Our apps need to query and store lots of information. We want to make sure that you have a good understanding of JavaScript and Node.js fundamentals. Can you build a simple API that can read data from and write data to a PostgreSQL database with Node.js?
Build a REST API that will allow Polycade to manage pricing individually on machines remotely with the following:
- Endpoints
- GET
/pricing-models- returns all of the pricing models available for the system
- also returns the default pricing model in
prices.json
- POST
/pricing-models- creates a new pricing model in the system
- returns the ID of the new pricing model to the caller
- GET
/pricing-models/:pm-id- get an individual pricing model
- include the price configurations for the pricing model
- if the pricing model isn't found by
pm-idit responds with not found
- PUT
/pricing-models/:pm-id- updates an existing pricing model meta-data
- does not affect the pricing configurations for the pricing model
- GET
/pricing-models/:pm-id/prices- returns the prices configured for a specific pricing model
- GET
Note: Assumed 'not found' when the pricing model isn't found by
pm-id
- POST
/pricing-models/:pm-id/prices- adds a new price configuration for a pricing model
- DELETE
/pricing-models/:pm-id/prices/:price-id- removes a price configuration from a pricing model
- if the pricing model isn't found by
pm-idit responds with not found - if the price configuration isn't found by
price-idit responds with not found
- PUT
/machines/:machine-id/prices/:pm-id- sets the pricing model for an individual machine to the one from
pm-id - if the machine already has a pricing model, it is replaced by this one
- if the machine isn't found by
machine-idit responds with not found - if the pricing model isn't found by
pm-idit responds with not found
- sets the pricing model for an individual machine to the one from
- DELETE
/machines/:machine-id/prices/:pm-id- removes the pricing model from the machine (unsets it)
- GET
/machines/:machine-id/prices- return the pricing model and price configurations set for a given machine
- if the machine does not have a pricing model configured then the default model from
prices.jsonis returned - if the machine isn't found by
machine-idit responds with not found
- Tests
- Each endpoint should have its own test
