const mCoreFirewall = require('m-core-firewall');

const app = express();

// Configure the firewall
app.use(mCoreFirewall({
    // Optional configuration options
    rateLimit: { maxRequests: 5, windowMs: 15 * 60 * 1000 }, // Example rate limit settings
    sqlInjection: true, // Enable SQL injection protection
    xss: true // Enable XSS protection
}));

// Your routes and middleware
app.get('/test', (req, res) => {
    res.send('Hello, World!');
});

const PORT = process.env.PORT || 3000;
app.listen(PORT, () => {

app.use(mCoreFirewall({
    rateLimit: { maxRequests: 10, windowMs: 60 * 60 * 1000 }, // 10 requests per hour
    sqlInjection: true,
    xss: true
}));

app.get('/test', (req, res) => {
    res.send('This is a secure endpoint!');
});

const PORT = 4000;
app.listen(PORT, () => {
    console.log(`Server running on port ${PORT}`);
});
