Moleculer codebase containing real world examples (CRUD, auth, advanced patterns, etc) that adheres to the RealWorld spec and API.

This repo is functionality complete — PRs and issues welcome!

React + Redux front-end UI is included. For more information on how to this works with other frontends/backends, head over to the RealWorld repo.

• Clone this repo
• npm install to install all required dependencies
• npm run dev to start the local server

Basically the services stores data in an NeDB persistent file storage in the ./data folder. If you have to use MongoDB, set the MONGO_URI environment variable.

MONGO_URI=mongodb://localhost/conduit

You can run multiple instances of services. In this case you need to use a transporter i.e.: NATS. NATS is a lightweight & fast message broker. Download it and start with gnatsd command. After it started, set the TRANSPORTER env variable and start services.

TRANSPORTER=nats://localhost:4222

1. Checkout the repo git clone https://github.com/ice-services/moleculer-realworld-example-app.git

2. cd moleculer-realworld-example-app

3. Start with docker-compose: docker-compose up -d

   It starts all services in separated containers, a NATS server for communication, a MongoDB server for database and a Traefik reverse proxy

4. Open the http://docker-ip:3000

5. Scale up services

   docker-compose scale api=3 articles=2 users=2 comments=2 follows=2 favorites=2
