SENNDER homework task

Run

• docker-compose up --build
• Go to localhost:8000/movies/ or localhost/films

Test

docker-compose run backend sh -c "coverage run --source '.' manage.py test && coverage report"

Notes

• Main endpoint is films/ (named as such to align with naming in external API), however, there is a redirect from movies/ to films/ to abide by task description
• API runs on port 80 for simplicity, but is 8000 is also exposed to abide by task description
• When accessing dicts if the key is required, then direct access is used, otherwise, get(). This is done on-purpose since not finding non-required keys is not a breaking error
• Tests access the external API, and thus are slow, the other choice would have been mocking the response
• Black is used for auto-formating, and runs through a PyCharm integration, however, PyCharm project settings are excluded from repo
