coding-energy-consumption

The system that allows to receive and collect data about energy consumption from different villages. As a result, the system should, on demand, give out the consumption report per village for the last 24h.

Stack

Spring Boot, Maven, MySQL, Docker. We will use minikube to run a local kubernetes instance. We will access this local kubernetes with the client called kubectl.

Assumptions

1. There has to be atleast one electrical counter in every village i.e. a village cannot exist without electrical counter.
2. A village can have any number of electrical counter.
3. The last 24h will be considered from current time when the report is generated.
4. All the electrical counter is operational all the time in every village.
5. GET https://europe-west2-zenhomes-development-project.cloudfunctions.net/counters/1 is always up and working and return non empty response.
6. By default the report will show energy consumption of last 24 hrs per village.
7. Duration should always be in hours while generating reports.
8. counter_id is always positive integer in post call.

ToDo

1. If possible do basic authentication on POST /counter_callback call.
2. Implement mysql persistent volume.
3. Generate REST Documentation.
4. Automate the deployment of service to kubernetes.
5. Logging.
6. Cloud.
7. Securing Containers.
8. Add some more unit test cases and duration can be passed dynamically instead of 24h.
9. Securing an application with Transport Layer Security and a Self-Signed Certificate.
