The instructions below are the same as the code challenge you took Friday. However, now you're going to use the power of ActiveRecord to do the work for you! Your goal is to get the behavior of each deliverable working, and saved to the database. **Helpful hint: We've only scratched the surface of ActiveRecord. Before you code something out, do some Googling to see if something already exists!"
Fork and clone this lab to get started
For this assignment, we'll be working with a Yelp-style domain.
We have three models: Restaurant, Customer, and Review.
For our purposes, a Restaurant has many Reviews, a Customer has many Reviews, and a Review belongs to a Customer and to a Restaurant.
Restaurant - Customer is a many to many relationship.
Note: You should draw your domain on paper or on a whiteboard before you start coding. Remember to identify a single source of truth for your data.
To get started, run bundle install while inside of this directory.
Build out all of the methods listed in the deliverables. The methods are listed in a suggested order, but you can feel free to tackle the ones you think are easiest. Be careful: some of the later methods rely on earlier ones.
We've provided you with a tool that you can use to test your code. To use it, run ruby tools/console.rb from the command line. This will start a pry session with your classes defined. You can test out the methods that you write here. You can add code to the tools/console.rb file to define variables and create sample instances of your objects.
Write the following methods in the classes in the files provided. Feel free to build out any helper methods if needed.
Deliverables use the notation # for instance methods, and . for class methods.
Some of the methods listed are provided to you in the starter code. You should check that they work correctly, and that you understand them.
Customer#initialize- Customer should be initialized with a given name and family name, both strings (i.e., first and last name, like George Washington)"
Customer#given_name- returns the customer's given name
- should be able to change after the customer is created
Customer#family_name- returns the customer's family name
- should be able to change after the customer is created
Customer#full_name- returns the full name of the customer, with the given name and the family name concatenated, Western style.
Customer.all- returns all of the customer instances
Restaurant#initialize- Restaurants should be initialized with a name, as a string
Restaurant#name- returns the restaurant's name
- should not be able to change after the restaurant is created
Review#initialize- Reviews should be initialized with a customer, restaurant, and a rating (a number)
Review#rating- returns the rating for a restaurant.
Review.all- returns all of the reviews
Review#customer- returns the customer object for that review
- Once a review is created, should not be able to change the customer
Review#restaurant- returns the restaurant object for that given review
- Once a review is created, should not be able to change the restaurant
Restaurant#reviews- returns an array of all reviews for that restaurant
Restaurant#customers- Returns a unique list of all customers who have reviewed a particular restaurant.
Customer#restaurants- Returns a unique array of all restaurants a customer has reviewed
Customer#add_review(restaurant, rating)- given a restaurant object and a star rating (as an integer), creates a new review and associates it with that customer and restaurant.
Customer#num_reviews- Returns the total number of reviews that a customer has authored
Customer.find_by_name(name)- given a string of a full name, returns the first customer whose full name matches
Customer.find_all_by_given_name(name)- given a string of a given name, returns an array containing all customers with that given name
-
Restaurant#average_star_rating- returns the average star rating for a restaurant based on its reviews
- Reminder: you can calculate the average by adding up all the ratings and dividing by the number of ratings
Restaurant.order_by_name- Returns an array of restaurants sorted in alphabetical order b y their name
Customer.order_by_num_reviews- Returns an array of customers sorted in order by those with the most reviews to the fewest
