Shop
Lightweight dependency injection
Intro
The aim of this tutorial is to outline a basic approach for dependency injection that can be used to write easily testable, side-effect rich code.
The codebase we will be working on is written in Elixir, but techniques can be applied to other BEAM languages as well.
The project requires Elixir >= 1.6.0.
After cloning the repository, we can checkout the starter branch and run:
mix do deps.get, compile
A basic integration test is included, which can be run with mix test.
Example application
The application represents the a shop api, divided into two main components: a simple store (which is responsible to create and manipulate products) and a front api which provides a few JSON endpoints.
Features
- Create new products via the API
- Fetch and filter products
- Fetch a report about products' general properties
