NASA's Picture Of The Day Downloader

A service that fetches a picture of the day from NASA's API with an ability to get an image by date and info about all images stored.

Usage

Setup:

• Create a .env file in the repo directory using env.example. Make sure you've set all the variables. Even tho the app itself has it's own default values in case of missing envs, docker-compose however needs all required values.

• If you are going to abuse nasa api somehow, create an API key at https://api.nasa.gov/ to avoid rate limits. But the default key is set in the app just in case. 1 rph is a default behaviour.

• Run make run. Migration will apply automatically. After that the service will make an initial image download from NASA's api.

The app has two available endpoints:

• Get image by date: http://localhost:8080/image?date={{YYYY-MM-DD}}

  NOTE: the date should be the following format: `"YYYY-MM-DD"``, and there are obviously no images from the future.

• Get album of stored images: http://localhost:8080/album

  Shows a rendered html table with stored images info and links.

Running tests

• Run make db
• In separate terminal window run make test
• Run make stop after tests finish
