AskNicely Engineer Test

Requirements

• NodeJs >= 18.x
• Npm >= 8.x

Run the backend

• Rename ~/.env.example to .env
• Run docker-compose up -d
• Go inside the container docker exec -it app bash
• Once inside the container, run composer install
• Exit the app container, type exit

Seed DATABASE schema

• It is important that the docker containers are running. Run docker ps to check
• If database is running, run the database migration with docker exec -it database bash
• Once inside the database container, run psql -h localhost -d homestead -U postgres -f employees.sql
• Exit the DB container, type exit

Run the frontend

• Go to ~/frontend
• Install libraries, run npm install
• Run npm run dev
• Go to http://127.0.0.1:5173/

Run unit test

• Go inside the container docker exec -it app bash
• Run unit test with composer test

Suggestion

• With unlimited time, the database connection can be abstracted more into its own configurations
• Add ability to create migration files like the famous PHP frameworks
• Process the data inside a controller instead of directly in the route file inside anonymous function

Notes

• Used Simple PHP Router for handling routing
• Used Rakit Validation for validation of post data
