Word Race

• In client/actions, replace the axios request URLs with the URL of your deployed backend(or localhost in development). Ideally, you would want to create a proxy in package.json or export a variable from a file that contains the URL of your backend API so they act as placeholders for your API calls in actions.
• Make a folder called config in your server folder. This folder will contain db.js(contains the code to connect to mongoDB), default.json and production.json which will hold both your MongoDB URL and JWT Secret. Make sure this folder is added to gitignore.

db.js

import mongoose from "mongoose";

import config from "config";

const connection = config.get("mongoURL");

const connectDB = async () => {
  try {
    await mongoose.connect(connection, {
      useNewUrlParser: true,

      useUnifiedTopology: true,
    });

    console.log("mongoDB connected");
  } catch (err) {
    console.log(err);
  }
};

export default connectDB;

default.json and production.json

{
  "mongoURL": "YOUR MONGO URL",

  "jwtSecret": "YOUR JWT SECRET"
}
