requests-dashboard

This is a simple web application that shows requests for an api over time.

Prerequisites

• Docker
• Docker Compose

Build and run

cd into project directory and run:

docker-compose up --build

Usage

There are 4 different endpoints for GET, POST, PUT and DELETE requests. They are

• http://127.0.0.1:8000/api/get/
• http://127.0.0.1:8000/api/post/
• http://127.0.0.1:8000/api/put/
• http://127.0.0.1:8000/api/delete/

respectively. You can use a command line tool like httpie to perform requests. Example:

http PUT http://127.0.0.1:8000/api/put/
http http://127.0.0.1:8000/api/get/

The dashboard is available at http://127.0.0.1:8080. Note that its port is different even though it's same application. You can continue using port 8000 if you want but it will cause dashboard to freeze when you perform requests because the application sleeps before responding to the requests.

• Getting the challenge content: You can find the code that I wrote to get the challenge content inside challenge_content. It's is not the best code but it gets the job done and I won't ever use it anymore so it's OK.

• Sometimes producer and consumer doesn't start. It seems to occur randomly when the project is first built. I couldn't fix this because there is no log at docker logs producer, and I don't know a way to reproduce this every time. As a workaround, you can re-run the build command if this happens to you.
