Implementations

There are three API implementations in this repository:

1. Flask/HTTP: This uses Python flask as a front-end to build a simple HTTP API (not RESTful) for announcing and withdrawing routes. This includes a Postman collection and corresponding environment to simplify adoption/testing.

2. gRPC: This uses a custom protobuf services file to define various RPCs supported by the API. It also includes a compilation script for Python source code. Last, it includes dial-in streaming telemetry to count the number of currently-advertised routes.

3. FastAPI/REST: This uses Python fastapi as a front-end to build a REST API using HTTP transport for announcing and withdrawing routes. This includes a Postman collection and corresponding environment to simplify adoption/testing. For simplicity, the example database is an ordinary Python dictionary.

Testing

See .travis.yml for an example of a multi-job CI configuration. To reduce repetitive code, each general phase has been generically implemented in a corresponding bash script.
