For this assignment, you will extend the in-memory API we built in class with new endpoints relating to comments.

Currently, our "database" looks like the following:

const db = {
  posts: [
    {
      id: 1,
      title: "Post 1",
      body: "something here...",
    },
    {
      id: 2,
      title: "Post 2",
      body: "something else here...",
    },
  ],
}

POST /api/comments

This endpoint will create a new comment for a post. For example, let's say we want to create a comment for the post with an id of 2. The request payload should look like the following:

{
  "post": 2,
  "body": "The body of the comment..."
}

The response status code should be 200 with the following content:

{
  "id": 1,
  "post": 2,
  "body": "The body of the comment..."
}

Assuming this is the first comment created in our "database", the id would be 1. This can just be an autoincrementing number.

Validation on POST /api/comments

Add the following validation to the POST /api/comments endpoint:

post is required

post must be present in the request payload. If it is missing, send a response with a 400 status code and the following content:

{
  "errors": {
    "post": "post is required"
  }
}

post must be valid

If the value in post doesn't match one of the post ids in our "database", respond with a 404 status code.

GET /api/posts/:id/comments

This endpoint should return all the comments for the post with an id of :id. The response should be an array. If there are no comments for the post, return an empty array.

DELETE /api/comments/:id

This endpoint should delete a comment from the post it belongs to. If the comment was successfully deleted, respond with a 204 status code. If the comment doesn't exist, respond with a 404 status code.

Note, you are welcome to change how db stores posts and comments in order to find the comment to delete more efficiently, but you don't have to.

PUT /api/comments/:id

This endpoint should update a comment with an id of :id. The request payload should be of the structure:

{
  "id": 1,
  "body": "Updated comment..."
}

If the update is successful, return a 204 status code. If the comment doesn't exist, return a 404 status code.
