Johnson

Johnson is a discovery and proxy service designed for managing server groups, built as part of a personal learning project.

This project is NOT intended for production use (at least currently). It was developed primarily as a learning exercise to explore concepts related to server orchestration, discovery, and routing. If you intend to use this in a production environment, please make sure to do proper testing and validation before.

Features

• Service Discovery: Register and track the availability of servers within a group.
• Proxying: Route external API requests to the appropriate services.
• Fault Tolerance: Provides basic fault tolerance mechanisms for service availability.

Technologies

• ASP.NET Core Web API - Main framework used in the project.
• Entity Framework Core - Used for database access.
• RabbitMQ - Used messaging and communication between modules.
• Redis - Used caching server details for faster data retrievals.
• SQLite - Acts as a backup and permanent storage for cached data, ensuring persistence in case of system failure.
• RabbitMQ - For environment setup (RabbitMQ and Redis).

Installation and Setup

This project requires Docker to set up RabbitMQ and Redis for local development. Here are the steps to get it running:

Prerequisites

• Docker
• .NET 8 or higher
• SQLite3

Installation

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone https://github.com/caganseyrek/Johnson.git

2. Navigate to the project directory:

   cd path/to/Johnson

3. Run docker container for RabbitMQ and Redis using Docker Compose:

   docker-compose up

4. Build the ASP.NET Core Web API project:

   dotnet build

5. Apply migrations to the SQLite database:

   dotnet ef database update

6. Apply migrations to the SQLite database:

   dotnet run

Stopping the Services

To stop the Docker services (RabbitMQ and Redis), run:

docker-compose down
