About

This project is powered by nx monorepo as an easy boilerplate for nestjs applications More info can be found here: https://nx.dev/

Prerequisites

1. Nodejs version 16 or higher
2. Docker

Start project

1. Run npm install
2. Start infrastructure npm run start:infra. Please do not close the terminal as we would need it for integration tests and service
3. Run integration tests npm test
4. Start service npm start
5. Open http://localhost:3333/graphql to see graphql playground

Troubleshooting

1. Cannot start infra -> please check that docker is running
2. Port is unavailable -> project uses 5433 for docker mapping, be sure it is available

Future thoughts

1. For product search it is better to use elastic to do fulltext search.
2. Order service can be extracted to the separate application with its own DB if we are going to move into the microservices world
