CS-546 Lab 5
JSON Routes
For this lab, you will create a simple server that will provide data from an API.
For this lab, you will not need to use a database.
For this lab, you must use the async/await keywords (not Promises). You will also be using axios
(https://github.com/axios/axios) , which is a HTTP client for Node.js; you can install it with npm i axios . You will use it just as you did in lab 3.
Network JSON Data
You will be downloading JSON files from the following GitHub Gists:
people.json
(https://gist.githubusercontent.com/graffixnyc/a1196cbf008e85a8e808dc60d4db7261/raw/9fd0d1a4d7846b stocks.json (Links to an external site.)

Your routes

When making a GET request to http://localhost:3000/people , this route will return the JSON data that is returned from the axios call to the URL endpoint. You will use people.json for the list of people. You MUST return the data in JSON format.
/stocks
When making a GET request to http://localhost:3000/stocks , this route will return the JSON data that is returned from the axios call to the URL endpoint. You will use stocks.json for the list of stocks. You MUST return the data in

You MUST return the data in JSON format.
