Rick and Morty Character Search by Name

rickandmortyapi/search-characters

Searches The Rick and Morty API for characters whose name contains the text you give, 20 per page, and returns the paging info (match count, page count, next and previous page links) with the characters on the requested page. A search with no match is a validation error rather than an empty page. Data from rickandmortyapi.com, served by Eden Engine; not an official Rick and Morty API product.
