Challenge Overview
In this challenge we are looking for a microservice wrapper over Google Places API. The goal is to develop a sample microservice that will have two features:
1. Search places based on users location or search string (should be implemented as two separate endpoints)
2. Get detailed information about a speciffic place including user reviews and images
Service should be developed using Spring Boot, latest stable version. Service should produce daily logs with all requests/responses/errors persisted to log files. Unit tests, swagger and postman file are required. Annotations are preferred over xml configuration where possible.
Deployment
Create a Docker image for the microservice. Image should have just the minimal environment and should start only the app process (so don't make the entrypoint be a bash shell). Application code should be embeded into the image, and not mapped as a volume. Service logs directories should be mapped to a directory on the host.
Include instructions for deploying the service locally (both with docker and within development environment), and Heroku (docker)
Final Submission Guidelines
1) Document explaining step by step Configuration on Google API
2) Microservice
3) Verification guide
