Computer Application

Overview

This Computer application is built using Java 10, Spring Boot, Angular 6, Spring Data JPA, Docker, SWAGGER, NGINX and Bootstrap.

Quick start

To run the project execute

docker-compose up

This will pull the pre-built images from Docker Hub for the computer-service and computer-ui and run it in docker. The UI runs on the NGINX web server in Docker.

Navigate to: http://localhost to access the Angular UI application Navigate to: http://localhost:8080/swagger-ui.html to access the backend API through SWAGGER

Tests

You can run all unit and integration tests by executing

mvn clean verify

Some Implementation Details

I implemented edit and delete for computer resources in the backend API as well as in the UI for completeness although they were not mentioned in the test spec.

Useful Commands

A run.sh Bash script has been written to provide useful commands for the project. It is executed in the following way:

./run.sh {build|start|stop|run|push|logs}

• build: build the backend service, UI and build the docker images

• start: start the docker containers

• stop: stop and remove the docker containers

• run: build and start

• push: push the images to Docker Hub

• logs: shows log output from docker containers

TODO

• For the backend, implement pure unit tests mocking out dependencies. The controller tests in this project were integration tests
• Implement unit tests for the UI
• Use HATEOAS for REST
• Implement validation for the IP and MAC address format in the API and UI
• UX improvements - get confirmation before deleting computer
• Add logging
