NodeJs simple clustered Load Balancer

Start consul (service registry)

consul agent -dev

Start load balancer as cluster

npm start

Start your services

forever start --killSignal=SIGINT example/app.js api
forever start --killSignal=SIGINT example/app.js api
forever start --killSignal=SIGINT example/app.js webapp

Call services through load balancer

curl localhost:8080/api
curl localhost:8080/web

TODO

• Setup tests on basic interface of balancer itself
• Support different service registry
• Better handling of sigterm/kill (pause on fork, notify about it, ...)
• Cli (?):
  • Parametrize clusterization
  • SR configuration
