(June 16th, 2022)

Implementation of the All Recent Jobs page in the UI started. The response from the /jobs endpoint was used in order to get the data from the backend server

Response format of the API:

At first MDBReact datatable was used to render the data but further discussions on optimising the page the idea was scrapped and X-Total-pages header was used to get the data from the server in already paginated form.

Final UI of the All Recent jobs page after the discussions looks like:

My Recent Jobs Page​

The same API endpoint was used in My Recent Jobs page and the logged in user's UID was fetched from the getUserSelf() function. MDBReact table was used here and this requires change to the same UI as of /allRecentJobs page.

Search in Browse Page​

There was a search-bar present in the Browse page but, there was no function implented to make the search work. Thus introduced a search function which filters the API response as per the query data and only renders the value which is asked by the user.

Conclusion and Further Plans​

  • Currently will be impleneting the My Recent Jobs page and will be introducing a row style pagination navigator as discussed with the mentors.
  • The REST API for /jobs endpoint also needs a rework as it needs to send the processes as a subgroup of its respective job rather than sending all the processes at once.
  • Other filters in the Browse page aslo needs to be implemented as the UI is ready but there is no funtion implemented.
