Challenge Objectives

• As part of this challenge, you will build the base code for our new V5 Challenge Resource API.

• You need to build all endpoints from the provided Swagger definition.

Tech Stack

• Node.js

• Express.js

• AWS DynamoDB

Project Background

In this series of challenges, we will build the version 5 (V5) of the Challenge engine API and all related microservices to support it.

Detailed requirements

1. You need to implement all endpoints from the provided Swagger definition (attached on the challenge forum).

2. You need to create positive + negative POSTMAN tests for all endpoints.

3. You need to support M2M tokens. We should be able to call the API using both member JWT and M2M tokens.

4. You need to create unit and E2E tests.

 

Use this library for the M2M tokens https://github.com/appirio-tech/tc-core-library-js

Important notes

• Currently, the /v5/challenges/{id} endpoint does not exist thus you need to mock it for this challenge. This can be a very simple express server with hardcoded challenge IDs. This needs to be provided as a separate project and you will not be scored for its code quality. It’s just for testing.

• Both the Swagger file and your code should comply to our V5 API Standards (PDF attached on the challenge forum).

• Performance and stability are very critical.

 

Should you have any questions, feel free to ask on the challenge forum!

Documentation

You need to create a detailed README.md file that will describe the following:

• Prerequisites.

• Instructions on how to configure the API.

• Instructions on how to run the API locally.

• Instructions on how to run the API using an AWS DynamoDB.

• Any other information that will be useful in future development.

What to Submit
