Udagram Image Filtering Microservice

Udagram is a simple cloud application developed alongside the Udacity Cloud Engineering Nanodegree. It allows users to register and log into a web client, post photos to the feed, and process photos using an image filtering microservice.

The project is split into three parts:

1. The Simple Frontend A basic Ionic client web application which consumes the RestAPI Backend. [Covered in the course]
2. The RestAPI Backend, a Node-Express server which can be deployed to a cloud service. [Covered in the course]
3. The Image Filtering Microservice, the final project for the course. It is a Node-Express application which runs a simple script to process images.

You'll need to create a new node server. Open a new terminal within the project directory and run:

1. Initialize a new project: npm i
2. run the development server with npm run dev

Testing in Local

1. Open Postman and import ./cloud-cdnd-c2-final.postman_collection.json file to Postman. See the image below.

2. Open cloud-cdnd-c2 collection, go to variable and change the variable host to http:\\localhost:8002

3. Run http://localhost:8082/filteredimage?image_url={{URL} request to test the endpoint. See the image below

Testing with Beanstalk URL

1. Open Postman and import ./cloud-cdnd-c2-final.postman_collection.json file to Postman. See the image below.

2. Open cloud-cdnd-c2 collection, go to variable and change the variable host to http://image-filter-starter-code-dev.eu-west-3.elasticbeanstalk.com/

3. Run http://localhost:8082/filteredimage?image_url={{URL} request to test the endpoint. See the image below
