});

server.listen(3000);

GET    /books(:id)
POST   /books
PUT    /books(:id)
DELETE /books(:id)

Use the following OData query:

Example
GET /books?$select=id, title
GET /books?$top=3&$skip=2
GET /books?$orderby=price desc
GET /books?$filter=price gt 10
GET ...

Further options

The odata constructor takes 3 arguments: odata(<mongoURL>, <dbPrefix>, <options>);

The options object currently only supports one parameter: expressRequestLimit, this will be parsed to the express middelware as the "limit" option, which allows for configuring express to support larger requests. It can be either a number or a string like "50kb", 20mb", etc.
