Pseudocode: Create Delete Route for Business Details

Objective:

Develop an API route that allows authorized users to delete business details from the database. This will enable users to remove a business record when it is no longer needed.

Steps:

1. Define the Delete Route in the Backend

• Express Route Handler Example:

  
  const express = require('express');
  const router = express.Router();
  const Business = require('../models/businessModel');  // Assuming the schema is in `models/businessModel.js`
  
  // DELETE route to remove business details
  router.delete('/businesses/:id', async (req, res) => {
    try {
        // 1. Extract the business ID from the route parameters.
        const businessId = req.params.id;
  
        // 2. Find the business by ID and delete it.
        const deletedBusiness = await Business.findByIdAndDelete(businessId);
  
        // 3. Check if the business was found and deleted.
        if (!deletedBusiness) {
            return res.status(404).json({ error: "Business not found." });
        }
  
        // 4. Return a success response with a confirmation message.
        res.status(200).json({ message: "Business successfully deleted." });
  
    } catch (error) {
        // 5. Handle any errors (e.g., invalid ID format, database issues).
        res.status(500).json({ error: "Server error. Please try again later." });
    }
  });
  
  module.exports = router;
