Yelp

This is a Yelp search app using the Yelp API

Time spent: 20

Features

• view restaurants information (& only restaurants) from yelp
• can search restaurant list; search queries pull data as the user types
• can alter the restaurant list via filters on any combination of:
  • whether the restaurant is offering deals
  • the sort order
  • the distance from your location
  • the category, or cuisine, of choice
• auto-layouts are used everywhere so that the app will work regardless of orientation or ios hardware
• the location for queries is sourced using gps... if allowed. If not, then the location is somewhere in the soma district of San Francisco.
• app icon changed (iphone6 / ios8+)
• app launch screen changed (iphone6 / ios8+)
• images are loaded asynchronously
• a loading display appears while network activity is happening in the background

Required

• Search results page
  • Table rows should be dynamic height according to the content height
  • Custom cells should have the proper Auto Layout constraints
  • Search bar should be in the navigation bar (doesn't have to expand to show location like the real Yelp app does).
• Filter page. Unfortunately, not all the filters are supported in the Yelp API.
  • The filters you should actually have are: category, sort (best match, distance, highest rated), radius (meters), deals (on/off).
  • The filters table should be organized into sections as in the mock.
  • You can use the default UISwitch for on/off states. Optional: implement a custom switch
  • Clicking on the "Search" button should dismiss the filters page and trigger the search w/ the new filter settings.
  • Display some of the available Yelp categories (choose any 3-4 that you want).

Optional

• [-] Search results page
  • Infinite scroll for restaurant results
  • Implement map view of restaurant results
• [-] Filter page
  • Radius filter should expand as in the real Yelp app
  • Categories should show a subset of the full list with a "See All" row to expand. Category list is here: http://www.yelp.com/developers/documentation/category_list (Links to an external site.)
• Implement the restaurant detail page.
