This project is a school assignment from Reykjavík University. The reason for this repository being public is to showcase code examples. Copying this code to use for the same assignment is considered plagiarism and will likely result in a penalty carried out by the teacher.
This readme is for Video Galore, Project 2 in T-303-HONN at Reykjavik University Project contributors are Unnsteinn Garðarsson, Ásdís Erna Guðmundsdóttir and Örn Friðriksson
The API was written in C# using .net core and Entity Framework Core along with an SQL database. We agreed on using camel casing for variables and pascal casing for methods. We begin all curly brackets after method declaration on a new line.
We are using the Layered architecture principle for our web api where we seperate each layer into an individual project. We have a Galore.WebApi project as the presentation layer, Galore.Services as the domain layer and Galore.Repositories as the data layer We also have individual projects for the Models and the tests.
We are using the Data Transfer Object(DTO) principle for our models so that we pass input specific models to the controllers and to the services. The services then use both the input model and the DTO models to transform models between controller and data layer. To do this we are using AutoMapper which is the Mapping principle. Each controller/service/repository are implement an interface so that we can use Dependency Injection within our project.
We wrote unit tests for all methods in controllers/services/repositories along with integration tests for all flows. User, Tape, Loan and Review. For the unit tests we are using EF core InMemory which mocks out our database based on our schema so that counts as the Service Stub
Our code is written with the DRY and KISS principles in mind and it is Loosely Coupled.
We chose a SQL database for this project, we wanted to grab the opportunity and get familiar with the azure portal. We used the Entity Framework Core Code First principle to genereate database tables based on our entity models.
Navigate to the Galore.WebApi folder and run dotnet build and then dotnet run
After executing dotnet build and dotnet run you can navigate to a generated Swagger Documentation
