🐣 Introduction

Denzel Washington is one of my favorite actor.

He won 2 Oscars. Another 82 wins & 166 nominations

🎯 Objectives

Build a REST and GRAPHQL API to get the must-watch Denzel's movies.

👩‍💻 Just tell me what to do

Fork the project via `github`

Clone your forked repository project `https://github.com/YOUR_USERNAME/denzel`

❯ cd /path/to/workspace
❯ git clone git@github.com:YOUR_USERNAME/denzel.git

Do things

Commit and push your different modifications

❯ cd /path/to/workspace/denzel
❯ git add -A && git commit -m "feat(movies): get a random movie"
❯ git push origin master

Note:

why following a commit message convention?
if you catch an error about authentication, add your ssh to your github profile.
If you need some helps on git commands, read git - the simple guide

🏃‍♀️ Steps to do

Definition and Configuration

A must-watch movie is a movie with a metascore higher than 70.
API should listen locally the port 9292.
Data should be stored in MongoDB. Backed either with a DaaS: mLab, MongoDB Atlas etc... Either with a container Docker.
To test and check your API, you should use a client like Insomnia or Postman

REST endpoints to implement

`GET /movies/populate`

Populate the database with all the Denzel's movies from IMDb.

You could use the src/imdb.js ready-to-use exported function.

❯ curl -H "Accept: application/json" http://localhost:9292/movies/populate
{
  "total": 56
}

Start node sandbox.js for an usage example.

❯ node sandbox.js
📽️  fetching filmography of nm0000243...
🍿 56 movies found.

GraphQL endpoints to implement

Same definitions as REST API with /graphql endpoint.

Populate the database

Fetch a specific movie
Search for Denzel's movies
Save a watched date and a review.

(A suggested) Schema

schema {
  query Query
}

type Query {
  movies: [Movie]
  movie: Movie
}

type Movie {
  link: String
  metascore: Int
  synopsis: String
  title: String
  year: Int
}

❯ curl -d '{"query": "movie {link metascore synopsis title year}"}' -H "Content-Type: application/json" http://localhost:9292/graphql
{
  "data": {
    "movie": {
      "link": "https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0174856/?ref_=nm_flmg_act_23",
      "metascore": 74,
      "synopsis": "The story of Rubin \"Hurricane\" Carter, a boxer wrongly imprisoned for murder, and the people who aided in his fight to prove his innocence.",
      "title": "Hurricane Carter (1999)",
      "year": 1999
    }
  }
}

Bonus - The Client side

Build a client side web application.

The MVP definiton could be:

Each time, we open the web application or refresh the page, fetch a random must-watch movie and

display the title
display the synopsis
display the cover
display the metascore
display the review
allow to open the IMDb record
