User API
Backend data service used to fetch and return user data from the Cassandra user-api db
This application should be run using docker. The following environment variables are required:
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| DB_HOST | IP address or FQDN of the Cassandra database |
| DB_KEYSPACE | Keyspace name in the target database that stores user information |
e.g sudo docker run -e DB_HOST='127.0.0.1' -e DB_KEYSPACE='userapi' -d user-api:latest
Cassandra DB must have a keyspace, and a table called "users" with the following attributes. This will be scripted later but is manual for now. The following commands will set up a cassandra DB for development purposes.
CREATE KEYSPACE userapi WITH replication = {'class':'SimpleStrategy', 'replication_factor' : 1}; USE userapi; CREATE TABLE users(id int PRIMARY KEY,name text,high_score int);
