Automatic Driver-Shipment Dispatch Application | Node.js

A basic automatic dispatch system for some shipments! Your app will be able to read from a list of shipments that need to be picked up and a list of available drivers and their locations, and hit an existing REST endpoint to dispatch these shipments to nearby drivers. You are given the following:

• JSON file representing a list of drivers with their current locations
• driverId is the key of each JSON object (1, 2, 3...)
• JSON file representing a list of 5 active shipments and their pickup locations
• shipmentId is the key of each JSON object (65289023243, 3823958290...)
