This challenge will allow you demonstrate your knowledge and understanding of node.js. It is intended to be familiar, much like a development story that could come up on the job.
Create a lambda-like handler function that can query zip code data in various ways
- handler function is already bootstrapped in
src/index.js
- handler is invoked with events (see below) as would come from API Gateway
- it is
async
and should return an array or throw an error - the dataset to be searched is included in the
src/data.json
file - look at the data and decide how best to utilize it
- design and define zipcode api
- implement zipcode api handler
- search by full or partial zipcode
- search by full or partial city name
- search by closest latitude/longitude
- filter by additional attributes
{
"zip": "01230",
"type": "STANDARD",
"primary_city": "Great Barrington",
"acceptable_cities": "Egremont, Gt Barrington, N Egremont, New Marlboro, New Marlborou, New Marlborough, North Egremont, Simons Rock",
"unacceptable_cities": "Alford, Berkshire Heights, Hartsville, Risingdale, Van Deusenville",
"state": "MA",
"county": "Berkshire County",
"timezone": "America/New_York",
"area_codes": "413",
"latitude": "42.19",
"longitude": "-73.35",
"country": "US",
"estimated_population": "5873"
}
{
"httpMethod": "GET",
"path": "/resource",
"headers": {},
"queryStringParameters": {
"date": "2020-11-13"
}
}
{
"httpMethod": "POST",
"path": "/resouce",
"headers": {
"content-type": "application/json"
},
"body": "{\"title\":\"hello world\"}"
}
- Spend as much or as little time as you wish on this challenge.
- Many implementation details are up to you, be prepared to explain your decisions.
- Details matter, but you should strive to provide a complete feature.
- Use any node packages you want, just remember we want to know what you can do.
- Consider how you can show how your feature should work, and prove that it does work.
- this bundle contains a git repository
- work locally, commit changes
- push to your own git service
- share the repository link with us
