The api_gw from majdrezik

See the API documentation on Swagger

Description

Node.js api gateway app with internal loadbalancing for isntances in each service and basic authorization (user based & token based).

pull the project and get the api gw started by running:

npm run dev

Now navigate to one of the workspaces (behaving as our Frontend) and start them as well (at least one)

node server.js

right after running the service, the routes/registery.json will be updated with your service.

In order to enable the service, run: (where bWFqZDpwYXNzd29yZA== is base64 encoding of the majd:password as username:password pair)

curl -X POST -H 'Content-Type:application/json' -H 'authorization:bWFqZDpwYXNzd29yZA==' -d '{"url":"http://localhost:3003/","enabled":true}' http://localhost:3000/enable-instance/staging

enabling / disabling an instance in a service is done for times such as maintanance, server down, nightly shutdown etc, in those cases, the api gw should not use the instances

In order to disable the service, run: (where bWFqZDpwYXNzd29yZA== is base64 encoding of the majd:password as username:password pair)

curl -X POST -H 'Content-Type:application/json' -H 'authorization:bWFqZDpwYXNzd29yZA==' -d '{"url":"http://localhost:3003/","enabled":false}' http://localhost:3000/enable-instance/staging

Notice the change in routes/registery.json file.

Now if you have many instances under the service. You can enjoy the loadbalancing!

Lets say you have 2 instances enabled under a service in your routes/registery.json file.

    {
      "apiName": "staging",
      "protocol": "http",
      "host": "localhost",
      "port": 3003,
      "url": "http://localhost:3003/",
      "enabled": true  <-----------
    },
    {
      "apiName": "staging",
      "protocol": "http",
      "host": "localhost",
      "port": 3004,
      "url": "http://localhost:3004/",
      "enabled": true  <-----------
    }

by running the following more than once:

  curl -X POST -H 'Content-Type:application/json' -H 'authorization:bWFqZDpwYXNzd29yZA==' http://localhost:3000/staging/fakeapi
  curl -X POST -H 'Content-Type:application/json' -H 'authorization:bWFqZDpwYXNzd29yZA==' http://localhost:3000/staging/fakeapi

You will have these results (in the GW terminal, not the service) - showing the effect of the loadbalancing:

username: majd | password: password
Authorized!
url: http://localhost:3003/  <----------- Notice the port

username: majd | password: password
Authorized!
url: http://localhost:3004/  <----------- Notice the port

meaning we're now scaled horizontally and have a loadbalancer - we can have the instances on different hosts as well

If you disable one instance from the instances above and re run the `curl` command, you'll only have 1 instance serving.

    {
      "apiName": "staging",
      "protocol": "http",
      "host": "localhost",
      "port": 3003,
      "url": "http://localhost:3003/",
      "enabled": true  <-----------
    },
    {
      "apiName": "staging",
      "protocol": "http",
      "host": "localhost",
      "port": 3004,
      "url": "http://localhost:3004/",
      "enabled": false  <-----------
    }

  ----------------------------------------------

  >   curl -X POST -H 'Content-Type:application/json' -H 'authorization:bWFqZDpwYXNzd29yZA==' http://localhost:3000/staging/fakeapi
  >  curl -X POST -H 'Content-Type:application/json' -H 'authorization:bWFqZDpwYXNzd29yZA==' http://localhost:3000/staging/fakeapi

  ----------------------------------------------

  RESPONSE:

  username: majd | password: password
  Authorized!
  url: http://localhost:3003/

  username: majd | password: password
  Authorized!
  url: http://localhost:3003/
