Introduction

...

Service-Oriented Architecture built using JavaScript (SOAJS). Its services can be combined to provide the functionality of a large software application. Each Service is a collection of APIs easily managed by SOAJS framework and productized with multitenant capability. Its embedded self-awareness makes it easier to scale both horizontally and vertically letting all services running on the cloud to communicate effortless and form a massive reliable and scalable infrastructure to empower the communication between the product frontend and backend. SOAJS comes with tons of features, implementing SOAJS framework means getting a boost start of at least 50%.

In this page we will introduce a simple hello world example that demonstrates how easy it is to build a micro-service on top of SOAJS. 

...

The Hello World service is available under the soajs.examples repository and soajs framework configuration is available under soajs.utilities. In the previous page we showed you how to import the configuration for all Get Started Examples. repository, you need to go over the readme under soajs.examples to setup the environment

Now we will show you how to start the service and interact with it.

# go to examples/hello_world and start the service
$ cd /opt/soajs/node_modules/soajs.examples/hello_world/

# start the soajs example environment 
sudo soajs services start --env=example

# export necessary environment variables to create local awareness
export SOAJS_ENV=EXAMPLE
export SOAJS_SRVPORT=4020
export SOAJS_DEPLOY_MANUAL=1
export SOAJS_REGISTRY_API=127.0.0.1:21000


# start service
$ node .

Test the Service 

...

Once the service starts, run the following curl command that calls the API of your "hello world" service and check out the response returned.

$ CURL -X GET "http://127.0.0.1:4020/hello?firstName=John&lastName=Doe"
