Levvel Technical Interview

Project Setup

• Fork the repository and clone the repository to your local machine. Documentation on how to do this https://docs.github.com/en/get-started/quickstart/fork-a-repo
• open the project locally
• Create a branch using the naming convention yourFirstName_yourLastName. This is where you work should be saved.
• Run the project from the WorkSampleApplication class
• The application will start on http://localhost:8080

Existing State

This is a simple REST application for serving a blog.
It uses Spring Framework, Maven, Java 11, Lombok and data is stored in a Mongo database.

Currently the application has 2 endpoints:

1) To add a blog post - Post at /blog/post
2) To get a blog post by id - Get at /blog/post/{id}

Task

Your task is to add a commenting feature.

You should add two new endpoints.

1) Post at /blog/post/{1}/comment - which should create a new comment for a post with passed {id}

2) Get at /blog/post/{1}/comment - which should return all comments for a post with passed {id}

Under the resources folder are example json files for both a Blog and a Comment.

Feel free to modify existing files or create new files. You may add new dependencies if you choose. Please follow the conventions in place throughout the project.

Please spend no more than 4 hours on this task

Submitting Your Work (IMPORTANT)

When you are finished, create a Pull Request in Github for the forked repository. This Pull Request should compare your created branch to the main branch. Email the link to your Pull Request to nicole.chini@levvel.io at least 24 hours prior to your technical interview

Please make sure your Pull Request is for your forked repo, NOT the original repo
