@nljms/toy-robot-challenge v1.0.1

Getting Started With Toy Robot Challenge

This is a typescript implementation of the toy robot challenge. This project uses es6 module and is being transpiled by babel. I'm using node 14.15.0 in this project so there would be a posibility that you might encounter some error while trying to install the dependecies. You can use nvm

Implementation

I've used different architectural patterns in this project.

• Singleton
  • I setup a store which serves as the singe source of truth for this project. Most of the services uses the single instance of RobotMovementStore
• Event Sourcing
  • I used a store in this project to persist and rebuild the history of valid command inputs that are handled in this system
• Dependency Injection
  • Although it's not the usual kind of implementation, I am always a fan of dependency injection. In this approach I am free to abstract things and spread it out into different domains.

Start development

There were two arguments needed to run this application.

• -i [--input] - uses cli to handle input commands
• -d [--directory] - uses fileDirectory to read commands inside a readable file.

# install dependencies
yarn

# running it locally
yarn start -i # or use --input if you want to use it verbosely

# or file based entry
yarn start -d <file-to-path>  # or use --directory if you want to use it verbosely

# run test
yarn test

Deployment

I'm using github workflows to deploy this to npm
