• write a question and observation on canvas

• students will be able to identify key qualities of the HTTP protocol
• students will be able to implement an HTTP server using the node.js http module

Your lab directory must include

• .gitignore
• .eslintrc.json
• .eslintignore
• package.json
• README.md

Note: You will need to npm i cowsay for this project

• Brief description of you app
• How to install / get started with your app
• How to interact with the endpoints
  • Sample requests and example responses
  • Note: use a code block to show the HTTPie and response format
• Create an HTTP Server using the NodeJS http module
• Create a custom body parsing module that is used for parsing the body of all POST and PUT requests

• For GET requests made to /, the server should respond with the following:
  • A header containing Content-Type: text/plain
  • A status code of 200
  • A response with the string "hello from my server!"

• For all GET requests made to /cowsay, the server should respond with the following:
  • Note: the query string should have the key value text=message
  • The response header should include Content-Type: text/plain
  • If the query text=message is set, respond with:
    • A status code of 200
    • A response body that includes the value returned from cowsay.say({ text: <querystring text> })
  • If the query text=message is not set, respond with:
    • Status code 400
    • A body including the value returned from cowsay.say({ text: 'bad request' })

• For all POST requests made to /cowsay, the server should respond with the following:
  • The response header should include Content-Type: text/plain
  • If the JSON {text: message} is set in the body, respond with:
    • A status code of 200
    • A response body including the value returned from cowsay.say({ text: <querystring text> })
  • If the JSON {text: message} is not set in the body, respond with:
    • Status code 400
    • A body including the value returned from cowsay.say({ text: 'bad request' })

• Note: There is no need to unit test the body parser module for this lab
• Write tests that validate any GET request to / and assert that the 200 response is received, including the defined response message
• Write tests that validate all GET requests to /cowsay and assert that the 200 response is received, including the cowsay response message
  • Do not neglect the query string format required for the text message
• Write tests that validate any malformed requests to /cowsay and assert that the 400 response is received, including the cowsay response message
• Write tests that validate all POST requests to /cowsay and assert that the 200 response is received, including the cowsay response message
• Write tests that validate any malformed requests to /cowsay and assert that the 400 response is received, including the cowsay response message
  • Do not neglect the request body format required for the text message

• Add the ability to change the cow file - ex: dragon, sheep, etc (note: this should be done through the querystring)
