Welcome to the Inventory Report project!

This project is an inventory report generator. It receives data from CSV, JSON, or XML files and generates a report on this data in Python using Object-Oriented Programming (OOP) concepts. It outputs two versions of the report: a simple and a complete version.

I've also implemented some tests in this project using the Pytest library.

This was my first project using OOP with Python. At the time, I was studying Desing Patterns and one of the objectives of this project was to practice the use of the Strategy and Iterator patterns. It was definetely a challenge to use both OOP and Design Patterns, but I enjoyed the journey! It was also challenging to work with files, especially XML, which is a type of data I'm not used with.

This project was developed while studying Computer Science @betrybe. I got approval on 100% of this project's requirements.

The files I worked on are in the inventory_report/importer, inventory_report/inventory (except products.py), inventory_report/reports (except colored_report.py) folders, and also the following files: main.py, test_product.py, test_product_report.py and test_report_decorator.py.

Main languages and tools used

• Python
• Pytest
• Design Patterns
• Venv

Installation

• Clone the repository
• Create a virtual environment with python3 -m venv .venv and start it with source .venv/bin/activate
• Install the dependencies with python3 -m pip install -r dev-requirements.txt
• Run the project with inventory_report argument1 argument2, where argument1 is the path to a csv, json or xml file, and argument2 is the type of report (simples or completo). You can use the files available at inventory_report/data
• Run the tests with python3 -m pytest or python3 -m pytest tests/filename.py
