Class: AbstractBREADProvider

AbstractBREADProvider(req, res, next, optionsopt)

This is a generic class to provide middleware for Browse/Read/Edit/Add/Delete operations and forms. It comes with some baked-in pre-flight checks but needs to be extended to do useful work. All default actions except reads require being logged in.

Use the bakery method to create standard BREAD routes. :)
