Base64 Comparator

This is WAES assigment to save and compare Base64 datas with Rest endpoints.

The assignment

• Provide 2 http endpoints that accepts JSON base64 encoded binary data on both endpoints

  • <host'>/v1/diff/<ID'>/left and <host'>/v1/diff/<ID'>/right

• The provided data needs to be diff-ed and the results shall be available on a third end point

  • <host'>/v1/diff/<id'>

• The results shall provide the following info in JSON format

  • If equal return that
  • If not of equal size just return that
  • If of same size provide insight in where the diffs are, actual diffs are not needed.
    • So mainly offsets + length in the data

• Make assumptions in the implementation explicit, choices are good but need to be communicated
