Shipment sample application

We're writing software for a package shipment company.

Write a "ship package" service that can be used to request the shipment of a package to a customer:

• Input: customer ID and package ID
• Output: shipment tracking number

The service will do several things:

• check whether or not the package is already available in the warehouse
• check the customer service system to lookup the name, address and "grade" of the customer
  • a grade below 10 will receive standard shipping
  • a grade from 10 and up will receive priority shipping
• ship out the package to the customer

Building and running

Each implementation has a build-and-run.sh script to build and run the code.

Once everything is up-and-running, test using:

curl --header "Content-Type: application/json" \
  --request POST \
  --data '{"customerId":"foo","packageId":"bar"}' \
  http://localhost:8080/ship

The response will look something like this:

{"trackingNumber":"ed164269-3b21-40f8-8248-63893d60fcd3","packageDescription":"Muts","customerName":"Paulus De Boskabouter"}
