Assignment

Download Postman. You'll be using this to verify that your routes are working properly. Download nodemon using npm i -g nodemon. Create a new folder and run npm init to create your package.json file. Install npm packages: npm i --save express body-parser Create a server that makes the following routes function properly.

• [POST] /users This route should save a new user to the server. (This is just in memory and will not persist if you restart the server.)
• [GET] /users This route will return an array of all users.
• [GET] /users/:id This route will return the user with the matching id property.
• [GET] /search?name=<query> The query parameter passed to this route should specify the name of the user you are searching for. Return an array of all users whose names match the name provided. This search should not be case sensitive.
• [DELETE] /users/:id This route should delete the specified user. Your user objects can take any form. Just ensure that they have an id property. You can generate this id property on the server any way you like.
