For this challenge, we'll be working with a Movie Review domain, like Netflix.
We have three models: Viewer
, Movie
, and Review
.
A Movie
has many Review
s. A Viewer
has many Review
s. A Review
belongs
to a Viewer
and belongs to a Movie
.
Viewer
- Movie
is a many to many relationship.
Note: You should draw your domain on paper or on a whiteboard before you start coding. Remember to identify a single source of truth for your data.
- Classes and Instances
- Class and Instance Methods
- Variable Scope
- Object Relationships
- lists and list Methods
To get started, run pipenv install
while inside of this directory.
Build out all of the methods listed in the deliverables. The methods are listed in a suggested order, but you can feel free to tackle the ones you think are easiest. Be careful: some of the later methods rely on earlier ones.
Remember! This code challenge does not have tests. You cannot run pytest
.
You'll need to create your own sample instances so that you can try out your
code on your own. Make sure your relationships and methods work in the console
before submitting.
We've provided you with a tool that you can use to test your code. To use it,
run python debug.py
from the command line. This will start a ipdb
session
with your classes defined. You can test out the methods that you write here. You
can add code to the debug.py
file to define variables and create sample
instances of your objects.
Writing error-free code is more important than completing all of the deliverables listed - prioritize writing methods that work over writing more methods that don't work. You should test your code in the console as you write.
Similarly, messy code that works is better than clean code that doesn't. First, prioritize getting things working. Then, if there is time at the end, refactor your code to adhere to best practices. When you encounter duplicated logic, extract it into a shared helper method.
Before you submit! Save and run your code to verify that it works as you expect. If you have any methods that are not working yet, feel free to leave comments describing your progress.
Write the following methods in the classes in the files provided. Feel free to build out any helper methods if needed.
Movie __init__(self, title)
Movie
is initialized with a title (string)- Title can be changed after the
Movie
is initialized
Movie property title()
- Returns the
Movie
's title - Titles must be strings greater than 0 characters
- Returns the
Viewer __init__(self, username)
Viewer
is initialized with a username (string)- Usernames can be changed after the Viewer is initialized
Viewer property username()
- Returns the Viewer's username
- Usernames must be unique strings between 6 and 16 characters, inclusive
Review __init__(self, viewer, movie, rating)
Review
is initialized with aViewer
instance, aMovie
instance, and a rating (number)
Review property rating()
- Returns the rating for the
Review
instance - Ratings must be integers between 1 and 5, inclusive
- Returns the rating for the
Review property viewer()
- Returns the viewer who wrote the review
- Viewers must be
Viewer
instances- You will need to import
Viewer
inside of this property to avoid a circular import.
- You will need to import
Review property movie()
- Returns the movie that is being reviewed
- Movies must be
Movie
instances- You will need to import
Movie
inside of this property to avoid a circular import.
- You will need to import
Viewer reviews
- Returns a list of
Review
instances associated with theViewer
instance.
- Returns a list of
Viewer reviewed_movies
- Returns a list of
Movie
instances reviewed by theViewer
instance.
- Returns a list of
Movie reviews
- Returns a list of all the
Review
instances for theMovie
.
- Returns a list of all the
Movie reviewers
- Returns a list of all of the
Viewer
instances that reviewed theMovie
.
- Returns a list of all of the
Viewer reviewed_movie(movie)
- Returns
True
if theViewer
has reviewed thisMovie
(if there is aReview
instance that has thisViewer
andMovie
), returnsFalse
otherwise
- Returns
Viewer rate_movie(movie, rating)
- A
Movie
instance and a rating (number) are passed in as arguments - If the
Viewer
instance and the passedMovie
instance are not already associated, this method should create a newReview
instance - If this
Viewer
has already reviewed thisMovie
, assigns the new rating to the existingReview
instance
- A
Movie average_rating()
- Returns the average of all ratings for the
Movie
instance - To average ratings, add all ratings together and divide by the total number of ratings.
- Returns the average of all ratings for the
Movie classmethod highest_rated(movies)
- Returns the
Movie
instance with the highest average rating.
- Returns the
