Define Client API for openFDA Queries about flexion-ads-18f-response HOT 2 CLOSED

Initial Design Concepts

1. The frontend javascript application will pass a query object to the backend server endpoint /api/epi-search?search=
2. The query object will represent the data needed to perform a openFDA search in json format. For example:

search: {
fields: [
{
field:"brand_name",
terms:[
{term: "lyrica"},
]
},
{
field: "serious",
terms: [
{term: "1"}
],
isAnd: true
},
{
field: "receivedate",
terms: [
{term: "[20140101+TO+20150101]"}
],
isAnd: true
}
],
count: {field:"receivedate"}

Ultimately the json object will support all functionality of the openFDA api available at: https://open.fda.gov/api/reference/#query-syntax
