D4i movies app

In this project-based React we will practice:

1. React components lifecycle
2. ESLint (configuration and rules)
3. React-Redux (configuration and lifecycle)
4. Typescript (configuration and refator from js)

Introduction

We have an initial structure of an app that should show the movies to the user. We have dependencies between the 3 lists. The dependencies are as follows:

1. Year
2. Genres
3. Movies

Tasks

We should implement the next functionalities:

1. When user enter to the app, show the list of available Years to filter
2. When user selects a Year, show the Genres for this year
3. When user selects a Genre, show the movies for the selected Year and Genre
4. When user selects a Movie, show the detail for this movie

The user can click in "Clear button" and all the filters has to be cleared. When user changes a selection, the dependent options should be cleared, for example: *If user change the "year", the "genre" and "movie" selected should be cleared".

We have to replicate the next layout:

Endpoints

When you run the command "yarn run server" you publish a "typecode/json-server" API in your http://localhost:3000. You can find documentation for this tool in the URL: https://github.com/typicode/json-server

To get all the needed data for this project, you can use this API tool. For example, you can GET all the Genres in the next URL:

http://localhost:3000/genres

And get the genre with id 28 with the next URL:

http://localhost:3000/genres?id=28

For more examples, see the json-server documentation.

NOTES:

In this app, we only have to recover the initial lists (movies, genres and years) and filter this in each component with lodash plugin (https://lodash.com).

In "movie" model, we have a field named "poster_path" to show poster image to user. To load image correctly, you've to concatenate this field with the next "base url":

https://image.tmdb.org/t/p/POSTER_PATH_FIELD

Initialize the project

Environment

The project needs an environment file. Create a .env file in the root folder of the project.

// .env
ANALYZER=false
BUILD_PATH=./dist

The BUILD_PATH variable it's necessary to work correctly. This variable indicates the directory of build files.

The ANALYZER variable indicates if is necessary observe the bundle for analyze the size of plugins and code. This variable is optional.

Install the project dependencies

> yarn install

Run server

You can run the app (front + back) with the next instruction:

> yarn run start

You can run the backend API with the next instruction:

> yarn run server

Optionaly, you can build the project and output files with the above instructions, having the option to add the watch instruction.

> yarn run dev:watch
> yarn run pro:watch
> yarn run test:watch

Build files

Optionaly, you can build the project and output files with the above instructions, having the option to add the watch instruction.

> yarn run dev:watch
> yarn run pro:watch
> yarn run test:watch

You can also execute a very special instruction 💥😆

> yarn run build-gates

Unit testing

For pass the unit testing.

> yarn run test

If you need the coverage for the unit testing.

> yarn run test:coverage
