About the generated microservice scaffolding

Supports OpenAPI Specification V3

Path for your API definition:

/apiDefinition/openapi.json

Auto generates stubs (controller & service classes) based on Open API Specification V3.

Step 1 - Define your own API:

/apiDefinition/openapi.json

Step 2 - Verify file content using Swagger UI (Swagger Editor):

Step 3 - Generate relevant controller and service classes:

npm run stub

Step 4 - Controller and service classes will be generated in:

/src/controllers
/src/services

Provides sample GET, PUT, POST request based on OpenAPI Specification V3

As a ready example, try the '/sample' endpoint already defined in:

/apiDefinition/openapi.json

Step 1 - Generate relevant controller and service classes for '/sample' endpoint:

npm run stub

Step 2 - Run the server locally:

npm run local-start

Step 3 - Verify GET '/sample' API:

http://localhost:3000/sample

Provides out-of-the box health endpoint

Step 1 - Run the server locally:

npm run start

Step 2 - Verify application health:

http://localhost:3000/health

Ready to deploy to Cloud Foundry

To deploy the app to Cloud Foundry:

cf push -f manifest.yml
