Introduction

The application exposes a REST API that allows querying the price of a specific product based on its application date, product ID, and brand ID. The system is designed using Domain-Driven Design (DDD) principles and follows a Hexagonal Architecture to separate the core business logic from external dependencies.

Architecture

The Hexagonal Architecture used in this project follows a ports and adapters approach:

• Api-rest: Contains the REST API controllers and DTOs.
• Domain: Contains domain entities and business logic.
• Application: Defines use cases and business rules.
• Infrastructure: Manages configuration, persistence, and other infrastructure components.

Technologies Used

• Java 17
• Spring Boot 3.x
• H2 Database (for local environment)
• MapStruct (for DTO conversion)
• Lombok (to reduce boilerplate code)
• JUnit 5 (for unit testing)
• Maven (dependency management)

Prerequisites

Make sure you have the following installed before getting started:

• Java 17 or higher
• Maven 3.x
• Git

Setup and Execution

Clone the Repository

git clone https://github.com/enriqueGonzalo/core.git
cd core

Build the Project

mvn clean install

Run the Application

mvn spring-boot:run

The application will be available at http://localhost:8080.

Usage

Price Query Endpoint

The main endpoint exposes the following route:

GET /api/v1/prices?applicationDate={applicationDate}&productId={productId}&brandId={brandId}

Parameters:

• applicationDate (String): Date in the format yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss.
• productId (Integer): Product identifier.
• brandId (Integer): Brand identifier.

Sample request:

curl -X GET "http://localhost:8080/api/v1/prices?applicationDate=2024-11-06T10:00:00&productId=35455&brandId=1"

Expected response:

{
  "productId": 35455,
  "brandId": 1,
  "startDate": "2024-11-06T10:00:00",
  "price": 35.50
}
