TripPlanner

Given a stack of boarding cards for various transportations that will take you from a point A to point B via several stops on the way. All of the boarding cards are out of order and don't know where your journey starts, nor where it ends. So TripPlanner sort those trips.

Setup

To setup one need to have composer and run composer install. Composer is only being used for auto-loading purpose and installing one dependency that is phpspec.

Also run composer dump-autoload.

Usage

Card Format

Card will be available as Associative Array, following is a sample format:

[
    'from' => 'Barcelona',
    'to' => 'Gerona Airport',
    'transport' => [
        'medium' => 'AirportBus',
        'seat' => 'No seat assignment'
    ]
]

Transport can have more or different attributes depends on medium. Here medium specifies different transport types.

API Usage

You can get Trip Description in sorted order using following code, please note that usage.php is example of this API's usage.

$trip = new Trip;
$sortedCards = $trip->sortCards($cards);

$cardManager = new CardManager;
$tripDescription = $trip->getTripDescriptionFromCards($cardManager, $sortedCards);

Here $cards contains array of unsorted cards.

Adding more Transport Types

Any type of Transport implementation must implement Transport interface and provide implementation for:

public function getBoardingCardInfo($card);

and this method should return boarding card info.

In order to adding more transport types, you will also need to add more or different attributes in card's transport associative array. And medium property in transport associative array must have same name as new Transport Class name.

##Tests We are using phpspec for testing purpose which was installed with composer. To run tests use following command: vendor/bin/phpspec run and it will run all tests in specs directory. As tests are unit tests so dependencies are mocked.

##Further More Other than that code can be found in src directory and Tests can be found in spec directory.
