• ExpressLess - 200 OK

  Mr.K

  Heard about Serverless? Already know Express.js? Too afraid to use the two?

  My talk will last ~20 mins and will cover the following:

  • Where are my servers? (Moving from the classic setup to a serverless one)

  • Express.js + Serverless?

  • How can I test my serverless app? (Offline testing)

  • Where are my logs?

  • Wait, are my apis public? (Securing your endpoints)

  • Shhhhh....(Keeping secrets)

  About me:

  I started my career over a decade ago writing code for firewalls and security systems (c/c++/java). In recent years I've been specialising in cloud engineering, microservices, aws and serverless (mostly in node.js).

  Now: I'm the CTO of a young and still in stealth mode startup - sourcingbot.com

• Objection.js, a SQL ORM

  Paul Jensen

  Objection.js is a SQL ORM (Object Relational mapping) for Node.js.

  In this talk, I will walk you through how the module works, show live examples of it in action, and present the case for considering it in your Node.js projects.

  Things that we'll cover are:

  • Quick setup
  • Creating the underlying database schema for your models via Knex.js
  • Creating models and executing SQL queries via the models
  • Implementing validation in your models with JSON schema
  • Defining relationships between models
  • Doing graph inserts and updates
  • Setting up a GraphQL API with the objection-graphql plugin
  • Other interesting objection.js plugins
