Cinema is an example project which demonstrates the use of microservices for a fictional movie theater. The Cinema backend is powered by 4 microservices, all of witch happen to be written in Go, using MongoDB for manage the database and Docker to isolate and deploy the ecosystem.
- Movie Service: Provides information like movie ratings, title, etc.
- Show Times Service: Provides show times information.
- Booking Service: Provides booking information.
- Users Service: Provides movie suggestions for users by communicating with other services.
The Cinema use case is based on the project written in Python by Umer Mansoor.
The proyect structure is based in the knowledge learned in the book: Web Development with Go by Shiju Varghese, ISBN 978-1-4842-1053-6

- Docker 1.12
- Docker Compose 1.8
We must add virtual domains in order to use each api entry point. By default we are using: movies.local, bookings.local, users.local and showtimes.local
Virtual domains has been defined in docker-compose.yml file and configured in /etc/hosts file. Add the following line in your /etc/hosts file:
127.0.0.1 movies.local bookings.local users.local showtimes.local
docker-compose up -d
docker-compose stop
If you need change some source code you can deploy it typing:
docker-compose build
You can start using an empty database for all microservices, but if you want you can restore a preconfigured data following this steps:
Access to mongodb container typing:
docker exec -it cinema-db /bin/bash
Restore data typing:
/backup/restore.sh
Leave the container:
exit
