Comp 152 Project 5:
Teams, APIs, third party libraries and a bigger project

Due:  Sun Dec 8th at 11:59pm (with Thanksgiving in between now and then, this is not that long away)

Intermediate deliverable Due Date: Nov 25th/26th in class.

Summary:

This project will give you a chance to work with json, RESTful apis, windowed programs with JavaFX, and learn a bit from documentation.

You will work in groups of three (except for the odd numbered groups when the class size mod 3 isn't zero)

If you are in a group of 4, make the project public on the due date (not before) and invite me to join that day.

• Make a window which run first and provide a way to select the other windows below.
• Everybody in the group is responsible for the original window. Each person should build out their own method to handle opening a new window. Be sure to communicate with each other so that you don't mangle each others work. Each student in the group needs to push their own commit or make a pull request to make include their own part of this window and event handlers.
• I will be assigning credit on this project for github commits/pull requests, so everyone in the group has to make their own commits and pull requests.
• Each person will then choose one of the possibilities below, claim it, and implement it.
• Query the specified API, retrieve the data, and display it on a JavaFX window that has a good control layout to be able to see all of the data in an easy to understand manner.
• Each of these smaller windows should use the Model View Controller pattern with at least three classes, one for each.

Possible APIs and windows (each person in the group needs to pick one - not more than one per group can do the same one) You cannot use Alert or JAvaFX Dialogs for any of this. all the data collection and display must be on javaFX stage windows that you create in code or in FXML

Your group will only be using 3-4 (depending on group size) of these 6 APIs.

1. Currency Exchange
1. use this currency exchange API: https://www.exchangerate-api.com/
2. display 8 currency choices for the user to choose from.
3. allow the user to enter an amount in the currency X
1. when the user make a choice of currency
2. display the exchange rates with other currencies
1. and the amount of the other currencies that your previously entered amount X would translate to.
2. The Joke API
1. use this joke api: https://sv443.net/jokeapi
2. allow the user to select one of the four acceptable types of jokes (Miscellaneous/Programming/Dark/Any) be sure to use radio buttons or menus or something, don't lest the user type it in.
3. allow the user to block one or more of the joke types they don't want to see {NSFW, religious or political}
4. after allowing the user to select all the constraints, make sure there is a way for the user to get the joke from the api
5. display the joke in a reasonable format
1. If you get a twopart joke back, only show the setup till the user indicates they are ready for the puchline.
3. Makeup
1. use this makeup API http://makeup-api.herokuapp.com/
1. allow your users to set values for at least three of the search parameters at the bottom of the api documentation page
2. send the API information and put the result name into a list box, when the user selects the particular type of makeup from the listbox, display price, description, brand and at least one other piece of information in your UI
4. The github jobs API
1. use this API - be sure to use the json version https://jobs.github.com/api
2. let the user select several features to be part of the search:
1. including: description, location, Full_time (as a checkbox since this needs to be true or false)and at least one of the other constraints.
3. then let the user start the data retrieval process, when you get the data back, put it in a listview, showing job title, when the user clicks on a job in the list view, show the job details in the window including
1. company
2. job location
3. apply url
4. description
5. one more data item for the returned data.
5. Use this weather API
1. use this API https://www.metaweather.com/api/
1. in particular scroll down to the section that say location search
1. first let the user choose a city to read from. Use the location API on the city name to get the woeid
2. then use that woeid to get the weather for the next several days and display it using a list view(to choose the day's weather) and several javafx controls to display the details. You can;t just dump it in one single text area
   
6. the Star Wars API
1. use this star wars API: https://swapi.co/documentation
2. let your user search on either a character or a planet
3. when the data comes back, follow the API links in the returned data to get the name of the characters home planet, their starship (if any) their species, and the movies they were in. (also include the character's name, height, and birth year.
4. for planets display the names of the residents and the films it was in, along with its name, climate and population.

• which API each person is responsible for
• A short summary of what your group has accomplished so far.
