This is a sample that shows how to implement a micro-serivce on C++ using the C++ REST SDK
-
Install git, CMake, boost, openssl on your system, if you are using macOS this can be acomplished easily with the following command:
$ brew install cmake git openssl boost zlib
-
Clone the repository.
-
Go to the directory micro-service/libs and execute the script:
./build_dependencies.sh
that'll clone the C++ REST SDK repository and will build the static version of the library, if you want to build the dynamic link version of the library just on the build_dependencies.sh script remove the flag:-DBUILD_SHARED_LIBS=OFF
. -
Go to the directory micro-service and type the following commands:
$ mkdir build $ cd build $ cmake -G "Unix Makefiles" -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug ..
-
Finally type the command:
$ make -j 8
-
On
./build
directory type and you should see the following output:$ ./micro-service $ Modern C++ Microservice now listening for requests at: http://<your computer's IP>:6502/v1/ivmero/api
-
To perform a benchmark on the Modern C++ Microservice I had included two lua scritps which can be executed using WRK2 HTTP Benckmark Tool, using the following command:
$ ./wrk -c100 -t8 -d60s -s benchmark_microsvc.lua http://192.168.100.6:6502 --latency --rate 2000
and see results similar to these:

IMPORTANT The results above will depend on the system where the test is executed and please to avoid execisve I/O during the test comment the following line on any of the scripts:
response = function(status, headers, body)
-- comment the following line to avoid server's excesive I/O to console on heavy load
-- io.write("response: \n" .. body .. "\n---------------------------------------------\n")
end
You can copy from the results above the histogram's section following the sample format found here, save it into a file and see a nice graph unsing HdrHistogram Ploter.
