Create endpoint to check if email exists

knjk04 commented 2 years ago

Is your feature request related to a problem? If so, please describe. When we log in on the frontend, we ask for the email and password together. If we ask for them separately, we can provide a nicer user experience by letting the user know which (out of email and password) field they typed in was incorrect

Describe the solution you'd like Create an endpoint in the UserController that uses our service method to see whether the email exists.

If the email does not exist, we should return a 404. If the email does exist, we can return 200 OK. This should be a GET method.
