Speedy Python task 6 : Implementing Framework, Database, and Core Functionality for Role-Based Application System

[Mingtianfang-Li]

Description

This PR introduces the foundational structure and functionality for a role-based application system. Below is a high-level summary of the changes made and the rationale behind them:

Framework and Database

• Framework: Utilized FastAPI for its high-performance, asynchronous capabilities, and scalable API development.
• Database: Chose SQLite for its lightweight and efficient management of relational data, meeting the requirements of a structured schema.

Database Design

• Role-Based User Management: Designed modular schemas to handle candidates, recruiters, and admins with unified access control mechanisms.
• Detailed Info Structure: Implemented flexible profile structures to capture education, employment, and additional support data effectively.

CRUD and API Development

• CRUD Framework: Established a foundational CRUD framework to enable role-specific operations.
• APIs: Developed APIs for:
  • User data management.
  • Candidate search and filter functionalities.
  • Detailed candidate information CRUD operations.

Testing

• Test Strategy: Developed test cases early in the project lifecycle to focus on both basic and edge cases.
• Goal: This proactive approach minimized bugs and technical debt, ensuring robust and reliable functionality.
