Technologies

This toy application keeps all title metadata in memory, and manages it using raw JSON object manipulation. The server itself runs in Express 4.x on top of Node 4.x. The only other dependency is Lodash.

Running tests

docker run disney-challenge /usr/app/node_modules/mocha/bin/mocha

API Routes

CREATE

/api/v1/title/
METHOD: POST
PARAMETERS: Requires POST with Content-Type: application/json. The Post data must be a valid JSON describing the title to be created.

UPDATE

/api/v1/title/
METHOD: PUT
PARAMETERS: searchString (for title to replace), update (new value)

DELETE

/api/v1/title/
METHOD: DELETE
PARAMETERS: searchString

SEARCH

/api/v1/title/
METHOD: GET
PARAMETERS: searchString, type (optional)

Known Issues

Deleting a title currently results in an empty title being left in the metadata database.
Operations do not currently intelligently handle nested metadata-- for instance, calling DELETE on 'Season 1' will delete ALL matching results.
