Deleting a user

The remove method will allow the view component to delete a specific user from the database, using fetch to make a DELETE call. This, again, is a protected route that will require a valid JWT as a credential, similar to the read and update methods. The response from the server to the delete request will be returned to the component as a promise.

mern-skeleton/client/user/api-user.js:

const remove = (params, credentials) => {
  return fetch('/api/users/' + params.userId, {
    method: 'DELETE',
    headers: {
      'Accept': 'application/json',
      'Content-Type': 'application/json',
      'Authorization': 'Bearer ' + credentials.t
    }
  }).then((response) => {
    return response.json()
  }).catch((err) => {
    console.log(err)
  }) 
}

Finally, export the user API helper methods to be imported and used by the React components as required.

mern-skeleton/client/user/api-user.js:

export { create, list, read, update, remove }
