This Assignment is Due today!
For this final project component, you will use the skills you gained in
this unit’s study activities to implement a Best Buy store locator
application for Smart Homes using the Ruby language and the Rails
framework. The Ruby on Rails Store Locator requirements are the
following:
The Web application must use Best Buy’s BBYOpen API. The Web application
must contain the following two user interfaces: The application must
start with a Web page that allows the user to enter a zip code and a
desired search radius in miles. Once the required data has been entered
by the user, there should be a submit button to execute the search
request. Upon submitting the search request, the user should be
presented with a Web page that contains a table of stores nearest to
that location. As an option, you may choose any mapping Web service
(such as Google Maps) to display the search results onto a map. Your
completed Ruby on Rails Store Locator solution should do the following:
Demonstrate your ability to implement a non-trivial Web application
using the Ruby programming language and Rails framework. Demonstrate
your ability to integrate third-party application programming interfaces
to communicate with a Web service. Demonstrate your ability to implement
a user interface that accepts user input without error.
