A Microservices architecture implementation using NestJS, The project contains two services (Genres and Movies) utilising PostgreSQL. Each microservice consists basic actions (index, show, insert, and delete)
The minimal fields for Genres are name and description. For Movies, the minimal fields are name, description, release date, Genre(s), duration and rating.
Project contains mainly 3 parts, API Gateway, MovieService, GenreService. All these 3 are dockerized and dependencies are boostrapped using docker compose files
API Gateway uses Redis as message broker to perform communication with microservices
These instructions will get you a copy of the project up and running on your local machine for development and testing purposes. See deployment for notes on how to deploy the project on a live system.
Clone webflix Git repo
git clone https://github.com/msanjeevkumar/webflix.git
Make sure docker is installed on the system
Currently, we are using Yarn (instead of npm), so make sure you have latest Yarn version installed before running the project:
npm install -g yarn@latest
Install dependencies
yarn install
Start the application by the following command
docker-compose -f "docker-compose.dev.yml" up -d --build
Stop the application by the following command
docker-compose -f "docker-compose.dev.yml" down
Now the application will be running at http://localhost:3000
yarn test
I have added swagger OpenAPI support for the project
Swagger UI can be accessed at http://localhost:3000/swagger
Deployment to heroku is achieved through a bash script currently
bash ./deploy.sh
You can check the project running live at https://webflixapi.herokuapp.com/swaggermov
