Modeling Amazing Company's structure, so we can do awesome stuff.

The company business units have been modelled as a collection of directed acyclic graphs — or, a forest of trees, if you will. TreeShift is a microservice that provides HTTP endpoints for:

1. Retrieving all descendant nodes of a given node
2. Change the parent node of a given node

Further documentation can be found in the doc directory. See design.md for design considerations, and status.md for the current status of the project.

The focus of this project is to produce a functioning proof of concept, so I will be leaving out some parts that are important for production code. There will be no authentication or authorization. The database structure is simple enough I'll leave out migrations (e.g. Flyway). I will also leave out a number of infrastructure concerns, such as continuous deployment pipeline, container scaling, and secrets management (i.e. there will be hardcoded database credentials).

Prerequisites: Java 11, Gradle (or use the Gradle wrapper), Docker, Docker Compose.

Get up and running by issuing the following commands:

./gradlew jibDockerBuild
docker-compose up

This will build the Spring Boot project, build a Docker image tagged as amazingco/treeshift:latest, and spin up docker containers for the database and the application. The application exposes services on port 9000, and the database accepts connections on port 5432.

For development, run ./gradlew bootRun --args='--spring.profiles.active=local'. This will start the application in development mode, exposed on port 8080. Be sure to define your development version ending in "-SNAPSHOT" in build.gradle. This enables Spring Boot DevTools, so performing a build in your IDE triggers an application reload.

Perform integration tests by doing ./gradlew cleanTest test, which will print test results to the console as well as generate a report in build/reports/tests/test/index.html.

The application initially has no data in its database. You can load a sample organisational tree using the "import-tree" endpoint, e.g. curl -X POST -H "Content-Type: application/json" http://localhost:9000/api/org-units/import-tree --data @doc/sample-tree.json.

• GET "/api/org-units/{id}/flat" Returns the node specified by {id} and all its descendants as a flat list of nodes.
• GET "/api/org-units/{id}/tree" Returns the node specified by {id} and all its descendants as a tree structure.
• GET "/api/org-units/{id}/is-descendant-of/{parentId}" Returns 'true' if the node specified by {id} is a descendant of {parentId}, otherwise 'false'.
• POST "/api/org-units/{id}/move-to/{newParentId}" Changes the parent of the node specified by {id} to the new parent specified by {newParentId}. Updates height and rootId for all descendants.
• POST /api/org-units/import-tree" Imports a tree in JSON format to the database. This is a very low-level endpoint with no validation, so make sure the data is correct! See the doc/sample-tree.json file for an example of the tree structure.
