Endpoint that lists all typeahead possibilities #12

Closed kevinkdo closed 8 years ago

Endpoint takes no parameters, you send back a list of all relation names + all attribute names, we can do the typeahead calculation on the frontend when user hits

If you prefer to have the alternative design where we send as a parameter what the user has typed so far and you send back all the possible completions based on the supplied prefix, let us know and we can talk about it. this second solution probably scales better for many relations + many columns, but it introduces a lot of latency on

Lookahead endpoint is finished. Endpoint can be accessed at "/lookahead/". JSONArray of strings is passed back. More documentation is available on the "development" branch of the backend repo.
