Creating a Match

[brandondionisio]

Categorizing the tutees as matched and unmatched

Summary 💻

For this ticket, you are tasked with implementing the createMatch() function in /backend/src/index.ts.

This function creates a match between a tutor and tutee given their ids by first checking if they both exist in the unmatched table and then creating a new row in the approved_matches table.

Deliverables 🚀

• Schedule at least two meetings as a pair
• Create a new branch using the "create a branch" button
• Implement the function
• Open a PR and request review from @brandondionisio.

Tips for success 📈

• If either the tutor_id or tutee_id doesn't exist in the unmatched table, your function should throw an error.
• If they both exist in the unmatched table, move those ids to the matched table and add a row in the approved_matches table that contains both ids.
• Duplicate ids in the unmatched and matched tables are ok.
