This application takes in an input, casts it into a string (if current type is int or float) and returns every third element from the original string.
We use pipenv as a a dependency manager. Ensure that you have pipenv installed. If not, install using:
brew install pipenv
To upgrade pipenv:
brew upgrade pipenv
Clone this repo and cd into the directory
git clone [email protected]:cinxmo/modify_string.git dir-name && cd dir-name
Install all dependencies including ones required for dev
pipenv shell
pipenv install --dev
In a terminal, run:
uvicorn app.main:app --reload
To test the endpoint, in another terminal, run:
curl -X POST http://127.0.0.1:8000/test/ --data '{"string_to_cut": "iamyourlyftdriver"}' -H 'Content-Type: application/json'
The command above should return {"return_string":"muydv"}
Note:
The original endpoint https://lyft-interview-test.glitch.me/test does not accept integers as input data,
but this application does. For example, if we pass in the integer 123, it will return {"return_string":"3"} because
123 is casted as a string due to Pydantic, and 3 is the third element in "123"
curl -X POST http://127.0.0.1:8000/test/ --data '{"string_to_cut": 123}' -H 'Content-Type: application/json'
returns
{"return_string":"3"}
