Take Home coding task (AppCenter)

Console app (basic TS/Nest implementation) for building all the branches in any App Center app

What does it show

Initializing building order

Like so:

Build in queue: branch1

Build in queue: branch2

etc

Displaying info about builds in the console

Build succeeded: branch1

 Logs: *link*

 Build time: 116.235 seconds


Build failed: branch2

 Logs: *link*

etc

Exception handling and retry logic

Error can't be resolved after all the retries. Please fix it in order to make script work probably.

How to set up

• Clone the repository to your local machine
• Make sure that NPM and Node.js are installed on your computer:

node -v
 npm -v

• open project folder in your terminal and enter npm i to install all the necessary packages
• copy env.example file and create your own .env file based on it.

---

You need to provide USER (your account' nickname in App Center), APP (name of the app you want to build) and TOKEN (App Center User token OR the App token of the chosen app) variables in order to make script work

You can test the workability using already provided env variables - one branch always builds successfully, while other is completely empty

---

• in console, enter npm run build
• after building the app - npm run start

That's it!

What can be improved later

Staging

Build in queue: branch1

Build in queue: branch2

Build in progress: branch1

Displaying build time

Build time: 1 min 10 sec
