Open the project folder in terminal and sync up.

swift package update                   # update dependencies
swift package generate-xcodeproj       # regenerate Xcode project
open *.xcodeproj                       # open Xcode

Before running the project, make sure MongoDB is installed on your machine and is running.

Assuming you have Docker for Mac installed and running, create a new MongoDB container with:

docker run --name example-mongo -p 27017:27017 mongo:latest

Or if you've done this once, start the existing container:

docker start example-mongo

brew update
brew install mongodb

Next, create the db folder for MongoDB to store the databases and check the permissions for the db folder:

mkdir -p /data/db
sudo chown -R `id -un` /data/db

Launch the MongoDB server:

mongod

Now, run the project on xcode.

The Postman (API Development Environment) is a neat tool for setting up and performing HTTP requests repeatably.

Create a POST request to the following URL:

http://localhost:8080/todos

And set the following two keys and values in the body:

Note: If there are no key and values in the body of the post request, you will see the following error:

[ ERROR ] Abort.415: No 'Content-Type' header is present. ContentContainer.swift:320)

Create a GET request to the following URL:

http://localhost:8080/todos

You should see the created Todo from the POST request.
