MongoDB Integration

This project is integrated with MongoDB for data storage. Here's how to set it up:

MongoDB Connection

1. Make sure you have a MongoDB instance running locally or use MongoDB Atlas for cloud hosting.
2. Copy the .env.example file to .env and update the MONGODB_URI variable with your MongoDB connection string.
3. The application will automatically connect to MongoDB when it starts.

Data Models

The application uses the following main data models:

• Candidate: Stores candidate information including personal details, skills, education, and interview status.
• User: Stores user information for authentication and authorization.

CRUD Operations

All CRUD operations for candidates are available through the API:

• Create: POST to /api/candidates
• Read: GET to /api/candidates or /api/candidates/[id]
• Update: PUT/PATCH to /api/candidates/[id]
• Delete: DELETE to /api/candidates/[id]

Additionally, there are special operations:

• Hotlist: Add or remove candidates from the hotlist using /api/hotlist
• Filter: Filter candidates by various criteria using query parameters

Testing MongoDB Connection

To test your MongoDB connection and CRUD operations, you can run:

# Test MongoDB connection
bun test:mongodb

# Interactive CRUD test
bun test:crud

Seeding Demo Data
