• Service which supports finding a route from Origin to Destination and computing additional information (details below),

• Only backend API .

• The user of the API will specify origin and destination location points, a time parameter and way-points parameter (see the parameters description below).

• The goal is, for every single specified way-point, to find a route from origin to destination through the (single) way-point.

• This means that if there are 3 way-points passed in the request (see example below), there will be 3 alternative routes generated, each one with its own single way-point, not a single route with 3 way-points.

• Use OSRM http://project-osrm.org/docs/v5.22.0/api/#route-service for fetching the routes, it's available online for free and it supports the retrieval of all the necessary data.

• Once the alternative routes are generated, let's say there will be the same number of alternative (imaginary) cars, each taking one of the routes and all departing at the same time from the origin.

• The API will determine which one of these alternative cars will be the closest to the destination after X seconds (specified by the time parameter in the request) after departure.

• The term “closest” here means direct distance through the air, not via roads. This car will be declared the “winner” and the name property of the way-point that it went through will be returned in the winnerName field of the response (see below).

• Additionally, after finding the “winner” car, the service will compute how much more time the other cars would need to reach a point on their route where they would have the same distance from the destination like the “winner” car had when it won.

• The results of these computations will be returned in the delays field of the response, this field will be an object with the car “names”(each one based on the name of its respective way-point) as keys and the delays in seconds as values.

• Each delay will be the difference between the time of “winning” and the time of reaching the desired distance from destination by the given car, the delay for the “winner” car will thus normally be 0.

The service will be built with a database connection in mind, but there is no need to connect to any real DB. There will just be a simple mock function, which will return a fixed value when data is requested. This fixed value will be the string “Mileus” and it will be used as the secret password for the API (see the Request details below). If the request does not have the correct header with this string, the API will return the Unauthorized response. Tests are not mandatory in the service, but it would be highly appreciated to have at least a couple of them for some parts of the service. Input validation is expected to be in place, so if there is any issue with the request, for example wrong types, missing fields or anything else that would prevent the service from handling the request, the API will respond with the Bad Request status code.

 x-secret - Secret password for the API

 origin - Location object (with latitude and longitude) defining journey start
 destination - Location object (with latitude and longitude) defining journey end
 time - Delay in seconds after start for computing the positions of the cars
 way-points - Array of location objects with names to be used as pass-through points for
			the alternative cars

{
"origin": {
"lat": 50.023226,
"lon": 14.439855
},
"destination": {
"lat": 50.121765629793295,
"lon": 14.489431312606477

"time": 180,
"way-points": [
{
"name": "Point A",

},
{
"name": "Point C",
"lat": 50.078847,
"lon": 14.538084
}
]
}

The response will be a JSON object containing the following fields:

● winnerName - Name of the way-point that had the “winner” car going through it

● delays - Object describing the delays of the cars (the values are in seconds and can also
contain floats, not only integers)
Example response (just an illustration, not linked to the example request):

{
"winnerName": "Point Y",
"delays": {
"Point X": 34.57,
"Point Y": 0,
"Point Z": 78
}
}
