##Spot Hero Backend Challenge

  • As per the requirements mentioned in the challenge doc.
  • Application will run on port 5000 (if running on Macos Monterey, stop sharing Airplay, using 5000 port)
  • Challenge implementation is in the GO language
    • Using the gorm library for object relationship mapping
    • Using the gorm sqlite library for database.
    • using the sqlmock library for test mocking.
    • using the mux library for rest endpoints routing.
    • Using the provided seeded data for rates.
  • Start the Application on port 5000 through main.go file.
  • Data is loaded into the rates.db, if needed to delete the file and application startup will load the data.
  • Test cases are present for price, rate endpoints and model.
  • Following are the sample endpoints results 

      curl http://localhost:5000/rates
  [{"days":"mon,tues,thurs","times":"0900-2100","tz":"America/Chicago","price":1500},{"days":"fri,sat,sun","times":"0900-2100","tz":"America/Chicago","price":2000},{"days":"wed","times":"0600-1800","tz":"America/Chicago","price":1750},{"days":"mon,wed,sat","times":"0100-0500","tz":"America/Chicago","price":1000},{"days":"sun,tues","times":"0100-0700","tz":"America/Chicago","price":925}]

  curl http://localhost:5000/price\?start\=2015-07-01T07:00:00-05:00\&end\=2015-07-01T12:00:00-05:00
  {"price":1750}

  curl http://localhost:5000/price\?start\=2015-07-04T15:00:00%2B00:00\&end\=2015-07-04T20:00:00%2B00:00
  {"price":2000}

  curl http://localhost:5000/price\?start\=2015-07-04T07:00:00%2B05:00\&end\=2015-07-04T20:00:00%2B05:00
  "unavailable"

Notes

  • ISO-8601 date pattern only has zone offset, hard to determine the timezon based on offset.
  • Price: 2000 test case is green because not considering different time zone offset, still considering America/Chicago
