This repository provides two solutions (local executable and aws serverless function via sam) for the view spot finder coding challenge see the Assignment[1][1][1][1][2].pdf.
Here we have the local implementation of the coding challenge. To run it locally install go https://go.dev/learn/.
Navigate to the folder ./view_spot_finder_local and execute the following:
go run .\main.go ..\mesh[1][1][1][1].json 20- The first parameter needs to point to json file (like in the root folder of the project \mesh[1][1][1][1].json...)
- The second parameter specifies how many view spots should be output
There are also executables provided under Release v1.0 on the release page in github. Download the executable for your specific system.
Here's an example for windows:
./view_spot_finder_local_win.exe C:\Development\git_repository\view_spot_finder\mesh_x_sin_cos_20000[1][1][1][1].json 20Here we have the same coding challenge implementation, but developed as an AWS Serverless Function. To get started get the AWS SAM CLI https://docs.aws.amazon.com/serverless-application-model/latest/developerguide/serverless-sam-cli-install.html. (You also need docker)
To test the function, I provided several HTML-Requests as templates. These are located under ./view_spot_finder_sam/thunder-requests. To use them install the Thunder Client extension for Visual Studio Code. https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=rangav.vscode-thunder-client
After that you can import the collection of requests via Collections -> Import (Bulk) and select the thunder-collection_view-spot-finder.json.
To start the local api, execute the following (clearly in the view_spot_finder_sam folder)
sam local start-apiAfter the server started you can execute th requests with the Thunder Client.
If you want to test the application after changes, you need to execute make (you need to have make installed on your system) under the ./view_spot_finder_sam/ folder. It will build the new version for the AWS Serverless Function.
