Recipe_site

Back end for Recipe site. This is a Django-PostgreSQL project.

Recipe site development and testing

Abstract

This page describes how to quickly get the set of services comprising the backend up and running for development and testing.

Preconditions

Install latest Docker and Docker Compose. Currently tested platforms

  • Docker 17.04.0+
  • Docker Compose 1.10.0+
  • Ubuntu (16.04+) and MAC OS X 10.11+

If you are using a Linux machine then make sure to add your computer user to the docker group.

Checkout the Github repo

git clone https://github.com/jbernal0019/Recipe_site.git

Instantiate Recipe site

Start Recipe site from the repository source directory by running the make bash script:

./docker-make.sh

All the steps performed by the above script are properly documented in the script itself.

After running this script all the automated tests should have successfully run and a Django development server should be running in interactive mode in this terminal.

Playing with the REST API

This API uses the standard Collection+JSON hypermedia type to exchange resource representations with clients. All the functionality provided by the API can be discovered by clients by doing GET requests to links (hrefelements) presented by the hypermedia documents returned by the web server, starting with the API’s “home page”. As such the amount of required human-readable documentation is greatly minimized. The only non-standard property that I have added to the hypermedia document format is total which gives the total number of items across all API pages.

The API’s “home page” relative url is: /api/v1/ which serves a list of recipes.

A simple unauthenticated GET request:

Using curl:

curl https://localhost:8080/api/v1/

Using HTTPie REST API client:

http https://localhost:8080/api/v1/

Create a new user to be able to make authenticated requests:

Using curl:

curl -XPOST -H 'Content-Type: application/vnd.collection+json' -H 'Accept: application/vnd.collection+json' -d '{"template":{"data":[{"name":"username","value":"user"}, {"name":"email","value":"[email protected]"}, {"name":"password","value":"user1234"}]}}' 'https://localhost:8080/api/v1/users/'

Using HTTPie REST API client:

http POST https://localhost:8080/api/v1/users/ template:='{"data":[{"name":"username","value":"user"}, {"name":"email","value":"[email protected]"}, {"name":"password","value":"user1234"}]}' Content-Type:application/vnd.collection+json Accept:application/vnd.collection+json

A simple POST request to create a new recipe:

Using curl:

curl -u user:user1234 -XPOST -H 'Content-Type: application/vnd.collection+json' -H 'Accept: application/vnd.collection+json' -d '{"template":{"data":[{"name":"name","value":"recipe1"}]}}' 'https://localhost:8080/api/v1/'

Using HTTPie REST API client:

http -a user:user1234 POST https://localhost:8080/api/v1/ template:='{"data":[{"name":"name","value":"recipe1"}]}' Content-Type:application/vnd.collection+json Accept:Application/vnd.collection+json

A simple PUT request to update an existing recipe:

Using curl:

curl -u user:user1234 -X PUT -H 'Content-Type: application/vnd.collection+json' -H 'Accept: application/vnd.collection+json' -d '{"template":{"data":[{"name":"name","value":"New name"}]}}' 'https://localhost:8080/api/v1/1/'

Using HTTPie REST API client:

http -a user:user1234 PUT https://localhost:8080/api/v1/1/ template:='{"data":[{"name":"name","value":"New name"}]}' Content-Type:application/vnd.collection+json Accept:application/vnd.collection+json

A simple POST request to add a new ingredient to an existing recipe:

Using curl:

curl -u user:user1234 -XPOST -H 'Content-Type: application/vnd.collection+json' -H 'Accept: application/vnd.collection+json' -d '{"template":{"data":[{"name":"text","value":"Ingredient1"}]}}' 'https://localhost:8080/api/v1/1/ingredients/'

Using HTTPie REST API client:

http -a user:user1234 POST https://localhost:8080/api/v1/1/ingredients/ template:='{"data":[{"name":"text","value":"Ingredient1"}]}' Content-Type:application/vnd.collection+json Accept:application/vnd.collection+json
