javascript - Angular JS - Express Routing -

i running mean framework express routing requests. have 2 main routes public/ , app.

with app being api , public being set of web pages reads data api.

// setting app router , static folder app.use(express.static(path.resolve('./public'))); 

i have 2 controllers in public folder, home , header.

in home controller using angular js call api , return results.

the api allows filtering through use of query strings:

$http.get('http://search?sumboth=1&customer=' + customer)

i build route specific controller along lines of

http://url/customers/customername

where customername set customer variable

question

a) best done in angular or express? b) , how implement such routing?

i hope question received, please comment, if need more information.

i understand response of $http.get('http://host/path?sumboth=1&customer=' + customer) list of search results. in case path should collection path, it's not best practice have search terms in path. subcollection paths pretty standard (something http://host/customers/search?params, still specific search terms should go in query string)

if on contrary expect retrieve 1 result identificator (provided instance customer name unique) that's different story, should use http://host/customers/:identifier.

in case can use angular resources, both parts of application need aware of routing. in front-end define additional verb adds filters (or use standard query 1 - see https://docs.angularjs.org/api/ngresource/service/$resource). in back-end need route call , parse parameters. if it's list, parse query string , render result array, if it's single resource, parse identifier, find corresponding resource , render back.
