Design and implement a RESTful web service to facilitate a user authentication system. The authentication mechanism should be token based. Requests and responses should be in JSON.
Models
The User model should have the following properties (at minimum):
- name
- password
You should determine what, if any, additional models you will need.
Endpoints
All of these endpoints should be written from a user's perspective.
- User Registration
- Login (token based) - should return a token, given valid credentials
- Logout - logs a user out
- Update a User's Information
- Delete a User
