About This Application
Time To Complete: 3 Hour, 30 mins For the most part I kept the entire application's structure extremely simple, and just used a single resolver hooked up to a standard Apollo Server. As I have been working with AppSync a lot over the past few months at my current job, I found that it was easier to just use the TypeDefs here to enforce server-side validation.
Most of the time on this project was researching how the whole polygon factor worked. I took the mathematical approach instead of using an API online. Using the point-in-polygon package made this super easy, and I was able to just use some vim macros to convert the kml layer into usable data to be able to referencea polygon framework-agnostically.
I did build in a simple redundancy in turning the API into an array with a reduce function over the available delivery areas. The reasons I did this, was because due to future consideration for expansion of the API, it's a safe assumption that we would probably have multiple overlays with different information in the future.
Anyways, I had a lot of fun writing this!
Accessing graphql client
There is actually a graphql client running on port 4000, you can test all of my results via the API only by using the following graphql query:
{
getLocation(address: "Ungargasse 17, Vienna, Austria") {
status
deliveryAreas
locationData {
placeId
formattedAddress
}
}
}
