Microservice Architecture with KrakenD and Mock REST API

This repository contains the implementation of a microservice architecture using KrakenD as the API gateway and a mock REST API as the backend service. The architecture is containerized using Docker, allowing for easy deployment and management.

Prerequisites

  • Docker: Ensure that Docker is installed on your local machine before proceeding with the setup.

Getting Started

Follow the steps below to set up and run the microservice architecture:

  1. Clone the repository:

    git clone [https://github.com/xen-HendryZheng/MicroService-In-10Minutes-With-Krakend-Restapi-placeholder](https://github.com/xen-HendryZheng/MicroService-In-10Minutes-With-Krakend-Restapi-placeholder)

  2. Navigate to the project directory:

    cd MicroService-In-10Minutes-With-Krakend-Restapi-placeholder

  3. Build the Docker image:

    docker build -t my-krakend-service .

  4. Start the Docker container:

    docker run -p 8080:8080 my-krakend-service

    The KrakenD API gateway and the mock REST API backend will now be up and running.

  5. Test the microservice:

    Open your web browser or use tools like cURL or Postman to send a GET request to http://localhost:8080/items. You should receive a response containing the mock user data from the https://api.restapi-placeholder.com API. More information for the mock backend service can be found at https://restapi-placeholder.com/

Configuration

The configuration for the KrakenD API gateway is defined in the krakend.json file. The current configuration uses https://api.restapi-placeholder.com as the mock REST API backend for the /users endpoint. Modify the krakend.json file to customize the endpoints and backend services as per your requirements.
