This is sample django project built by Roman Fedorov (rfedorov@linkentools.com). It has been requested by HR.

Hey Roman,

It's ***, HR at *** team. I'm sending our code challenge. There is no max or min time for it, but the usual range is about 5-7 hours. The deadline for the code challenge will be ***, but feel free to let me know if you need some more time.

In terms of our task, we would like you to:

1. Create a new web application using Django

2. Scrape the Ticketmaster Discovery API for events https://developer.ticketmaster.com/products-and-docs/apis/discovery-api/v2/ Don’t scrape everything. 50 pages should be enough because of API keys are limited by 5k requests per day.

3. Store and/or structure the events that you scrape into your Django application. Event should have at least: event name, promoter name if it exists, description, multiple prices, url, start date, finish date)

4. Inside your Django app, create a searchable api endpoint (returns json) allow the api request to search for event name, event start date, promoter name, ticket cost (min and max for a standard price).

5. Inside your application, create 1 API endpoint that accepts json that allows a user to update the locally stored event record, create some arbitrary validations.

6. Send us the code and the URL to your hosted application.

7. Write Tests you find necessary

Ticketmaster API key: *** Please let us know in case you experience any issues with this. Looking forward to hearing from you!

server/apps/main - django root

server/apps/main/event - primary event logic

server/apps/main/management/commands/get_events.py - download event logic

server_tests - all tests here

server_tests/test_apps/test_main/test_event - event tests

server_tests/test_apps/test_main/test_event/cassettes/test_get_events.yaml - event cassettes, prevent real API calls in tests

https://ticket.rfedorov.ru/api/event/

primary url with deployed version

/admin/main/event/

list all Events in default django admin

/api/event/G5vVZ4U9eCe11/

View/Edit/Delete Event with id G5vVZ4U9eCe11

/api/event/?limit=20&offset=0&cost_min__lte=50&name__contains=Seattle

simple filter with sql equivalent cost_min <= 50 and name like %Seattle%

/api/event/?limit=20&offset=0&cost_min__lte=50&promoter_name__contains=REGULAR&name__regex=York&start_date__hour=23

filter Events according next logic:

• cost_min <= 50
• promoter_name contains text REGULAR
• name regex match York
• start_date get hour 23
