Fake API

A tiny script + CSV to fake the API of House Group Holiday Rentals.

How to run

Create a dedicated venv and install the packages listed in requirements.txt.
Move your terminal to this directory and run python3 fake_api.py.
This will start the API and serve it on port 5000 until you stop it with Ctrl+C.

How to request

The API has a single endpoint /api/bookings. This endpoint implements pagination, sorting and some basic filtering. You can find below a few curl calls and their responses to get an idea of how the API works. You can start a new terminal after you got the API running and use them to test that the API is running fine.

Bookings for a certain check-in date:

curl "http://localhost:5000/api/bookings?check_in_date=2024-10-01"

{
  "page": 1,
  "per_page": 2,
  "results": [
    {
      "booking_id": "b3c810d6-8ab9-41f5-9810-ed809d1d1c64",
      "check_in_date": "2024-06-20 22:12:04",
