AWeber - Code Sample - Widget REST API

Write a CRUD REST API using Python for a single resource type. You may use a framework

The application must satisfy these requirements:

• Written in Python 3.8 or later.
• Endpoints to create, read, list, update, and delete objects called "Widgets"
• Widget objects include the following properties (at least):
  • Name (utf8 string, limited to 64 chars)
  • Number of parts (integer)
  • Created date (date, automatically set)
  • Updated date (date, automatically set)
• Widgets are persisted to and retrieved from a SQLite file database.
• Include a README that describes how to setup and run the application.

Ideas to make the project even better:

• Include unit or functional test coverage
• Include an OpenAPI spec
• PEP8 compliance
• Pass standard lint tests (ie: flake8 or similar)
• Pass bandit security analysis
• Use Python type annotations
