This is my implemnetation of the MyReads project as part of the Udacity React Nanodegree Program.
MyReads is a book tracking web application that allows you to search for and categorize books by Currently Reading, Want to Read, and Read.
To get started developing right away:
- install all project dependencies with
npm install - start the development server with
npm start
To simplify your development process, we've provided a backend server for you to develop against. The provided file BooksAPI.js contains the methods you will need to perform necessary operations on the backend:
Method Signature:
getAll()- Returns a Promise which resolves to a JSON object containing a collection of book objects.
- This collection represents the books currently in the bookshelves in your app.
Method Signature:
update(book, shelf)- book:
<Object>containing at minimum anidattribute - shelf:
<String>contains one of ["wantToRead", "currentlyReading", "read"] - Returns a Promise which resolves to a JSON object containing the response data of the POST request
Method Signature:
search(query)- query:
<String> - Returns a Promise which resolves to a JSON object containing a collection of a maximum of 20 book objects.
- These books do not know which shelf they are on. They are raw results only. You'll need to make sure that books have the correct state while on the search page.
The book search API uses fixed set of cached search results and is limited to a particular set of search terms, which can be found in SEARCH_TERMS.md. That list of terms are the only terms that will work with the backend.
