Online Grocery Store Mock Site

Pre-requites

• python 2.7
• Django 1.4

Setup Environment

• Install pip
  • sudo apt-get install python-pip
• Install django
  • sudo pip install django=1.4
• Install git
  • sudo apt-get install git

Setup Application

• Checkout Instacart-Shopping-Challenge from github

  • git clone https://github.com/osg9c1/Instacart-Shopper-Challenege.git
  • cd Instacart-Shopper-Challenege/instacart

• add the development.sqlite3 to Instacart-Shopping-Challenge/instacart/, as the size of the file is larger than 100MB so I wasn't able to push to github.

• python manage.py syncdb

• python manage.py runserver

Apps:

I have created 2 separate apps for each part of the problem, each with its own model, views and templates.

Shopper Applicants

local setup link : http://localhost:8000/instacart/shoppers Here is the heroku link for the app : http://hidden-brushlands-72379.herokuapp.com/instacart/shoppers/

Applicant Analysis

local setup link: http://localhost:8000/instacart/applicant_analysis

Since the development.sqlite3 file was greater than 100MB, I wasn't able to push it to git and 
hence heroku, so it needs to be  run locally 

Trade off: In the Applicants model, I would have modeled it with workflow_state as an IntegerField with choices as <applied,quiz_started,quiz_completed,onboarding_requested,onboarding_completed,hired,rejected >, to make the query faster as interger comparisons are faster than string comparisons
