10-Nodejs Course 2023: Application Module Structure

Now we're ready to move to our next step, which is to start manage our application and split it into different parts, but we will group all related ones under one directory, which we'll call it a module.

Modules

Modules are the main building blocks of our application, they are the main part of our application, and they are the ones that will be responsible for handling requests, responses, validation and database as well.

The module structure that we're going to use is the following:

src
├── app
│   ├── modules
│   │   ├── users
│   │   │   ├── controllers
│   │   │   │   ├── user.controller.ts
│   │   │   ├── validators
│   │   │   │   ├── create-user.validator.ts
│   │   │   ├── models
│   │   │   │   ├── user.model.ts
│   │   │   ├── middleware
│   │   │   │   ├── auth.middleware.ts
│   │   │   ├── responses
│   │   │   │   ├── user.response.ts
│   │   │   ├── utils
│   │   │   │   ├── user.locales.ts
│   │   │   ├── routes.ts

So in our previous schema, we'll have a directory called app which will be in the src directory, inside it there will be the modules directory, and inside it there will be a directory for each module, and inside it there will be the controllers, validators, models, middleware, responses, utils and routes.ts files and so on for each module we need.

PLease note that this structure can be used all of it or some of it based on the module requirements and size.
