Hello, thank you for taking the time to review my code test.

This program has 1 POST endpoint /outages which takes a siteId. The program then gets the outages and the site info for the given site id, filters and maps this data into a new list, then posts this processed data to the site-outages endpoint.

About

This is a Java 17 Spring Boot program written in IntelliJ IDEA.

I used PostMan to test the API.

Bonus Requirements: It uses spring-retry to retry the API if it fails.

How to run the program

1. Open app folder in IntelliJ IDEA.
2. Add an environment variable for the API key. Go to AppApplication.java, right click the main method -> Modify Run Configuration... and add the variable apiKey and set to the api key. I didn't want to commit this because that wouldn't be secure. I've asked my recruitment contact to pass on the starter .zip folder I was given, which had the API key in it.
3. Run AppApplication with the main method.
4. Call a POST request to http://localhost:8080/outages with a body of norwich-pear-tree. This will do as you've asked in the task.

How to run the tests

1. In IntelliJ IDEA, right click the test folder and select Run 'Tests in 'app.test''.
