• Efficient communication between microservices through RPC calls.
• Timeout functionality for the API Request.

• Node.js: Backend Environment
• Express.js: Backend Framework
• RabbitMQ: Message Broker (for RPC functionality)

• Node.js
• RabbitMQ
  • Either download locally
  • Or use cloud provider

1. Clone the Repository:

   git clone https://github.com/Deval1807/Nodejs-rpc
   cd Nodejs-rpc

2. Install dependencies:

   npm install

3. Configure environment variables:

   • Create a .env file in the root directory
   • Add your RabbitMQ URL

   RABBITMQ_URL = <your_RabbitMQ_URL>

   • If you are using it locally, the configuration will be:

   RABBITMQ_URL = 'amqp://localhost'

4. Make sure to start your RabbitMQ service before starting the server, if you are using RabbitMQ locally.

   • If you have already installed RabbitMQ, directly search for RabbitMQ Service - Start and you will be able to start it.

5. RabbitMQ Management Console

   • Once the service is start, go to http://localhost:15672 for the accessing the management console
   • If you are unable to access it, you will need to add a plugin for it
   • Open RabbitMQ command prompt and run the following command

     rabbitmq-plugins enable rabbitmq_management

   • Restart your service and it should be working 😄

6. Start the server

   • Start products.js

     node src/products.js

   • Start customer.js in a new terminal

     node src/customer.js

• Once the Server is running,

• Visit the following link for Customer server

  • / : http://localhost:9000
  • /wishlist : http://localhost:9000/wishist

• Visit the following link for Products server

  • / : http://localhost:8000
  • /customer : http://localhost:8000/customer
