RESTFUL API

Backend for a web application that allows users to load a CSV file with preformatted data and display the data as cards on the website.

Requirements

• Upload a csv file
• Search Users
• Node RESTful API
• Errors handling
• Automated Tests

Endpoints

• [POST /api/files] An endpoint that accepts a CSV file upload from the frontend and stores the data in a database or a data structure. You should use the key "file" in the body request.
• [GET /api/users] Should include an endpoint that allows the frontend to search through the loaded CSV data. This route should accept a ?q= query parameter for search terms and should search through EVERY column of the CSV. The filter should search for partial matches and also be case insensitive.
