MyReads Project
This is the starter template for the final assessment project for Udacity’s React Fundamentals course. The goal of this template is to save you time by providing a static example of the CSS and HTML markup that may be used, but without any of the React code that is needed to complete the project. If you choose to start with this template, your job will be to add interactivity to the app by refactoring the static code in this template.
TL;DR
To get started developing right away:
- install all project dependencies with
npm install - start the development server with
npm start
Backend Server
To simplify your development process, we’ve provided a backend server for you to develop against. The provided file BooksAPI.ts contains the methods you will need to perform necessary operations on the backend:
getAll
Method Signature:
getAll();
- Returns a Promise which resolves to a JSON object containing a collection of book objects.
- This collection represents the books currently in the bookshelves in your app.
update
Method Signature:
update(book, shelf);
- book:
<Object>containing at minimum anidattribute - shelf:
<String>contains one of [“wantToRead”, “currentlyReading”, “read”] - Returns a Promise which resolves to a JSON object containing the response data of the POST request
search
Method Signature:
search(query);
- query:
<String> - Returns a Promise which resolves to a JSON object containing a collection of a maximum of 20 book objects.
- These books do not know which shelf they are on. They are raw results only. You’ll need to make sure that books have the correct state while on the search page.
Important
The backend API uses a fixed set of cached search results and is limited to a particular set of search terms, which can be found in SEARCH_TERMS.md. That list of terms are the only terms that will work with the backend, so don’t be surprised if your searches for Basket Weaving or Bubble Wrap don’t come back with any results.
