An experiment in microservice architecture
Prerequisites:
- Kubectl
- Minikube (running/started)
# set this at the beginning of your terminal session to reference the local docker images
eval $(minikube docker-env)
git clone github.com/jmoussa/crypto-dashboard
cd crypto-dashboard
cp $(pwd)/config/config.json.template $(pwd)/config/config.json # fill in the correct values
export CONFIG_LOCATION=$(pwd)/config
go get .
make build
make deploy # will open minikube dashboard in browser to visualize the deployment
# in a separate terminal window
minikube tunnel # expose API port to your local machine
# Additional Commands
# clean up go cache, docker, and kubernetes deployment
make clean
# open minikube dashboard for monitoring
minikube dashboard
# test endpoint in browser
localhost:3000/coindesk (test coindesk REST API + CoinDesk Article Scraping gRPC endpoint)
localhost:3000/twitter (test coindesk REST API + Twitter Scraping gRPC endpoint)- Single Dashboard view
- Monitoring top 20 crypto prices (scrape from etherscan.io)
- Twitter NFT News Feed (API)
- CoinDesk, TodayOnChain, CCN, and CoinTelegraph
- Crypto/Finance News Feed (API or scrape)
- Companies that Accept Crypto (scrape from somewhere?)
- REST at the high level
- gRPC for microservice communications
Top level REST API which connects to gRPC Servers that will perform the content gathering jobs and pipe the input back.
Using Kubernetes and Helm for environment management and monitoring, and minikube for local development.
