Microrealestate

Microrealestate is a set of microservices which work together to offer an open source application for property management.

This application draws its fundamentals from a monolithic application: Loca

The first objective is to combine the monolith application and the microservices to provide new functionalities.

µService	Description	Status
Alert	Sends alert messages based on business rules (contract deadlines, unpaid rents...)	Not available
API Gateway	To define	Dev in progress
cAdvisor	Container Advisor	Available
Elastic Stack	Elasticsearch Logstash Kibana handles logs and monitors containers and hosts	Available
EMailer	Generates and sends emails	Available
Loca	The web application	Available
Messages	message broker	Dev in progress
PDFGenerator	Generates PDF documents (letters, contracts, invoices...)	Available
Text	Generates and texts (cash balance, alerts...)	Not available

In a second stage, the monolith application will be broken in microservices.

Getting started

Prerequisite

Docker and docker-compose installed

The mre bash script is uses for building, running the application. It doesn't work on windows.

Clone the GitHub repository

$ git clone --recursive https://github.com/microrealestate/microrealestate.git

kibana                http://localhost:9000
cadvisor              http://localhost:9100
rabbitmq Management   http://localhost:8100

Start the application in development mode

$ ./mre dev

Debugging the application

You would need to have the latest version of VS Code installed.

Then bring up the Debug view, click on the Debug icon in the Activity Bar on the side of VS Code. You can also use the keyboard shortcut Ctrl+Shift+D.

In a terminal launch the application in development mode:

Next, go to the debug bar:

Then select one of these values to attach the VS Code debugger to the application:
