Vie de Merde REST API

This example uses the following:

• MongoDB
• Scrapy (python)
• Play Framework (scala)
• Docker Compose

Start and launch the application

docker-compose build
docker-compose up

http://localhost:9000/api/posts
http://localhost:9000/api/posts/[ID]

Fetch the 200 newest posts from viedemerde.fr

To fetch the newest posts, you can run:

docker-compose run scraper scrapy crawl viedemerde

Run API unit tests with scalatest

docker-compose run restapi sbt test

Possible improvements

• Scraper parsing tests
• API tests with mock data
• Abstraction of DB call from the container
