Hello World micro API

[rnagulapalle]

Summary

Shipped a minimal FastAPI application with a single GET /hello endpoint that returns a JSON payload containing a static message and the current UTC ISO 8601 timestamp. The project is fully containerized with Docker and includes a comprehensive test suite, requiring no database or authentication.

Changes

• feat: Created app.py with a GET /hello endpoint returning {"message": "hello world", "timestamp": "<ISO 8601 UTC>"}
• feat: Added Dockerfile and docker-compose.yml for turnkey containerized local development
• feat: Added pinned requirements.txt with FastAPI and Uvicorn dependencies
• test: Built complete test suite validating response status, JSON schema, message value, ISO 8601 timestamp format, 404 on unknown routes, and method-not-allowed behavior
• docs: Created RUNNING.md with startup instructions, sample curl command, and TEAM_BRIEF section

Testing

Automated tests written with pytest and httpx/TestClient covering the GET /hello happy path (status 200, correct JSON keys, exact message value, valid ISO 8601 UTC timestamp), 404 on non-existent routes, and 405 method-not-allowed. All tests pass.

Running Locally

docker compose build

docker compose up -d

curl http://localhost:8000/hello

URL: http://localhost:8000
