Meadow Endpoints

Automagic REST endpoints for basic CRUD operations on the Retold framework.

This library generates REST endpoints in a consistent manner. Endpoints have the following features:

* Authentication
* Resource Authorization
* CRUD Operations
* Dynamic Filtering
* Schema Validation

The design philosophy is not to cover every possible use case, but to cover the 99% via configuration. The last 1% is easily hand-craftable.

To best use this library, it should be in conjunction with stricture and orator.
