Create API: Query search phrase + date -> Relevant Articles

[joegenius98]

API that takes in a query JSON from a user (query has date range, search phrase, geographical scope, etc.) (Just doing searching search phrase and date range for now) that returns from our GDELT table: the most relevant articles. There’s only one table Samira and Lena have to know. Find this table. This goal is the querying feature of the SCOPE discovery piece.

There are many algorithms out there that can obtain the most relevant articles. Google’s PageRank, for example. Maybe just go with PageRank for now? Once you all get this algorithm working, then consider other algorithms if needed.
