$ git clone https://github.com/romanV7/microservices$ cd microservices && npm i$ docker-compose up -d - Check port 3000
Used my npm package 'npm-dependency-for-microservises' for better security.
I have done this project in order to understand what microservices are, how I can make them and how actually orchestrate them together. That is basically what I'm going for here
You see that I have a directory called: books, search, videos, web. Each of there are full-fledged applications, each one of these directories is actually an entire system in of itself. It has its own server, source, its own dependancies - all that. So that my project is a project of projects and that's where the micro part of all this comes in.
I like to call these directories: books, videos and this type of very natural domain-driven terms which are very closely tied to different entities within your system, I'd like to think of them as a domain services that handle every specific data structure or a data type in your system. And microservice search which is like an aggregate or a consumer that just talks througth other services to provide some type of value.
Instead of putting all of that code into one single project, I have sliced these natural pieces up to very small projects and then make them work together as a distributed system
I have made it just for learning. If this is a small project, all of this code should be in a monolithic application there is no reason to slice up something this small into microservices.
It is not really proportional to this problem.
