API mini program done for a technical test

Code is done in Scala and dependency on the Lift framework is managed through sbt

• Clone the repository
• cd to bookingtechtest
• sbt

run 1.123,5.567 2.234,3.345 3 -> searches all 3 apis with the given arguments as pickup, dropoff and passengers -> lists the cheapest of all suitable vehicle types as "$type - $supplier - $price\n"

Notes:

• Vehicle types are not subsorted by price to return the cheapest vehicle type first
• 2s timeout
• No exception when no available car is large enough
• No reliance on there always being some kind of data

To run the server:

• sbt
• jetty:start

I extended Main.scala, created Boot.scala and RestHelper.scala to have an API. It supports GET with parameters in the same way as the command line version.

Sample request: http://localhost:8080/api/car?pickup=3.410632,-2.157533&dropoff=3.410632,-2.157533&passengers=5
