Auction API

The Auction API allows you to manipulate lots, bids in an auction. The operations you can do, through the API, are:

Create a new lot: [POST /lot];
Changes information of the lot: [PUT /lot/:LOT_ID];
Starts the auction of a lot: [POST /auction/:LOT_ID];
Bids on a lot: [POST /bid/:LOT_ID];
List the bids of a lot: [GET /bid/:LOT_ID];
Delete a lot: [DELETE /lot/:LOT_ID].

The Problem

Standard practices say no non-root process gets to talk to the Internet on a port less than 1024. How, then, could I get Node talking on port 80 on EC2? (I wanted it to go as fast as possible and use the smallest possible share of my teeny tiny little micro-instance's resources, so proxying through nginx or Apache seemed suboptimal.)

The temptingly easy but ultimately wrong solution:

Alter the port the script talks to from 8000 to 80:

}).listen(80);

	try {
	/**
	* @typedef {Object} HeadingCache - Extends [CacheItem](https://docs.obsidian.md/Reference/TypeScript+API/CacheItem)
	* @see https://docs.obsidian.md/Reference/TypeScript+API/HeadingCache
	* @property {string} heading - The heading text.
	* @property {number} level - Heading level (1–6).
	* @property {number} position - Offset of this item in the note (inherited from CacheItem).
