Assignment

Write a REST API for the input of calories in Python

Task Instructions

• API Users must be able to create an account and log in.
• All API calls must be authenticated.
• Implement at least three roles with different permission levels: a regular user would only be able to CRUD on their owned records, a user manager would be able to CRUD only users, and an admin would be able to CRUD all records and users.
• Each entry has a date, time, text, and number of calories.
• If the number of calories is not provided, the API should connect to a Calories API provider (for example, https://www.nutritionix.com) and try to get the number of calories for the entered meal.
• User setting – Expected number of calories per day.
• Each entry should have an extra boolean field set to true if the total for that day is less than the expected number of calories per day, otherwise should be false.
• The API must be able to return data in the JSON format.
• The API should provide filter capabilities for all endpoints that return a list of elements, as well should be able to support pagination.
• Write unit and e2e tests.
• Use any Python web framework
• Use SQLite as the database

Task Expectations

• API Design Best Practices
• Documentation of any assumptions or choices made and why
• Links as citation to any article / code referred to or used
• Unit tests covering the core calories logic
• Appropriate exception handling and error messages
• Code Quality - remove any unnecessary code, avoid large functions
• Good commit history - we won’t accept a repo with a single giant commit 🙅‍♀️

Candidacy Confirmation

Hello, I applied for the octernship when it was first announced and noticed that only around 50 students had registered at that time. However, I encountered what I believed to be a glitch as the project did not appear in my task section on the octernship page. Today, I attempted to apply again and received a notification stating that the limit had been reached and applications were no longer being accepted. I assure you that I submitted my application on time and also completed the project as required.

Could you kindly confirm if my candidacy for this position has been accepted? Thank you.

Can I get a new repo

Hello, my name is Abhishek. Currently, I am working on backend API project using fastApi. Unfortunately, I made a few errors during the process, and the biggest mistake I made was forgetting to add a gitignore file at the start of the project. As a result, I am now facing difficulties and would appreciate your assistance in starting the project again. Although I have almost completed it, I had used the rebase command, which has caused some issues.
