Integrate a search functionality and API on the Borrow Page to allow users to explore and filter products efficiently. The page should support:
- Random Product Fetching (Explore More Button)
- Category & Gender-based Filtering (Him/Her for Clothes, Footwear, Accessories)
- Search Query Support for Specific Product Searches
Task Breakdown:
Frontend Changes:
-
Borrow Page Layout Updates:
- Add a search bar to allow users to search for specific products.
- Ensure that clicking on any category (e.g., "Footwear for Him") redirects users to the search page but pre-filters results accordingly.
- Ensure that clicking on "Explore More" fetches random products from the database.
-
Routing & Navigation:
- Clicking on category cards (Him/Her for Clothes, Footwear, Accessories) should pass category & gender filters when navigating.
- Clicking Explore More should navigate users to the same search page but display random products.
Backend & API Changes:
-
Create API Route for Fetching Products:
- Fetch products based on search queries.
- Fetch random products for the "Explore More" section.
- Fetch category & gender-based products when navigating from category cards.
-
MongoDB Query Requirements:
- Random Data Fetch (for "Explore More").
- Category & Gender Filter (for Him/Her sections).
- Search Query Handling (to match product names, descriptions, etc.)
Expected Outcome:
- Users can browse random products through "Explore More".
- Users can view products filtered by category & gender when selecting Him/Her options.
- Users can search for specific products in the search bar.
- The system fetches & displays relevant data dynamically.
