Date;
updatedAt: Date;
}
const postSchema = new Schema({
title: {
type: String,
required: true,
trim: true,
maxlength: 200
},
content: {
type: String,
required: true
},
slug: {
type: String,
required: true,
unique: true,
lowercase: true,
index: true
},
tags: [{
type: String,
trim: true,
lowercase: true
}],
published: {
type: Boolean,
default: false
},
authorId: {
type: Schema.Types.ObjectId,
ref: 'User',
required: true,
index: true
},
viewCount: {
type: Number,
default: 0
},
likeCount: {
type: Number,
default: 0
}
}, {
timestamps: true
});
// Compound indexes for complex queries
postSchema.index({ published: 1, createdAt: -1 });
postSchema.index({ authorId: 1, published: 1 });
postSchema.index({ tags: 1, published: 1 });
postSchema.index({ title: 'text', content: 'text' });
// Virtual populate for author
postSchema.virtual('author', {
ref: 'User',
localField: 'authorId',
foreignField: '_id',
justOne: true
});
export const Post = mongoose.model('Post', postSchema);
