How to run the project

Steps

1. Deploy Kafka

kubectl apply -f deployment/kafka

2. Deploy Person Microservices

kubectl apply -f deployment/person-service

3. Deploy Location Microservices

kubectl apply -f deployment/location-service

4. Deploy Connection Microservices

kubectl apply -f deployment/connection-service

5. DeploY Api Gateway

to deploy API gateway, we need to deploy first an open-source ingress-controller ingress nginx that will route the traffic to destinated microservices following our ingress rules

• Ingress Controller

kubectl apply -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kubernetes/ingress-nginx/controller-v1.1.1/deploy/static/provider/baremetal/deploy.yaml

• Patching Ingress Controller Nodeort

kubectl -n ingress-nginx patch svc ingress-nginx-controller --patch '{"spec": {"ports": [{"name": "http","port": 80, "nodePort": 30000}]}}'

• Ingress Rules

kubectl apply -f deployment/api-gateway

6. Deploy frontend

kubectl apply -f deployment/frontend/

7. Seed databases

Before testing APIs it is mandatory to seed person and location databases in order to create DB tables and some dummy data

• Seed location db

sh scripts/run_db_cmd_location.sh $(kubectl get pod -l service=location-postgres --no-headers -o jsonpath='{.items[0].metadata.name}{"\n"}')

• Seed person db

sh scripts/run_db_cmd_person.sh $(kubectl get pod -l service=person-postgres --no-headers -o jsonpath='{.items[0].metadata.name}{"\n"}')

Once the project is up and running, you should be able to see 11 deployment of the system and 11 services exposing them as well as an ingress object with behind the scene ingress-controller as API-gateway kubectl get pods and kubectl get services and kubectl describe ingress udaconnect-ingress
