This project was generated with Angular CLI version 1.0.6.
Create a Web display that uses the Wikipedia API to display a list of all current images on the New Jersey Wikipedia page with the username (if any) of the account that uploaded each image.
Upon starting the application server in an appropriate environment, the web client bootstraps a single-page Angular v4 application. The client provides an interface for selecting alternative Wikipedia pages to query for imagery, defaulting first to the "New Jersey" value described in above Problem Definition. Results are displayed in a formatted table, with an optional button to toggle the display to a Masonry grid with images lazy-loaded in sequence.
The input for selecting alternative Wikipedia pages makes use of a typeahead suggestion directive that queries the Wikipedia API for search terms. With more time, this should be moved from the client as a JSONP query to the existing back-end API service. The current implementation was mostly borrowed from the ng-bootstrap typeahead directive Wikipedia suggestion example.
The application requires a Node.js engine of 7.x and contains a set of Docker files for running an Ubuntu instance configured with OS dependencies installed. Final preparations require npm install within the /app/test1 directory for untracked npm dependencies. The optional .env file contains a config setting that can be un-commented for Windows (at least pre-10) support.
The compiled Angular application is tracked in the repo, though this would not be the case in a production environment. The intention is to remove the requirement for @angular/cli dependency to run the demonstration.
Run npm start for a dev server. Navigate to http://localhost:3200/. If run through the Docker instance, replace "localhost" with the instance IP address.
Run ng generate component component-name to generate a new component. You can also use ng generate directive|pipe|service|class|module.
Run ng build to build the project. The build artifacts will be stored in the dist/ directory. Use the -prod flag for a production build. The npm run build:watch command allows the application to rebuild the compiled Angular application upon file changes for development purposes.
Run ng test to execute the unit tests via Karma.
Run ng e2e to execute the end-to-end tests via Protractor.
Before running the tests make sure you are serving the app via ng serve.
