Part 2: Saving Faves

User Stories

1. As a user, I want to save movies from my search results to a list of my faves.
2. As a user, I want to perform this action from the movie detail page.

Steps to Achieve

1. Install the new node modules needed for database access.
2. Initialize sequelize for this project.
3. Update the config file and create a database named omdb.
4. Create a fave model with two fields- title:string and imdbid:string
5. Run migrations.
6. Require your model into the location of your routes.
7. Modify your detail.ejs to include a form for adding this movie as a fave:

• This form should have a POST method, with an action of /faves
• It should contain two hidden fields containing the title and IMDB ID of this movie. These fields should be named the same as your model attribute names.

8. Write your POST route for /faves:

• Use req.body to access body data from the form.
• Use the fave model to save this data to your database. YOU WILL NEED TO REQUIRE THE MODEL TO USE IT.
• In the callback of your create, use res.redirect to redirect to the GET route for your faves.

9. Write your GET route for /faves:

• Use the fave model to get all faves from your database.
• In the callback, use res.render to render all your faves to a page named faves.ejs (not provided).
