- A book reading app acts as a book library showing you the list of your books on three different shelves (Want to Read, Currently Reading, Read).
- Each book has a selection button to change it's shelf based on the user's preference.
- The app has a search page that allows the user to look for new books using Udacity's BookAPI and add any book he likes to one of the three shelves available.
- The app was built using React library.
This is the first project in Udacity's Advanced Web Development course. the project was created using create-react-app but then used the starter template for the final assessment files to start working on the project.
To get started developing right away:
- install all project dependencies with
yarn install
- start the development server with
yarn start
To simplify your development process, we've provided a backend server for you to develop against. The provided file BooksAPI.js
contains the methods you will need to perform necessary operations on the backend:
Method Signature:
getAll()
- Returns a Promise which resolves to a JSON object containing a collection of book objects.
- This collection represents the books currently in the bookshelves in your app.
Method Signature:
update(book, shelf)
- book:
<Object>
containing at minimum anid
attribute - shelf:
<String>
contains one of ["wantToRead", "currentlyReading", "read"] - Returns a Promise which resolves to a JSON object containing the response data of the POST request
Method Signature:
search(query)
- query:
<String>
- Returns a Promise which resolves to a JSON object containing a collection of a maximum of 20 book objects.
- These books do not know which shelf they are on. They are raw results only. You'll need to make sure that books have the correct state while on the search page.
This project was bootstrapped with Create React App.
In the project directory, you can run:
Runs the app in the development mode.
Open https://localhost:3000 to view it in the browser.
The page will reload if you make edits.
You will also see any lint errors in the console.
Launches the test runner in the interactive watch mode.
See the section about running tests for more information.
Builds the app for production to the build
folder.
It correctly bundles React in production mode and optimizes the build for the best performance.
The build is minified and the filenames include the hashes.
Your app is ready to be deployed!
See the section about deployment for more information.
Note: this is a one-way operation. Once you eject
, you can’t go back!
If you aren’t satisfied with the build tool and configuration choices, you can eject
at any time. This command will remove the single build dependency from your project.
Instead, it will copy all the configuration files and the transitive dependencies (webpack, Babel, ESLint, etc) right into your project so you have full control over them. All of the commands except eject
will still work, but they will point to the copied scripts so you can tweak them. At this point you’re on your own.
You don’t have to ever use eject
. The curated feature set is suitable for small and middle deployments, and you shouldn’t feel obligated to use this feature. However we understand that this tool wouldn’t be useful if you couldn’t customize it when you are ready for it.
