Datadromm - Microservice

Purpose

Within the scope of videodromm we want to achieve a way to easily add, edit and retrieve shader files from anywhere.

Goals

- REST api microservice
- Persistence management (mongodb through mongoose)
- Consistent and well tested microservice
- Improve our knowledge in NodeJS
- TDD
- Distributed remote working
- Get an MVP ASAP

Pdf

A REST api that will handle requests from clients:

- Add a new shader to database
- Update a current shader
- Remove a shader
- Error handling for all 3 points above
- Unit testing / Functional testing / End-2-End
- Easily deployment (dockerfile)
- Easily scaling (multiple microservice instances)

Arch

For the REST api:

- We'll use express

For the MongoDB persistence:

- We'll choose mongoose, despite of some paybacks at long term, for the first iteration will be fastest

For testing:

- We'll use mocha / chai / supertest
- Test coverage with istambul

For deployment:

- Docker

For tasks:

- Gulp
