Bank Account REST API

The goal of this mini project is to write a simple micro web service to mimic a “Bank Account”. Through this web service, one can query about the balance, deposit money, and withdraw money. Just like any Bank, there are restrictions on how many transactions/amounts it can handle. The details are described below.

• Write a simple “Bank Account” web service using REST API design principles.
• Program should have 3 REST API endpoints: Balance, Deposit, and Withdrawal
• No requirement for authentication assume the web service is for one account only and is open to the world
• No requirement for the backend store you can store it in a file or database (your decision)
• Balance endpoint this will return the outstanding balance
• Deposit endpoint credits the account with the specified amount
  • Max deposit for the day = $150K
  • Max deposit per transaction = $40K
  • Max deposit frequency = 4 transactions/day
• Withdrawal endpoint deducts the account with the specified amount
  • Max withdrawal for the day = $50K
  • Max withdrawal per transaction = $20K
  • Max withdrawal frequency = 3 transactions/day
  • Cannot withdraw when balance is less than withdrawal amount
• The service should handle all the error cases and return the appropriate error HTTP status code and error message (Eg. If an attempt is to withdraw greater than $20k in a single transaction, the error message should say “Exceeded Maximum Withdrawal Per Transaction”).

• $ ./start.sh

curl -X GET http://localhost:8585/balance/ 

curl -H "Content-Type: application/json" -X POST -d '{"amount":25000}' http://localhost:8585/deposit/

curl -H "Content-Type: application/json" -X POST -d '{"amount":15000}' http://localhost:8585/withdrawal/
