You are tasked with building a mobile app for a ride-sharing service similar to Uber or Lyft. The app should allow users to request rides, track their location in real-time, and display nearby drivers on a map. Additionally, the app should provide a web-based dashboard for drivers to manage ride requests, track their earnings, and update their availability status.
How would you design and implement the architecture for this system, ensuring smooth communication between the Android app and the web-based dashboard? Discuss the key components, APIs, and protocols you would use to handle real-time location tracking, ride requests, and driver management, while maintaining security and data consistency across both platforms.
Asked by: Wouadud al ReonFollow these steps:
Android Location Update:
LocationManager locationManager = (LocationManager) getSystemService(Context.LOCATION_SERVICE);
LocationListener locationListener = new LocationListener() {
public void onLocationChanged(Location location) {
// Send location data to the backend API
// ...
}
};
locationManager.requestLocationUpdates(LocationManager.GPS_PROVIDER, 0, 0, locationListener);
Ride Request API:
app.post('/ride/request', (req, res) => {
const rideRequest = req.body;
// Store ride request in the database
// ...
// Notify nearby drivers via push notifications
// ...
res.status(200).json({ message: 'Ride request sent successfully' });
});
Driver Availability API:
app.put('/driver/availability', (req, res) => {
const { driverId, isAvailable } = req.body;
// Update driver availability status in the database
// ...
res.status(200).json({ message: 'Availability status updated successfully' });
});
Web Dashboard Code Snippets:
// Fetch driver earnings from the backend API
const fetchDriverEarnings = async (driverId) => {
const response = await fetch(`/driver/earnings/${driverId}`);
const data = await response.json();
return data.earnings;
};
// Update driver availability status
const updateDriverAvailability = async (driverId, isAvailable) => {
await fetch('/driver/availability', {
method: 'PUT',
headers: {
'Content-Type': 'application/json'
},
body: JSON.stringify({ driverId, isAvailable })
});
};
