#Frisco Flix A webapp which plots all the filming locations in San Francisco City based on movie title.

The data is loaded from DataSF: Filming Locations

The application is hosted in Open Shift Online @ Frisco Flix

#Technical Spec

##Back-end I chose a common and basic stack on the server side, have used Python+Flask+Sqlite for the back-end. Have also created REST API using Flask-Restful with json data as output. There are two REST API created

1. /Movies : This API will provide the list of all the movie titles

2. /GeoLocation : This API will provide the geolocation: lat, lng of the movie locations

Once the data is read from the SQLite DB, have used Werkzeug Simple Cache for storing the data in memory.

##Front-end I have used the following libraries

1. Jquery UI Auto-Complete : for displaying the Movie Titles as a type-head drop down

2. Jquery Async : for making AJAX calls to the REST API

3. JSON2 : for parsing the JSON data

4. Google Maps JavaScript API v3 : for plotting the filming locations in a map

##TO-DO ###Back-End

1. NOSQL like MongoDB for storing the data, since there is a lot of redundant data stored in sqlite
2. Define models and ORM for managing data in the NOSQL db

###Front-End

1. Async-defer loading of all the javascripts
2. Bundle & Minify all the javascripts loaded in the client
3. Move the inline-styles to a separate stylesheet

###Unit-Test

1. Unit Tests for JS code
2. Unit Tests for REST API calls

Housekeeping

1. Define jobs or admin pages which can load the data dynamically from the DATA SF API
