If you are reading this, you probably have interviewed or chatted with someone on the team at Rnters. This is our standard "toy" project we normally like to work on together to see how you think about problems, model them, and make decisions. If you stumbled upon this project randomly and want to give it a shot, please feel free to fork the project and hack away. We would love to see what you come up with.
An initial version of this project should be doable in well under 2 hours, but has many facets that could be improved beyond that inital cut. And although we are providing you with most of the boilerplate so you can focus on the requested functionalities, it has many facets that could be improved beyond that initial cut.
We are looking for an API-based application that exposes an API entry to create users with a first and last name. The twist - after 30seconds that user will grow a mustache, and the 🥸 emoji will be added to his last name. E.g. if I create the user "Quim Barreiros", after 30 seconds I will see that his name is "Quim Barreiros 🥸". Thats it!
User table should have the following attributes:
first_namelast_nameadmin
Should have the following endpoint:
POST /api/v1/userswith the paramsfirst_nameandlast_name- Should return
202 (Created)if successful and the appropriate error otherwise
You'll need to have Docker installed. Fork and clone this repo into your computer.
After that you can simply run the web version so you can use curl: docker-compose up
Or you can run the console version: docker-compose run --rm console
We provide you with a simple test by running:
$ docker-compose run --rm console
> rspec spec/request/user_spec.rb
You can also run the environment and curl against it
$ docker-compose up web
# in another terminal
$ curl -v -X POST 'http://127.0.0.1:8000/api/v1/users' -d '{"first_name": "Quim", "last_name": "Barreiros" }' -H "Content-Type: application/json"
