Tasks

1. Add a new method which searches for a substring in the post-messages:

ChatroomService.getFilteredPosts(String searchText)

2. Add a CreatedTimestamp field to post and filter posts from newest to oldest, as returned from ChatroomService.getPosts().

3. Make TeacherStudentRoom : Where a particular teacher and a particular student can have a one-on-one chat.

This should involve service and model changes. Please add unit tests.

Add some sample conversation lines between the teacher and the student in the "main" method.

In addition to the current output, also print out the messages in the new one-on-one chat. Format ": ". Before the one-on-one chat messages, output "One-on-one Chat Room:". Put it between the "Messages:" and "Users:" sections.

Bonus: Refactor the existing code in a couple ways to make it cleaner.

4. Remember to commit and push your final work. Notify us that it is ready.
