Contract

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

Download

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

git clone [e-mail]:entinco/eic-services-integration.git

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

Run

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

Example of microservice configuration

- descriptor: "pip-services-container:container-info:default:default:1.0"
  name: "service-processstates"
  description: "Process States microservice"

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

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

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

- descriptor: "service-processstates: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

Install

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-processstates-node": "^1.0.*",
        ...
    }
}

Use

Inside your code get the reference to the client SDK

 import { Process StatesHttpClientV1 } from 'client-processstates-node';

Define client configuration parameters.

// Client configuration
let httpConfig = ConfigParams.fromTuples(
    "connection.protocol", "http",
    "connection.host", "localhost",
    "connection.port", 3000
);
client.configure(httpConfig);

Instantiate the client and open connection to the microservice

// Create the client instance
client = new Process StatesHttpClientV1();

// Connect to the microservice
await client.open(null);

// Work with the microservice
...
