Widget Microservice

This repository contains the widget microservice for WRI API

Build Status Test Coverage

Dependencies

The Widget microservice is built using Node.js, and can be executed either natively or using Docker, each of which has its own set of requirements.

Native execution requires:

Execution using Docker requires:

Dependencies on other Microservices:

Getting started

Start by cloning the repository from github to your execution environment

git clone https://github.com/resource-watch/widget.git && cd widget

After that, follow one of the instructions below:

Using native execution

1 - Set up your environment variables. See dev.env.sample for a list of variables you should set, which are described in detail in this section of the documentation. Native execution will NOT load the dev.env file content, so you need to use another way to define those values

2 - Install node dependencies using YARN:

yarn install

3 - Start the application server:

yarn start

The endpoints provided by this microservice should now be available through the service's URL.

Using Docker

1 - Create and complete your dev.env file with your configuration. The meaning of the variables is available in this section. You can find an example dev.env.sample file in the project root.

2 - Execute the following command to run the microservice:

./widgetAdapter.sh develop

The endpoints provided by this microservice should now be available through the service's URL.

Testing

There are two ways to run the included tests:

Using native execution

Follow the instruction above for setting up the runtime environment for native execution, then run:

yarn test

Using Docker

Follow the instruction above for setting up the runtime environment for Docker execution, then run:

./widget.sh test

Configuration

It is necessary to define these environment variables:

  • GATEWAY_URL => Gateway URL
  • NODE_ENV => Environment (prod, staging, dev)
