Senior Enrichment Project

Make a thing!

Getting started

1. Fork and clone this repo
2. Set the name of your project in package.json. The skeleton intentionally ships with an invalid name.
3. npm install
4. Check out the mock-view in the wireframes folder
5. Start the build process and your application with: npm run start:dev
6. If you navigate to the URL you should see some UI already :) [We already have some connection code to get you started]

Requirements

The Premise

You are the CTO of the Margaret Hamilton Interplanetary Academy of JavaScript. Create a RESTful web platform that allows you to manage your students and campuses.

The tools

Use at least Sequelize, Express and React when creating this app. This app is small, so just using React is reasonable, but note that without practicing with more frontend libraries you will have a steep learning curve in senior phase. If you are going forward with just React you will benefit from deleting all references to React-Redux, Redux and React-Router (so you don't confuse yourself with trying to use something in half your files and not the other half).

If you feel ready, start by incorporating React-Router, Redux and React-Redux (we helped get you started with this!)! If you go this route, it will be great practice and will prepare you well for senior phase.

DB Design

• Students

  • have profile info including:
    • firstName - not empty or null
    • lastName - not empty or null
    • email - not empty or null; valid email
    • gpa - decimal between 0.0 and 4.0
  • must have a virtual 'name' field which is the concatenation of firstName and lastName
  • must be assigned to a campus

• Campuses

  • have profile info including:
    • name - not empty or null
    • imageUrl - default value
    • description - extremely large text
  • can have many students assigned (may have none)

Views and Functionality

See Wireframes folder for visual

• Navigation: as a user I...

  • will land on Home by default
  • can navigate to Campuses from Home
  • can navigate to Students from Home
  • can navigate to view a Single Campus from Campuses
  • can navigate to view a Single Student from Students
  • can navigate to view a Single Student from Single Campus (for any student at that campus)
  • can navigate to view that student's Single Campus from Single Student

• Views: as a user I...

  • see a list of all campuses on the Campuses view
  • see a list of all students on the Students view
  • see details about a campus on the Single Campus view, including that campus's students
  • see details about a student on the Single Student view, including that student's campus

• Actions: as a user I...

  • can create a campus
  • can edit a campus's info, including adding/removing a student to/from that campus
  • can delete a campus
  • can create a student
  • can edit a student's info, including the campus that student is assigned to
  • can delete a student

Routes

GET
- all campuses
- a campus by id
- all students
- a student by id

POST
- new campus
- new student

PUT
- updated student info for one student
- updated campus info for one campus

DELETE
- a campus
- a student

How to test functionality without a frontend

• GET: use your browser
• POST / PUT / DELETE :
• CLI (command line interface) with curl
  • e.g. curl -H "Content-Type: application/json" -X POST -d '{"username":"kate","password":"1234"}' http://localhost:3000/api/login
  • -H: headers. -X: verb. -d: data (must be of the type specified in headers). http://[address]:[port]/[route_path]
• Postman
• Databases: use Sequelize in your routes and see if you are receiving what you expect

Video Walkthrough

Please submit a 3-minute screencast of a walk-through of the functionality and code for each user story in your app. E.g. for "As a user, I can create a campus", please show us that you can successfully create a campus in your app, and also the actual code that is involved in doing that (from the front-end components to the backend routes and models). We recommend using Quicktime to record the screencast (instructions on how to do that here).

Once you've recorded your screencast, please upload it to YouTube as an unlisted video. Email [email protected] with the title Senior Enrichment Submission: [Your Name] and include your repo link and YouTube recording link. This will aid us in evaluating your submission.
