Current issues with design

- [How to make client and server communicate so that client listens for changes in DB continuously]
- How will the driver know when the user has requested a ride in his location
- How will the user know when the driver nearby has accepted his ride
- Live tracking the driver in user app

Android app progress Git-link

• Sign in for user
• Login for user
• Current location
• Test users [phone_no : password] Currently 2 users
  • 123456789 : 123
  • 987654321 : 123

User requirements

- Able to select destination on map
- Gets fare and ETA estimate before booking
- [Optional] Optimize so that nearest drivers are shown in map on user side
  [nearest drivers can be chosen by ETA or Euclidean distance]
- Book the ride
- Route the path to driver
- Able to cancel ride
- Emergency contact option
- Receives notification when ride arrives
- Route path to destination
- Ride completes and receives bill receipt as notification
- Payment interface GooglePay

Driver requirements

- Receives notification to accept ride or not
- When accepted route the path to user
- After reaching route path to destination
- Show bill amount after ride

• [Optional] Optimize so that route from driver to user, user to destination, bill, ETA is calculated for both user and driver ONLY ONCE

API server side

• Running Gunicorn with Flask hosted on Heroku [Heroku identifies code push to git and deploys auto]
• Use https://cab-now.herokuapp.com/ as BASE_URL [end points vary on functionality]

Database

- [New db design is yet to be made] Use two json files for user and driver
- All the files in the git repo are hosted on the server in the same directory.

• Detailed HTTP status codes documentation here
