Aura Code Challenge

This challenge will allow you demostrate your knowledge and understanding of node.js. It is intended to be familar, much like a development story that could come up on the job. After you submit the completed project, we will schedule a follow-up code-review.

The Story

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

Acceptance Criteria

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

Sample Zipcode Object

{
  "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"
}

Sample Events

{
  "httpMethod": "GET",
  "path": "/resource",
  "headers": {},
  "queryStringParameters": {
    "date": "2020-11-13"
  }
}

{
  "httpMethod": "POST",
  "path": "/resouce",
  "headers": {
    "content-type": "application/json"
  },
  "body": "{\"title\":\"hello world\"}"
}

Suggestions

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.
