🎯 Usage
Basic Usage
// Example: Adding a book to the catalog
const addBook = async (title, author, description, price, stockQuantity, category, coverImage) => {
const response = await axios.post('/api/book/addBook', {
title,
author,
description,
price,
stockQuantity,
category,
coverImage
});
console.log(response.data);
};
// Example: Fetching books by category
const getBooksByCategory = async (category) => {
const response = await axios.get(`/api/book/category/${category}`);
return response.data;
};
Advanced Usage
<details> <summary>📚 Customizing the Book Catalog</summary>Modify the book schema in models/book.js to add new fields:
const bookSchema = new Schema({
title: { type: String, required: true },
author: { type: String, required: true },
isbn: { type: String, unique: true },
// Add custom fields here
tags: [String],
series: String,
edition: Number
});
</details>
<details>
<summary>⭐ Enhancing User Reviews</summary>
