Airbnb Clone

🫠 Description

Airbnb Clone is a comprehensive web application that replicates Airbnb's functionality, integrating database storage, a back-end API, and front-end interfacing. At present, the project focuses on implementing the back-end console.

🧑🏿‍💻 Classes

Airbnb utilizes various classes:

  • BaseModel: Represents the base model with attributes id, created_at, and updated_at.
  • FileStorage: Manages file storage and object serialization.
  • User: Inherits from BaseModel and includes attributes like email, password, first_name, and last_name.
  • State: Inherits from BaseModel with attributes like name.
  • City: Inherits from BaseModel with attributes state_id and name.
  • Amenity: Inherits from BaseModel with the name attribute.
  • Place: Inherits from BaseModel with numerous attributes like place_id, user_id, and more.
  • Review: Inherits from BaseModel with attributes place_id, user_id, and text.

Storage

These classes are managed by the abstracted storage engine defined in the FileStorage class. Upon initialization, Airbnb Clone creates an instance of FileStorage called storage, which loads and reloads data from file.json. As instances of classes are created, updated, or deleted, storage keeps the file.json file synchronized.

Airbnb Console

The Airbnb Console is a command-line interpreter used to manage the backend of Airbnb Clone. It allows for manipulation of all classes utilized by the application through calls to the storage object.

Console Usage

The Airbnb Console can be run interactively or non-interactively. In non-interactive mode, you can pipe commands into console.py, while in interactive mode, you directly run console.py.

Example (non-interactive mode):

$ echo "help" | ./console.py

Example (interactive mode):

$ ./console.py

Console Commands

The Airbnb Console supports various commands:

  • create: Creates a new instance of a given class.
  • show: Prints the string representation of a class instance based on an ID.
  • destroy: Deletes a class instance based on an ID.
  • all: Prints string representations of instances, either of a specific class or all classes.
  • count: Retrieves the number of instances of a given class.
  • update: Updates a class instance based on an ID with a given attribute or a dictionary of attributes.

Testing

Unit tests for the Airbnb Clone project can be found in the tests folder. You can run the entire test suite or specific test files using Python's unittest module.

To run the entire test suite:

$ python3 -m unittest discover tests

To run a specific test file:
