FIFA World Cup Winners

This project exposes a Web API for accessing historic data from the FIFA World Cup championship.

Running tests

A proper Go environment is required in order to run this project. Once setup, tests can be run with the make test or simply make command.

Running the server

Once all tests are passing, the server can be started with the make start command.

Testing the API manually

Start the server with make start and then read the Access Token printed to standard output. This token will be used for POST requests.

GETting

curl -i http://localhost:8000/
curl -i http://localhost:8000/winners
curl -i http://localhost:8000/winners?year=1970
curl -i http://localhost:8000/winners?year=banana

POSTin with no access token

curl -i -X POST \
-d '{"country":"Croatia", "year": 2030}' http://localhost:8000/winners

POSTing with valid access token

First, start the sever and read the value for the Access Token printed to standard output.

curl -i -X POST \
-H "X-ACCESS-TOKEN: 5577006791947779410" \
-d '{"country":"Croatia", "year": 2030}' http://localhost:8000/winners

Then check for the newly added winner

curl -i http://localhost:8000/winners

POSTing with invalid data

curl -i -X POST \
-H "X-ACCESS-TOKEN: 5577006791947779410" \
-d '{"country":"Russia", "year": 1984}' http://localhost:8000/winners

POSTing with invalid method

curl -i -X PUT -d '{"country":"Russia", "year": 2030}' http://localhost:8000/winners
