Full-Stack Backend Operations in Node.js

You are developing a RESTful API for an e-commerce application using Node.js, Express, and MongoDB. The system should support the following functionalities:

1. User Authentication: Implement JWT-based authentication with password hashing using bcrypt.
2. Product Management (CRUD Operations):
   • Create a new product with fields: name, description, price, category, and stock.
   • Retrieve a paginated list of products with optional filtering by category.
   • Update product details (only admin users can update).
   • Delete a product (only admin users can delete).
3. Order Processing:
   • Users should be able to place an order with multiple products.
   • The total order amount should be calculated dynamically.
   • The product stock should be reduced after an order is placed.
4. Middleware Operations:
   • Implement a middleware that logs API request details (method, URL, timestamp).
   • Implement role-based access control for admin-only operations.
5. Error Handling:
   • Implement centralized error handling for invalid requests and database errors.
