Topcoder Skill Builder Competition : Angular with Automated Tester

Final Submission Guidelines

Judging Criteria

• Your submission will be reviewed immediately by Automated Tester and you will receive a score on the leaderboard based on the number of requirements you fulfil or test cases you pass. If you fulfil 6/7 requirements you will get 6/7*100 = 85.71. 
• In case you don't see a score, make sure you understand the submission guidelines. Also, look for Artifacts and Logs in Submission-Review to know more about your submission. You can also discuss in the challenge forum for any issues.
• About your submission review:
  • Collaborating/Cheating in any way with anyone else (member or not) during a rated event is considered cheating.
  • An excessive amount of unused content should be avoided.
  • Code Readability is expected with necessary comments, indentation and somewhat refactored code (as much as possible)

Submission Guidelines:

You must follow this submission folder structure so our automated test process can process your scoring:

• Create a folder with “code” as the folder name then zip. 
• Inside the “code” folder, there needs to be a file named Dockerfile. This is the docker file used to build the user’s submission. Refer to the provided Docker file in Sample Submission for each level.
• Zip that “code” folder and submit to the challenge.

Execution Details and Submission Logs

Each time you submit, the platform will leverage Docker to run your code. The execution logs will be saved as “Artifacts” that can be downloaded from the Submission Review App: https://submission-review.topcoder.com/.

Checking Passing and Failing Test Cases

Using the Submission Review App (https://submission-review.topcoder.com/), navigate to the specific challenge, then to your submission, and then to the Artifacts for your submission. The zip file you download will contain information about your submission including a result.json file with the test results.

Docker Structure

Make sure you can run your submission with Docker from a clean slate.

Your Docker needs to expose port: 8080
It needs to build on a completely clean machine when the platform runs your submission. If you are using something locally to build and run your submission, make sure it’s included as part of your Docker configuration as well.

Example Dockerfile for Node app for Angular submission:

FROM node:alpine AS build
WORKDIR /usr/src/app
COPY package*.json ./
RUN npm install
COPY . .
RUN npm run build

FROM nginx:alpine
RUN rm -rf /usr/share/nginx/html/*
COPY --from=build /usr/src/app/dist/topcoder-learning-angular/ /usr/share/nginx/html
COPY nginx.conf /etc/nginx/conf.d/default.conf
EXPOSE 8080
ENTRYPOINT ["nginx", "-g", "daemon off;"]

Especially for Angular submission we need include nginx.conf to expose the port 8080:

server {
  listen 8080;

  location / {
    root /usr/share/nginx/html;
    index index.html index.htm;
    try_files $uri$args $uri$args/ $uri $uri/ /index.html =404;
  }
}
