Arm Movement

This application controls the movement of an arm using the asyncio concurrency technique.

Remarks

• The responsiveness of the application was achieved using asyncio.
• According to the task description, the function that moves the arm should have only two arguments: distance and direction. Therefore, I assume that the system has only one arm. If there were multiple arms, the function would need an additional argument to identify the arm.
• The interfaces of the arm components don't include an arm identifier. Therefore, I use a static method, which applies to all instances of the component classes.
• The project uses Poetry for dependency management, pytest for testing, and pylint and black for code checking and formatting, respectively.

Start the Application

1. Clone the Git repository: git clone https://github.com/AnnaShcherenko/ArmMovement.git

2. Create a virtual environment and install the dependencies: poetry config virtualenvs.path "{path to your local folder}/.env" poetry install

3. Activate the virtual environment: poetry shell

4. Run the Python module: poetry run python -m app.main

5. To run the tests: poetry run pytest

Please replace {path to your local folder} with the actual path to your local folder.
