carts-mongo

This module implements MongoDB backend for the Shopping Cart Service.

Building the Service

See main documentation page for instructions.

Running the Service

This implementation is slightly more complex to run, because it requires a MongoDB instance to use as a data store.

First you will need to create a Docker network that will be used by both MongoDB and the service containers, if you haven't done that already:

$ docker network create sockshop 

Then you can run MongoDB container, but you need to assign it to the sockshop network created above, and give it a name that the service container expects (carts-db in this case):

$ docker run --rm --name carts-db --network sockshop mongo:4.2.2

Note: The --rm flag above ensures that the container is removed automatically after it is stopped. This allows you to re-run the command above without having to remove the carts-db container manually between runs.

Finally, you can start the service container in the same network:

$ docker run --network sockshop -p 7001:7001 ghcr.io/helidon-sockshop/carts-mongo

Once the container is up and running, you should be able to access service API by navigating to http://localhost:7001/carts/.

As a basic test, you should be able to perform an HTTP GET against /carts/{customerId} endpoint:

$ curl http://localhost:7001/carts/123

which should return JSON response

{
  "customerId": "123"
}
