Wine review API in Go
This tutorial is supposed to be worked on independently, but there are checkpoints along the way.
To Begin
Checkout the branch step1 to start, each step has a corresponding completion branch - step1-completion for example.
To view the full solution, checkout complete, here you will see all steps in the README.md file, as well as a proposed solution.
Please note that this is not intended to be a representative of a full production codebase, it exists for the purpose of this tutorial, there are many and probably better ways to get to the end state.
Step 1
The Data**
We have found a set of data from Kaggle that we have downloaded into the **/resources directory. There are two files, one with 130k records, and another with 20 records. I would suggest working with the csv with 20 records for when developing.
Have a look at the kaggle link above, and check out the csv format - in particular we will be interested in the following attributes:
- ID
- Title
- Variety
- Country
- Points
- TasterName
The Challenge
Create a go program that will read a csv file and print out the following information:
2019/03/31 13:30:35 Starting application
2019/03/31 13:30:35 Number of reviews: 20
2019/03/31 13:30:35 Most prolific Reviewer: Michael Schachner
2019/03/31 13:30:35 Most reviewed variety: Gewürztraminer
2019/03/31 13:30:35 Finished the application
Run the program by simply use the following command
go run main.go
