Challenge 7 - Search movies
For this task, pagination and search functionality need to be implemented.
Part a
The following API endpoint needs to be implemented.
GET /api/movie/get/pagination?pageSize=4&page=3
To achieve this, you should implement the getMoviesWithPagination() function in both the movieController and movieRepository. This function should handle pagination for the movies, where a fixed number of movies are returned per page, based on the pageSize and page parameters.
Here’s the desired response format for page = 1 with pageSize = 4:
