Guid Tracker

This is an API for storing data by GUID. It stores the data in a relational DB (configureable) and uses redis as a cache.

I chose to go with a new framework, FastAPI (which builds off of Starlette), which is a fully asyncronous framework that leverages python's new typehints for generating Swagger documentation.

Run

First, you'll want to clone the repo. The codebase is using pipenv, so go install w/ pipenv. In pipenv, we're using a custom command serve.

Once the server is running, you should be able to load http://127.0.0.1:8000. This will display the swagger docs for the endpoint.

# Clone the repo & go into it.
git clone https://github.com/nwcell/ir_talent.git
cd ir_talent

# We're using pipenv, so install using that.
pipenv install

# Copy the .env.dist to .env, the dev server will grab envs from here
# You'll want to update the .env to point to your redis instance & db
cp .env.dist .env

# Run migration if you haven't already.
pipenv run migrate

# Run things and navigate to http://127.0.0.1:8000 for the API specs.
pipenv run serve

Test

The tests are integration tests. They use sqlite for the db & a memory cache (instead of redis) for the cache.

pipenv install -d
pipenv run test
