AM NEW TO CIVICRM AND I NEED TO CREATE AN EXTENTION FOR A JOB INTERVIEW PLS HELP

This is the task. i have been making research but am confused pls i need help guys :-[

Create a CiviCRM extension which shows a new CiviCRM contact tab which displays a list of the personal campaign pages that a contact has created.

The tab should show the personal campaign page title (with a link to the page), status, contribution page or event that it is funding for, no of contributions, amount raised, target amount and a link to the edit page form.



Bonus points will be obtained by:

- Creating a new CiviCRM API for the CiviCRM personal campaign page entity (and submitting a pull request for this) and using angular JS for your contact tab extension
- Include a simple unit test for your new API
- Adding a feature so that by clicking the number of donations a list of these is shown in the contribution search by using the force=1 parameter.
- Ensuring compatibility with CiviCRM v4.6 and v4.7

I don't know who's interviewing you, but you might not want to work for them--they're giving you a very sizable task with no guidance.  For someone who doesn't know their way around CiviCRM, this is a cruel assignment, and for someone who does know what they're doing, it's extracting hundreds of dollars of free work from them for the chance at having a job.

It's also way too broad in scope for a decent forum question: just the question of using hook_civicrm_tabset vs. hook_civicrm_tabs would be a conversation in itself.

Anyway, if you do work out a solution, make sure you get paid well for it: an organization talked at length with several CiviCRM partners about a project that would include, among other things, precisely this new tab mentioned here.  My shop's estimate was too high for them, but if the place you're interviewing won't compensate you for your work, I could put you in touch with that group, because I'm sure they'd value it.

Best wishes in your job search!

Andrew
