What we want you to build

We have provided you with Pokemon data in a json file. Your mission is to create a database and expose the database to an API. Basically, you need to:

  • Design the database to store information for the Pokemon data
  • Load the database with the data
  • Implement the API Interface with the following features:
    • Query pokemons with the options:
      • Pagination
      • Search by name
      • Filter by pokemon type
      • Filter by favorite
    • Query a pokemon by id
    • Query a pokemon by name
    • Query list of pokemon types
    • Mutation to mark/unmark pokemon as favorite
  • Test are important and if time allows it, we'd like to see some test coverage

Technology

Remember that our technology stack is:

  • Node.js (Typescript, Fastify)
  • GraphQL (Nexus)
  • PostgreSQL (Objection.js)

You can use the framework that you prefer, but please write the challenge in JS or TS. You can choose PostgreSQL / MongoDB like database, be free but take in consideration the best database to store the data.
