This program is designed to tell you if your convoy has enough fuel for a long voyage or not. A convoy is basically a collection of vehicles traveling together, usually in a military or humanitarian capacity inside unsafe territory. This convoy here consists of about 8 United Nations (UN) vehicles carrying humanitarian aid into south-western Syria during the civil war in that country.
The convoy is being led by a gas-guzzling Armored Personnel Carrier (APC) proving protection against armed groups followed by 5 (somewhat) more fuel-efficient SUV's and then 2 gas-guzzling mid-sized cargo trucks in the rear. It can be assumed that such a convoy will not have gas stations available to stop at, and thus, will have to carry enough fuel to get in and out of the war zone safely. This means that certain trucks will carry gas canisters that will be used to re-fuel the other vehicles in the convoy. This program will tell you how much of that extra gas you will need to bring along in order to complete the trek by considering the following variables:
- The miles-per-gallon fuel consumption for each individual vehicle
- The type of terrain you are traveling on (paved road, dirt road, or off road)
- The elevation gain or loss of the terrain you are traversing
- The total distance you will be traveling
An illustration of this work-space is available here that shows all of the major relationships between key elements of the program:
This illustration is in "map" orientation which means that the code is arranged by how it occurs within a stack rather than where it occurs within a particular sequence of code being executed. That said, the sequencing of the 3 different different user login strategies are illustrated as shown in the bottom right-hand corner of the diagram, at the very bottom of the SYMBOL LEGEND. These 3 strategies are:
- A user can login in as a returning user.
- A user can login as a new or returning user with their GitHub account using OmniAuth
- A user can sign up as a new user by providing a username, email address, and password.
This program was meant to fulfill the requirements for the Rails Portfolio Project of the Flatiron School's Online Web App Development Program. The objective here is to demonstrate the backend development of a Ruby on Rails app that includes a basic, vanilla frontend set of views with wich to interface with the app. The project is meant to demonstrate knowledge of these key areas:
- RESTful URL routes and even nested routes
- Many-to-many object relationships
- Secure user login and permissions
- ActiveRecord queries
A complete list of project requirements can be foind in the `spec.md` file in this repository's main directory.
