This module provides quick steps to create MostlyJS microservices with Poplarjs.
npm install mostly-poplarjsConvert your Poplarjs APIs into microservices is easy enough.
Your existing Poplarjs code
// dummy_api.js
const ApiBuilder = poplar.ApiBuilder;
var DummyApi = new ApiBuilder('dummies');
DummyApi.define('info', {...});
....
module.exports = DummyApi;Wrapping it as standalone server
const nats = require('nats');
const mostly = require('mostly-node');
const poplar = require('mostly-poplarjs');
const dummyApi = require('./dummy_api');
const trans = new mostly(nats.connect());
trans.ready(() => {
var app = poplar.create(trans)
.use(dummyApi)
.handler();
});That's all, the service will register itself with NATS and can be called remotely.
To expose the service as RESTful api, you need only setup a simple express gateway server using mostly-poplarjs-rest
