Get running

Either run the docker image via plain docker:

bash> sudo docker build -t demo-microkernel-ecommerce .
bash> sudo docker run -p 8080:8080 demo-microkernel-ecommerce  

or with the given docker-compose:

bash> sudo docker-compose up

Either will start a web-server running on http://localhost:8080 with the following endpoints:

• CreateOrder: POST /api/orders
• AllOrders: GET /api/orders
• AllPayments: GET /api/payments
• AllShipments: GET /api/shipments

We start with en empty database. To create an order POST below request to http://localhost:8080/api/orders:

{
    "userId": "1234-5678-8765-4321",
    "amount": 42.0,
    "status": "New"
}

This will initiate payment as well as shipment.

It's success can be checked by requesting the other endpoints via GET.
