Project Overview
Create a RESTful API for a task management system. The API should support the following function-
alities:
• User Registration and Authentication
• CRUD operations for tasks (Create, Read, Update, Delete)

• Task assignment to users


• Filtering and searching tasks

Requirements
1. User Registration and Authentication
• Users should be able to register with a username and password.
• Passwords should be securely hashed.
• Users should be able to log in and receive a JWT token for authenticated requests.

2. Task Management
• Tasks should have the following fields: id, title, description, status (e.g., Todo, In Progress,
Done), priority, due date, created at, updated at, and user id (to indicate the user the task
is assigned to).
• Users should be able to create, read, update, and delete their tasks.

• Tasks should be assigned to users.

3. Filtering and Searching


• Implement filtering options for tasks based on status, priority, and due date.
• Implement a search functionality to search tasks by title or description.

4. Dockerization
• Create a Dockerfile to containerize the application.
• Provide a docker-compose.yml file to set up the application along with any necessary services
(e.g., database).
• Use of Dockerfile will be considered for additional points.

5. Database
• Use a relational database (e.g., PostgreSQL, MySQL) to store user and task data.
• Use an ORM (e.g., SQLAlchemy for Python, GORM for GoLang, TypeORM for TypeScript) for
database operations.

Bonus Points
• Implement role-based access control (e.g., Admin and User roles).
• Implement pagination for task lists.
• Write unit and integration tests for the API endpoints.
• Set up a CI/CD pipeline (using GitHub Actions, Travis CI, etc.) to run tests and deploy the
application.

Example Endpoints
1. User Registration
POST /api/register
{
"username": "user1",
"password": "password123"
}

2. User Login
POST /api/login
{
"username": "user1",
"password": "password123"
}

3. Create Task
POST /api/tasks
{
"title": "New Task",
"description": "Task description",
"status": "Todo",
"priority": "High",
"due_date": "2024-07-31"
}

4. Get Tasks
GET /api/tasks

5. Update Task
PUT /api/tasks/{taskId}
{
"title": "Updated Task",
"description": "Updated description",
"status": "In Progress",
"priority": "Medium"
}

6. Delete Task
DELETE /api/tasks/{taskId}

Submission Guidelines
Candidates should submit:
• Source code in a GitHub repository.

• Instructions to run the application locally.


• API documentation (e.g., Swagger or Postman collection).
• A brief write-up on their approach and any assumptions made.
