Tech-Assessment

  • Please complete all tasks outline in the tasks section below
  • There is no time limit
    • Generally, this assessment should take around 1 to 4 hours to complete.
    • You will not be graded on how long it takes you to complete it, but please be aware of the time expectation.
    • Estimating the amount of time it takes to complete a task is a common practice within our team
    • NOTE - The time estimation does not include installation or tasks marked as extra-credit
  • Tests are strongly encouraged
  • Not every change required is outlined in the tasks section
    • We want to see how you think through a problem
    • Some tasks require updating multiple files for that task to be completed
    • Don't be afraid to add, move, or change parts of the app. Show us what you can do
  • You are encouraged to show your work through comments
    • You don't have to comment every little change, but we would like to see your thought process
  • While styles, look, and feel are not a priority, the app should look decent

Prerequisites

Installation

  • Fork this repo
    • See the github docs on how to fork a repository if needed
  • Clone your forked version locally
    • Command: git clone https://github.com/<github-user-name>/keg-tech-assessment
    • Be sure to replace <github-user-name> with your own user name
  • Install the node_modules
    • Command: yarn install
  • Get the project running
    • Command: yarn start
      • This will start two servers; a Webpack server and an API server
      • To start them separately run the commands
        • yarn web - Webpack Server
        • yarn api - API Server

Tasks

  1. Setup the environment

    • Use the commands listed in the Installation section above
    • Open your browser to http://localhost:3000
      • It should load the test application
  2. Fix the error messages

    • Open your browser's inspector, to see all the errors on the page
    • In the following steps, you will be asked to implement features, marked by errors in the inspector. As you work on and complete each one, please remove the error message.
    • Once you have finished all the steps, there should be no errors showing in the browser's inspector
  3. Get Goat Facts

    • When clicking the Get Goat Facts button, it should call the onGetGoatFacts method
  4. Add Goat Facts JSON API

    • The server API has an endpoint that returns facts about goats when called
      • See the code in server/endpoints/goats.js
      • Goat Facts Endpoint
        • Method: GET
        • Path: /goats
    • Update the server code to ensure the /goats API endpoint is reachable
    • Next update the code in getGoatFacts.js
      • It should make a GET /goats call to the server API
      • It should return a json response with an array of goat facts under the data property
  5. Add Goat Facts to the Dom

    • After getting the goat facts from the server API in step 4
    • Update the code in addGoatFacts.js to do the following
      • Clear out any past goat facts under the ul#goat-facts-list element
      • Add each new goat fact to the dom as an li element
        • Each element should be a child of the ul#goat-facts-list element
  6. Alternative Facts

    • Add 2 new input elements to the dom
      • One should be for text
        • The text input should only allow a single word (i.e. No Spaces)
      • The other should be for numbers
        • The numbered input should only allow numbers
    • Update the code in filterGoatFacts.js to filter the goat facts with the following rules
      • The text input defines a word
      • The numbered input defines the index of that word within a sentence
      • Any goat fact that has a matching word at the defined index should be displayed
      • All non-matching goat facts should be hidden
        • For example, if the text input content is test, and the numbered input content is 3
        • Then only a sentence with the word test as the third word, would match
        • This test is lame => DOES NOT MATCH (should be hidden)
        • Doing this test is fun => DOES MATCH (should be displayed)
          • Test is the third word in this sentence, so it would match the above defined filter
    • When a word is entered into the text input, and a number is entered into the numbered input
      • Then the filterGoatFacts code should run
      • It should only display goat facts that match the defined inputs
      • All other goat facts should be hidden
      • If either or both text inputs are empty, all loaded goat facts should be displayed
  7. Dockerfile - extra credit

    • In the container folder there is a Dockerfile
    • Write a docker file for this application
      • You should be able to run the following commands successfully
        • yarn doc:build - Command should build the docker image
        • yarn doc:run - Command should run the docker image, starting the app within it
        • yarn doc:test - Command should complete without throwing any errors
          • Run this command in a separate terminal tab while the docker container is running
  8. Deploy to the Cloud - extra credit

    • How this is done is not important. It just needs to be accessible via the internet in some way
