Yelp Sample app.

Design/Architecture considerations

• The chosen architecure is Model-View-ViewModel
• Because of the nature of the app. Search -> Results -> Details. The model is not persistent
• Searches are cached for 15 minutes.
• App is implemented using Jetpack's architecture components.
  • Live Data
  • Navigation
  • ViewModel
  • Databinding
• Dependency Injection using dagger 2.

Running

• Yelp Client Id and API Key must be included in local.properties
  • Example:

    yelpClientId="CLIENT_ID"
    yelpAPIKEY="API_KEY"
  

Tests

• Unit tests and integration tests are included.

TODO/Out of Scope

• Yelp search endpoint requires lat/lon, getting the user's location is not implemented and location is Defaulted to NYC. (Lots of businesses)
• Search list will show up to 50 results. Paging/Infinite scroll is not implemented.
• Espresso Idling resources are not implemented.
• Test coverage is not complete.
