Re-implement Reddit!

Pursuit Reddit

Let's reimplement Reddit API with express.

High level requirements

1. Body Parser to handle JSON payloads in POST, PUT, DELETE requests

2. Logging service that drops messages to a logfile

Should write to logfile.txt in the following format:

PUT - /post/:id
{
    "title": "test title",
    "content": "..."
}

3. Protected endpoints that require authentication

Endpoints

Implement this endpoint

Basically already implemented!

• POST /login PUBLIC

Do not actually implement these endpoints, just the routes and the authorization / middleware!

users

• POST /user PUBLIC (basically, sign up)
• GET /user/:id PUBLIC
• PUT /user/:id PRIVATE (only user who is signed in can update his/her data)
• DELETE /user/:id PRIVATE (only user who is signed in can delete his/her data)

posts

• POST /post PRIVATE
• GET /post/:id PUBLIC
• PUT /post/:id PRIVATE
• DELETE /post/:id PRIVATE
