Full Throttle Lab Assessment API

A Mock API made with JSON Server by Typicode for Full Throttle Lab Assessment Project.
A JSON based Backend for Member Activity Viewer Application

Data Generated from Mockaroo Realistic Data Generator

How did I create a suitable database?

The database file db.json was prepared in multiple steps:

• Generated Fake Data using Mockaroo, the template is displayed above.

• As the end_time should be greater then the start_time & mockaroo had no such method to generate relative datetime, I made custom python script to generate random end_time(greater than start_time but closer to 1-4 hours) for each member's each activity_periods entry. Thus converting db_unstructured.json to db_structured.json file using generate_end_time.py.

• Later realized that this structure itself is not suitable as per JSON Specifications to have multiple endpoints for fetching data. So in order to make it suitable for json-server, I created another python script to restructure the JSON File by separating the activity_period as a separate entity in another collection called db.activity_periods having entries with relationship to db.members collection using a foreign key called memberId. Thus converting db_structured.json to db.json using restructuring_json.py that will be used by json-server to autocreate a JSON API Server.

• Deployed the server on repl at this link.

• The Frontend Site that uses this mock API is deployed on netlify at this link and a private github repository.

• Note : Use this link to get JSON similar to Sample File : https://json-server.cyogian.repl.co/members?_embed=activity_periods
