Take Home Assessment

Create an API that takes in a year (YYYY format) and returns the one page of movies for that year sorted by descending popularity.

Your service should not fail if the movie credit API fails. The list of editors (retrieved by credits API) is optional in your reponse.

Page is a parameter the API you will be integrating with.

The response will be an array of movies containing

• Title
• Release Date
• Vote Average
• A list of Editors

Following APIs will be used to get data

• Discover Movie API: https://developer.themoviedb.org/reference/discover-movie
• Movie Credit API: https://developer.themoviedb.org/reference/movie-credits

Discover Movie API Request: Year will be set by the user of your API https://api.themoviedb.org/3/discover/movie?language=en-US&page=1&primary_release_year=&sort_by=popularity.desc

Movie Credit API: https://developer.themoviedb.org/reference/movie-credits

To find editors filter for known_for_department and use name property

Do not commit your bearer token to the repo; use an ignored .env file

Example

For 2019, the response should include the following object Note the order of the editors names does not matter;

[
    {
        title: 'Joker'
        release_date: 'January 1, 2019'
        vote_average: 8.19,
        editors: [
            "Jill Bogdanowicz",
            "Jason Saulog",
            "Cindy Bond",
            "Jeff Groth",
            "Jeff Mee",
            "Ray Neapolitan",
            "Thomas J. Cabela"
        ]
    }
]

Your API should be able to be run and tested by CVS Team with our own bearer token.
