Overview of My Submission

This is an API made with Spring Web, uses springdoc-openapi-ui to expose a swagger-ui on http://localhost:8080/swagger-ui/index.html

Using datasets from kaggle we load up Redis with movies and TV show information and then it provides endpoints to query the database.

jedis is used to interact with Redis.

Removies

Removies is an api that lets you search movies and tv shows information from a database of movies from several streaming services.

How it works

How the data is stored:

The data is stored as JSON documents using RedisJSON

public void insert(String key, MediaDTO mediaDTO) {
  jedisPooled.jsonSet(key, gson.toJson(mediaDTO))
}

MediaDTO is the object to be inserted but first it needs to be represented as JSON so we use gson for that.

How the data is accessed:

To access data several indexes need to be created Then RediSearch is used to make queries.

jedisPooled.ftSearch(
    "titleIdx", new Query("@title:(" + cleanTitle + ")").returnFields("title"));
}
