Simple Personality Test API

Simple Personality-Test REST API for the Personality Test App built on Java8, Spark Web Framework, ORM Lite, Moshi, and MariaDB

Introduction

The API receives and returns only JSON application/json.

Each response JSON body has a status key which is an integer and a data key which contains the data pertaining to that response.

Status value 200 means Success, with the requested information in the data key.
Status value 500 means that an error occurred, and it will return a string description of the error under the data key.
