Backend Coding Challenge

Description

This project aims to create a backend solution for a web application. It consists of several parts, each focusing on different functionalities.

Part 1

  • Implement a global prefix /api to be used throughout the API.

Part 2

  • Implement a login endpoint, /api/auth/login, which allows users to authenticate and returns a valid JWT token upon successful login.
  • The JWT access token should have a validity of 120 seconds only and should contain the following payload: userId and username.

Part 3

  • Implement two resources, namely customers and products, along with their respective endpoints.
  • These endpoints should be protected, and users need to pass an authorization token in the headers to consume them.
  • Use mock data provided in the /Mocks/ directory as the data source.

Part 4

  • Write test cases for your controllers and services to ensure the reliability of your code.

Endpoints

  • Login: /api/auth/login
  • Customers: /api/auth/customers
  • Products: /api/auth/products

Impress us

If you wish to make a lasting impression, consider completing the following tasks. While these tasks are optional, they will be taken into consideration and may reduce technical questions during the evaluation process:

  • Organize your project structure in a well-structured and clear manner.
  • Add comments to your code for better understanding and maintainability.
  • Implement rate limiting to control the rate of API requests.
  • Write unit tests to ensure the robustness of your code.
  • Provide Docker and Docker Compose support for easier deployment.

Feel free to use your creativity and showcase your skills throughout the project! Good luck!
