#BC-9-JIBIZA

A project done in fullfillment of the application process for Andela Cohort 9

Why Jibiza? Jibiza is a swahili word meaning 'answer back' as translated into English. This formed the basis for why it was the name I settled for in regards to the Quiz Application project that I was assigned to accomplish.

Jibiza is a console based application that should be used to present questions with multiple choice questions that need be answered

The required commands for the application were:

Command Argument Explanation
quiz list None List of all the available quizzes in your library
quiz import <path_to_quiz_JSON> Import a new quiz from a JSON file
quiz take <quiz_name> Start taking a new quiz

The following requirements were also highlighted

  1. When a user takes a quiz he gets a score based on the answers he got right

  2. Timing can be added to quiz as a parameter in the JSON

  3. As a user I can import quizzes from JSON files

  4. Add in an online quiz repository using Firebase (extra credit)

  5. List all the online quizzes

  6. Download a quiz to your library

  7. Publish a local quiz to the online library

JSON Format for Quizzzes should contain the following keys:

  1. questions - List of questions in the quiz

  2. text - Question text

  3. options - List of options for the question

  4. .is_answer - Parameter of an option that can be true or false. Indicates whether or not that option is the correct answer.

  5. quiz take <quiz_name> - Start taking a new quiz
