Localz Driver Tracker

Localz is building a platform to track driver locations as they deliver parcels.

A driver logs into their device and begins submitting location. This location will be used for the customer to track the driver on a map.

Requirements

Please conform to the requirements below, we do not expect you to go beyond these. This is a server-side challenge.

• Tests
• Use either MongoDB or Postgres
• REST interface
• Request validation
• Driver-Location relationship
  • Locations are associated with a driver via a session
  • Locations are submitted to a session
  • Sessions store a list of locations
  • A sessions is created when a driver logs in
  • A session becomes inactive when a driver logs out
  • A driver can only have a single active session
• It should be possible to:
  • List locations for a driver's active session
  • List historical sessions for a driver along with their locations
  • List drivers
  • Submit a location for a session
  • Search driver by name
  • Retrieve a driver by driver ID
  • For a driver to:
    • login
    • logout
• You are not expected to implement authentication or authorisation
• You can assume drivers are already registered in the system and logs in via their id
• README documenting:
  • Your approach to the problem
  • How to run your code
  • How to test

Entities

• Driver

    {
      "id": "bfabf30b-c3c9-4940-8af8-f27a49a1114f",
      "firstName" : "Bob",
      "lastName": "Dylan"
    }
  

• Location

    {
      "latitude": -37.61381,
      "longitude": 144.6660788,
      "timestamp": "2019-09-23T13:40:44+10:00"
    }
  

Tips

• Store location in an efficient way. Many databases have types like GeoJSON.
• Think about issues you might have with scaling.
