Some feedback received was the addition of custom profile links, so when sharing it can share something like "https://pipelines.lol/user/name", which is what this PR brings! Also moved some frontend validation to the backend, where it belongs.
Profile Custom Links
server/controllers/profileController.js
- Added an endpoint to get profiles by username.server/routes/profiles.js
- Routes for the above endpoint ^.client/src/pages/Profile.js
- Added logic to check if the id in the URL is a MongoDB ID, if not, check if it is a valid username.Backend Validation - Moving over frontend -> backend
client/src/pages/Profile.js
- Burned all the frontend validation and Linkedin manipulation.client/src/components/ProfilePicture.js
- Not sure why the profile picture was fetching from params in the first place... made it fetch from the inputted profile data.LONG LIVE PIPELINES! 🚀
