Architectural Assumptions

• Created the REST API service using microservice architecture approach
• User and Books CRUD operations is supported
• Each user's books borrowed list is saved in the User object
• Number of available copies is maintained in the Book object. if the available copy is 0, hence the book is not available
• Borrowing and return history of Users and Books is not supported
• User Authentication, registration and oAuth is not supported
• 80% of the code is developed with TDD

• Read the further instructions in README.md for running and testing the application using development server

End Points

• Versioning is supported and maintained using config.js

Development Assumptions and Issues

• At first, thought of hosting the backend in AWS, because of limited time, I could not able to do that
• Currently used local json for user stories development
• Followed the same Data model as MongoDB
• All the user stories are implemented
• For quick running, please follow Local Hosting Procedure
• only 40% of the code is developed with TDD

Local Hosting Procedure

There are two ways available for the local hosting procedure.

• Host using serve (https://github.com/vercel/serve) server for production-ready files
• Host using framework development server for source codes

Before doing local hosting, unzip the file and navigate to folder(simple-library-tdd) through terminal

cd simple-library-tdd

Host using serve server

• Production-ready application files are available in frontend/production-ready-app-files under dist folder
• Navigate there using following command

  cd frontend/production-ready-app-files

• Install serve using the following command

  npm install

• Run below command in the terminal and wait for the server to start

  npm run production-ready

• Application is available in http://localhost:8080

Host using framework development server

• Read the further instructions in README.md for running the application using development server

Source Code

• Source code files are available under src folder

Unit Test

• Unit test cases are available under tests folder
