Setup

Run the following commands in the terminal:

• docker compose up --detach
• docker compose exec php bash
  • composer install
  • bin/console doctrine:migrations:migrate
  • bin/console app:crawl

Crawling only has to be done once and will take 4~5 minutes to complete due to built-in delays.
Once completed, you'll have a running environment with a local copy of the Rick and Morty data.

Usage

The following commands are created as per the assignment;

• meeseeks:character:character
• meeseeks:character:episode
• meeseeks:character:location

All of these commands support searching via name, API ID, and API url. Use the -h or --help for more details and possible other search methods.

Assignment

Here you quickly reference how to test the assignment requirements.

• Show all characters that exist (or are last seen) in a given dimension
  • meeseeks:character:location --dimension "name of dimension"
• Show all characters that exist (or are last seen) at a given location
  • meeseeks:character:location --name "name of location"
    • this will show you results of this location across ALL dimensions
    • if you want only those of a specific dimension, specify it in the search string
    • example: "Earth (C-137)"
  • meeseeks:character:location --id "id of location"
• Show all characters that partake in a given episode
  • meeseeks:character:episode --name "name of episode"
  • meeseeks:character:episode --code "episode code"
    • episode code is SxxEyy where xx is a 2-digit season number and yy is a 2-digit episode number
    • example: "S01E4" fetches the 4th episode of the 1st season
  • meeseeks:character:episode --id "episode number"
    • episode number across all seasons correlates with the episode ID
    • example: episode 4 is episode 4 of season 1
    • example: episode 12 is episode 2 of season 2
• Showing all information of a character (Name, species, gender, last location, dimension, etc)
  • this has been implemented as the output of the above commands
