For this mock challenge, we'll be working with a domain for a coffee shop.
We have two models: CoffeeOrder
which shows the coffee orders which belong to a Customer
.
- Classes and Instances
- Class and Instance Methods
- Variable Scope
- lists and list Methods
- SQL queries
- ORM methods
To get started, run pipenv install
while inside of this directory.
Only one of the tables, customers
has been created so far. Additionally the Customer
class already has its required functionality and you won't have to build
additional methods for it.
Build out all of the methods listed in the deliverables for CoffeeOrder
. The methods are listed in a suggested order, but you can feel free to tackle the ones you think
are easiest. Be careful: some of the later methods rely on earlier ones.
We've provided you with a tool that you can use to test your code. To use it,
run python debug.py
from the command line. This will start a ipdb
session
with your classes defined. You can test out the methods that you write here. You
can add code to the debug.py
file to define variables and create sample
instances of your objects. There are no formal tests to run with this code so be
sure to test it in the debug.py
often.
Writing error-free code is more important than completing all of the deliverables listed - prioritize writing methods that work over writing more methods that don't work. You should test your code in the console as you write.
Similarly, messy code that works is better than clean code that doesn't. First, prioritize getting things working. Then, if there is time at the end, refactor your code to adhere to best practices. When you encounter duplicated logic, extract it into a shared helper method.
Write the following methods in the classes in the files provided. Feel free to build out any helper methods if needed.
CoffeeOrder classmethod create_table()
- Creates a
coffee_orders
table with these columns: id (INTEGER), coffee_name (TEXT), price (INTEGER), customer_id (NUMBER)
- Creates a
CoffeeOrder __init__(coffee_name, price, customer_id, id=None)
CoffeeOrder
is initialized with a coffee_name (string) and a price (integer or float)- When initialized a CoffeeOrder should have an id of None
- Assume that CoffeeOrders will always be initialized with the proper data types
CoffeeOrder __repr__()
- Returns the CoffeeOrder instance in the format below:
CoffeeOrder(id={id} coffee_name={coffee_name}, price={price}, customer_id={customer_id})
CoffeeOrder property price()
- Returns the
CoffeeOrder
's price - The price must be an number greater than 0
- Returns the
CoffeeOrder create()
- Creates a CoffeeOrder in the database with the instance's attributes
CoffeeOrder delete()
- Deletes the CoffeeOrder from the database
- No return value is necessary for this method
CoffeeOrder classmethod query_all()
- Returns a list of CoffeeOrder instances based on rows in the database
- The return value ought to be a list of CoffeeOrder instances
CoffeeOrder classmethod query_by_id(id)
- Returns a CoffeeOrder instance from the database that matches the id argument
- The return value ought to be a CoffeeOrder instance or None if no CoffeeOrder exists with that id
CoffeeOrder property customer()
- Returns the Customer that the CoffeeOrder is associated with as an instance
- If the CoffeeOrder is not associated with a Customer returns
None
- When setting the customer, if the argument is a
Customer
instance it associates the CoffeeOrder with the customer - The database is already seeded with customers for testing purposes
- Customer(id=1, name="Bender")
- Customer(id=2, name="Leela")
- Customer(id=3, name="Phillip J Fry")
CoffeeOrder classmethod highest_price()
- Returns the CoffeeOrder with the highest price from the database as an instance
Customer classmethod average_price()
- Returns the average price of all of a customer's coffee orders
CoffeeOrder update()
- Updates the coffee order in the database to match any changes to the instance's attributes
CoffeeOrder save()
- Will either create a new entry in the database or update an existing entry for a coffee order based on whether that order has an id
