Winter Project

Step out of your comfort zone and feel the pain! Good times! :) The project completion date is April 16th, 2013. If this interests you, please see the tasks list and select an unassigned task or feel free to suggest an additional goal! :)

The peidevs MEAN team has selected a project:

Government Services Alerts

This project will encompass the MEAN JavaScript technologies in a decoupled structure.

  • MongoDB (JSON ready, NoSQL database)
  • Express.js ( node framework)
  • Angular.js (works well with jQuery)
  • Node.js (event-driven, asynchronous, single-threaded execution model)
    and
  • Jasmine.js (BDD framework for testing JavaScript code)

Additional technologies may include, but are not limited to:

The initial concept is that a User would like to subscribe to notifications or alerts of services provided by the Provincial Government. Possible scenarios could include: street closures; waste-management notifications for regular and special pickups; special events notifications (this can be broken into categories: social, political, musical, children), etc.

Caveat

As there is not currently a public API available for scraping we will provide sample data for upcoming Alerts: service, service_type, status).
