How to run

Clone the Pokedox project then open intelliJ idea and clone using VCS, Paste the link gotten from the cloning Ensure to install java JDK 1.8 Install maven the dependencies will be downloaded automatically, and the project should be ready to run but if that's not the case then kindly run the mvn install command in the directory of the project where you can find the pom.xml file.

Translation The translation decision is made using a chain of command pattern.

Retries Retries are executed twice, except the rate limit has been hit, this sufficiently caters for intermittent access denied exception .

Caching All unique pokemon requests are cached to improve performance and evicted after a translation of the pokemon has been made to prevent returning a translated pokemon on a non translated endpoint

Testing The application can be tested by running the mvn test command in the project root directory.

Api Documentation The API Documentation can be found on the swagger link at http://localhost:5000/swagger-ui/ you can find details about the application like health by executing the actuator endpoint which you'll find on swagger.

Containerization

I added a docker file for app containerization please run a maven install in the root directory "mvn install" Next run a docker build : "docker build -t pokedox-application.jar ." And Finally : "docker run -p 5000:5000 pokedox-application.jar"
