ProductSearch is a simple Rails application that enables a user to search Semantics3's product database.
Live demo: https://sem3-product-search.herokuapp.com/
Clone the repository at: https://github.com/fingerprint/ProductSearch
-
You will need to create an account at Semantics3: https://semantics3.com/start
-
Once your account has been activated (email verification is required), add the API_KEY and API_SECRET to the .env file (see .env.sample in the root of project).
-
Implement caching, where Semantics3 query responses are stored in a SQL database to speed-up subsequent searches (note: cache invalidation is not a requirement).
-
Write unit tests.
-
Refactor the search view using a front-end JavaScript framework (React, Vue.js, or Angular).
-
Implement a simple interface that allows an “admin” to review, add, or remove items from the cache.
-
Implement pagination.
