Tecky's Professional Mobile App(PMA) Entry Test

Motivation

This course is designed for students with experience in software development. It is assumed that students joining this course already know basic Javascript or other programming languages. If you don’t have any programming experience, we recommend you to join our Micromaster in AI and Programming to learn how to build a full stack software.

Requirement

You need to build a Restful API that has the following structure:

API	Sample Input	Sample Output
GET /students	{}	[{name:"Ann",year:1,averageGPA:2.7},{name:"Peter",year:4,averageGPA:3.4}]
POST /students	{name:'John',year:2}	{updated:1}
PUT /students/:id	{id:2,name:'Ben',year:1}	{updated:1}
DELETE /students/:id	{id:2}	{updated:1}

On your server side, you can use the following as your sample data. Therefore there is no need for database. Also it is not necessary to maintain a json file as the file storage.

{
    "students":[
        {
            "id": 1,
            "name": "Ann",
            "year": 1,
            "averageGPA": 2.7
        },
        {
            "id": 2,
            "name": "Benn",
            "year": 2,
            "averageGPA" : 3.4
        },
        {
            "id": 3,
            "name": "Peter",
            "year": 4,
            "averageGPA" : 3.4
        }
    ]
}

A Postman file is also attached for clarification.

Technology

The implemented should be done by NodeJS. It does not matter which framework you make use of.

Submission

We advise you to use CodeSandBox to build your RESTful API since it is the easiest way to share with us.Codesandbox allows you to build node right inside the browser.
