Angular2-HttpClient-Tutorial ​| Open Banking ​Assignment - which developed using Halifax openbanking API and Angular2 framework

Requirements

• Users should be able to view a list of the bank’s branches
  
• Users should be able to filter the list of branches by city name
  
• Clicking on a branch in the list should show the following additional details about the branch that was clicked:
  
  • Branch name
    
  • Full address
    
  • Phone number
    
• Data should be obtained from the Halifax API. Documentation and endpoint information is available here: https://developer.halifax.co.uk/opendata-v2.2#get-branches-2.2

Getting Started

To get you started you can simply clone the Angular2-HttpClient-Tutorial repository and install the dependencies:

Prerequisites

You need git to clone the Angular2-HttpClient-Tutorial repository.

We also use a number of Node.js tools to initialize and test Angular2-HttpClient-Tutorial. You must have Node.js and its package manager (npm) installed.

Clone Angular2-HttpClient-Tutorial

Clone the Angular2-HttpClient-Tutorial repository using git:

git clone https://github.com/shahumang23/Angular2-HttpClient-Tutorial.git
cd Angular2-HttpClient-Tutorial

Install Dependencies

We have two kinds of dependencies in this project: tools and Angular framework code. The tools help us manage and test the application.

• We get the tools we depend upon via npm, the Node package manager.

npm install

After that, you should find out that you have below new folders in your project.

• node_modules - contains the npm packages for the tools we need

Run the Application

We have preconfigured the project with a simple development web server. The simplest way to start this server is:

npm start

Now browse to the app at [http://localhost:9000/].

Running Unit Tests

The Angular2-HttpClient-Tutorial app comes preconfigured with unit tests. These are written in Jasmine, which we run with the Karma test runner. We provide a Karma configuration file to run them.

• The configuration is found at karma.conf.js.
• The unit tests are found next to the code they are testing and have an spec.js suffix (e.g. controller.spec.js).

The easiest way to run the unit tests is to use the supplied npm script:

npm test

This script will start the Karma test runner to execute the unit tests. Moreover, Karma will start watching the source and test files for changes and then re-run the tests whenever any of them changes. This is the recommended strategy; if your unit tests are being run every time you save a file then you receive instant feedback on any changes that break the expected code functionality.
