Contract

Logical contract of the microservice is presented below. For physical implementation (HTTP/REST, Thrift, Lambda, etc.), please, refer to documentation of the specific protocol.

class QuoteV1 implements IStringIdentifiable {
    public id: string;
    public text: MultiString;
    public author: MultiString;
    public status: string;
    public tags: string[];
    public all_tags: string[];
}

class QuoteStatusV1 {
    public static readonly New = "new";
    public static readonly Writing = "writing";
    public static readonly Translating = "translating";
    public static readonly Verifying = "verifying";
    public static readonly Completed = "completed";
}

interface IQuotesV1 {
    getQuotes(correlationId: string, filter: FilterParams, paging: PagingParams): Promise<DataPage<QuoteV1>>;

    getRandomQuote(correlationId: string, filter: FilterParams): Promise<QuoteV1>;

    getQuoteById(correlationId: string, quote_id: string): Promise<QuoteV1>;

    createQuote(correlationId: string, quote: QuoteV1): Promise<QuoteV1>;

    updateQuote(correlationId: string, quote: QuoteV1): Promise<QuoteV1>;

    deleteQuoteById(correlationId: string, quote_id: string): Promise<QuoteV1>;
}

Download

Right now the only way to get the microservice is to check it out directly from github repository

git clone git@github.com:pip-services-content2/service-quotes-node.git

Pip.Service team is working to implement packaging and make stable releases available for your as zip downloadable archieves.

Run

Add config.yaml file to the root of the microservice folder and set configuration parameters. As the starting point you can use example configuration from config.example.yaml file.

Example of microservice configuration

- descriptor: "pip-services:container-info:default:default:1.0"
  name: "service-quotes"
  description: "Quotes microservice"

- descriptor: "pip-services:logger:console:default:1.0"
  level: "trace"

- descriptor: "service-quotes:persistence:file:default:1.0"
  path: "./data/quotes.json"

- descriptor: "service-quotes:controller:default:default:1.0"

- descriptor: "service-quotes:service:http:default:1.0"
  connection:
    protocol: "http"
    host: "0.0.0.0"
    port: 8080

For more information on the microservice configuration see Configuration Guide.

Start the microservice using the command:

node run

Use

The easiest way to work with the microservice is to use client SDK. The complete list of available client SDKs for different languages is listed in the Quick Links

If you use Node.js then you should add dependency to the client SDK into package.json file of your project

{
    ...
    "dependencies": {
        ....
        "client-quotes-node": "^1.1.*",
        ...
    }
}

Inside your code get the reference to the client SDK

let sdk = new require('client-quotes-node');

Define client configuration parameters that match configuration of the microservice external API

// Client configuration
let config = {
    connection: {
        protocol: 'http',
        host: 'localhost', 
        port: 8080
    }
};

Instantiate the client and open connection to the microservice

// Create the client instance
let client = sdk.QuotesHttpClientV1(config);

// Connect to the microservice
try {
    await client.open(null);
    // Work with the microservice
    ...
} catch(err) {
    console.error('Connection to the microservice failed');
    console.error(err);
}

Now the client is ready to perform operations

// Create a new quote
let quote = {
    text: { en: 'Get in hurry slowly' },
    author: { en: 'Russian proverb' },
    tags: ['time management'],
    status: 'completed'
};

let quote = await client.createQuote(
    null,
    quote
);
// Get the list of quotes on 'time management' topic
let page = await client.getQuotes(
    null,
    {
        tags: 'time management',
        status: 'completed'
    },
    {
        total: true,
        skip: 0,
        take: 10
    }
);
