Skeleton of a Microservice built with the Flask
This is the code used in this series of articles:
This is a basic approach of building a Microservice on top of Flask, with some useful packages like:
We are going to build a microservice to index rooms information coming from another service (crawler). This service will be responsible for indexing the information into Elasticsearch.
The indexing will be a process of:
Endpoints:
Method | URI | Description | Status |
---|---|---|---|
POST | /room | it will receive the room payload, and it will proceed to index it | Development |
PATCH | /room/{id} | this PATCH method will allow us to make changes on the indexed item | Not started |
DELETE | /room/{id} | this method will remove the room from the index | Not started |
GET | /room/{id} | this method will return the room data for a given room id | Not started |
GET | /health-check | This endpoint retuns the state of the service | Not started |
You need to have Docker installed in your machine, after that, just run this command docker-compose build && docker-compose up -d
