Random Reviews

Requires

• php >= 7.1
  • php-mysql
  • php-xml
• composer >= 1.6.5
• mysql >= 5.7.22

Running

In the project directory, run:

composer install

Then edit the .env file and set the DATABASE_URL variable to the location of a database.

Then run these commands:

php bin/console doctrine:migrations:migrate
php bin/console doctrine:fixtures:load
php bin/console server:run

Then go to localhost:8000/{hotelId}/today/review to view a random review for the given hotelId.

Caching

Server-side caching was attempted in src/Repository/HotelRepository.php, but cache items wouldn't expire after the set expiry time. So currently it just clears the cache upon each request to demonstrate different reviews being returned.
