Module challenge for Node DB 4

Recipe Book

Topics

• database modeling.
• migration scripts.
• seeding.
• knex.

Assignment

Design the data model for a recipe book application, then use Knex migrations and seeding functionality to build a SQLite3 database based on the model and seed it with test data.

The requirements for the system, as stated by the client are:

• have a way to manage recipes.
• have a way to manage ingredients.
• a recipe could have more than one ingredient and the same ingredient can be used in multiple recipes. Examples are "cup of corn flour" or "gram of butter".
• when saving the ingredients for a recipe capture the quantity required for that ingredient as a floating number.
• have a way to save step by step instructions for preparing a recipe.

Hint: Before writing any code, write out all desired tables in the data model and determine all relationships between tables.

Migrations and Seeds

• Write a migration file that creates all tables necessary to model this data
• Write seed files to populate the tables with test data. Hint: Keep your recipes very simple or this step could become extremely time consuming.

Data Access

In addition to the migrations and seeding scripts, write a data access file that exports an object with the following functions:

• getRecipes(): should return a list of all recipes in the database.
• getShoppingList(recipe_id): should return a list of all ingredients and quantities for a given recipe
• getInstructions(recipe_id): should return a list of step by step instructions for preparing a recipe

Organize and name your files anyway you see fit.

Stretch Problem

Build the following endpoints. Write any additional data access helpers as needed.

• GET /api/recipes/: all recipes (without details about ingredients or steps)
• GET /api/recipes/:id/shoppingList: a list of ingredients and quantites for a single recipe
• GET /api/recipes/:id/instructions: a correctly ordered list of how to prepare a single recipe
• GET /api/ingredients/:id/recipes: all recipes in the system that utilize a single ingredient
