Calculate discounts for orders.

This service receives an order in JSON format, sent in the request body. Then it returns the same information received adding some more information:

• total-before-discount - The original value of total attribute received within the order. This is returned for every item in the order and for the order itself.
• discounts-descriptions - Descriptions of all the discounts there were applied. It is returned empty if no discount was applied.

More details can be found here: https://github.com/teamleadercrm/coding-test/blob/master/1-discounts.md

This service was built using the Yii Framework 2 and it uses Composer to manage its dependencies. Yii is a MVC framework. Codeception were used to create some tests.

The following resources/documentation where used during the development:

• Using Yii as a Micro-framework
• Restful Web Services
• Yii2 Testing
• Codeception Yii2 Module

Create a new class inside the discounts folder. This class must implement IDiscount interface and a public method called apply. This method is were you must define the discount application logic and make adjustments to the order model.

This method receives the following arguments:

• &$order - an Order model with all the order information.
• $customer - a Customer model with information about the customer placing the order.
• $products - an array of Product models representing the products in the order.

Warning: All discounts directly modify the Order object.

Then edit the Order model and add the new discount to the activeDiscounts property in the order you want it to be applied.

After cloning this repository, install the dependencies by executing inside the project root folder:

composer install

From the root folder run this command to start a simple webserver:

./vendor/bin/yii serve --docroot=./web

Make note of the address the server is listening. Usually it is http://localhost:8080

Start sending requests to the service using a REST client like Insomnia.

• GET /discounts/ping - Check if this service is up and running.
• POST /discounts - Receive an order in JSON format in the body of the request and returns the order with the discounts applied. Includes discounts description.

For simplicity authentication is not needed. It can be easily done by following the Authentication Documentation.

There are some Codeception tests available.

These tests really comunicates with an up and running server. Make sure you had run ./vendor/bin/yii serve command as explanined above before executing the acceptance tests.

./vendor/bin/codecept run acceptance
