Create a Plant Tracker app, that will allow us to track when plants need to be watered, when they were last watered, who is responsible for the next watering. It will also contain interesting information about the plant’s needs/origins.

• JavaSE 17
• SpringBoot 3.3.0
• Hibernate

• Spring Web
• Spring Boot DevTools
• PostgreSQL Driver
• Spring Data JPA
• Java.util

1. install Postgres (via homebrew or Postgresapp).
2. create a database createdb planttracker_db in Terminal.
3. Install Java.
4. clone this project to your computer and run main() in PlantTrackerApplication.
5. Import routes collection api_plant_tracker.postman_collection.json from repo to your Postman collection.
6. Run each endpoint to view the result.

• Create Plant model with following properties and getters and setters for each one:

  • id
  • name
  • priority
  • lasWatered
  • country
  • duties
  • intervalBetweenWatering

• Create Country model with following properties and getters and setters for each one:

  • id
  • name
  • climate is of enummeration type Climate with following values
    • TROPICAL
    • DRY
    • TEMPERATE
    • CONTINENTAL
    • POLAR
  • plants

  Climate enumeration uses instance ofCondition class as a value.

• Create Duty model with following properties and getters and setters for each one:

  • id
  • plant
  • person

• Create Person model with following properties and getters and setters for each one:

  • id
  • name
  • duties

• Create PlantService in services package with following methods:

  • provideInstruction(long): String
  • waterPlant(long): Plant
  • plantInformation(long): String
  • addNewPlant(PlantDTO): Plant
  • getPlantById(long): Optional<Plant>
  • updatePlantPartial(long, Map< String, String>): Plant
  • updatePlantFull(Long, PlantDTO): Plant
  • deletePlant(long): void

• Create CountryService in services package with following methods:

  • addNewCountry(CountryDTO): Country
  • getCountryById(long): Optional<Country>
  • getAllCountries(void): List<Country>
  • updateCountryName(long, String): Country
  • updateCountryClimate(long, Climate): Country
  • fullUpdateCountry(CountryDTO, long): Country
  • deleteCountry(long): void
  • deletePlantFromCountry(long): void

• Create DutyService in services package with following methods:

  • addNewDuty(DutyDTO): Duty
  • getAllDuties(void): List<Duty>
  • getDutyById(long): Optional<Duty>
  • updateDutyPlant(long, long): Duty
  • updateDutyPerson(long, long): Duty
  • updateDutyFull(long, long, long): Duty
  • deleteDuty(long): void

• Create PersonService in service package with following methods:

  • addNewPerson(String): Person
  • getPersonById(long): Optional<Person>
  • getAllPeople(void): List<Person>
  • updatePerson(long, String): Person
  • deletePerson(long): void

• Create PersonRepository, PlantRepository, CountryRepository and DutyRepository in repositories package.

• Create PersonController, PlantController, CountryController and DutyController in controllers package. Each controller must contain the routes displayed in the Routes table above.

• Add a feature to display countdown time ie. the number of days until next watering date.
  • getCountdownTime(long): String
• Refactor DutyService and DutyController to prevent adding duty if a person or a plant already exist in a duties table. Following methods for DutyService:
  • personExists(long): boolean
  • plantExists(long): boolean

DutyRepository should contain following derived queries:

• findAllByPersonId(Long): List<Duty>
• findAllByPlantId(Long): List<Duty>
