Obtain full address from GPS coordinates, Micro-Service.

Part of NotifyDriver project's back-end

This is a simple microservice developed with Seneca microservices toolkit. Its aim is to get the user full address from his GPS coordinates. It can be used under service-to-service or user-to-service patterns. To communicate with it, I used HTTP as transport (pipeline).

How to use

git clone https://github.com/fkanout/GPS-to-address-MicroService

cd GPS-to-address-MicroService

npm install

for developement

node bin/app.js

for production:

use the IIFE (Immediately Invoked Function Expression)directly from lib/index.js

By default the service is available on:

http://localhost:8888/geolocation

Example

curl -d '{"task": "geolocation", "gps": {"lat":48.8529806, "log":2.3273854 }}' http://localhost:8888/geolocation

• HTTP method: POST
