Overview

This repository contains the services tier of the Fortis architecture, below highlighted in red in the architecture diagram for the entire system.

This repository implements a NodeJS GraphQL server that sits in between the Fortis data-store (Cassandra) and the Fortis frontend (React).

Development setup

As per the diagram above, there are two pieces necessary to run this repository locally: a Cassandra database and the GraphQL server. You can spin up both of these pieces using Docker via the following command:

git clone https://github.com/CatalystCode/project-fortis-services
cd project-fortis-services
docker-compose up

The container of the GraphQL server will wait for the Cassandra database to come live, then set up the database schema, then insert seed data (if a link to a CQL file is provided via the FORTIS_CASSANDRA_SEED_DATA_URL environment variable) and then start the GraphQL server on port 8080.

After the server started, head over to the following URLs to play with the service:

• http://localhost:8080/api/edges/graphiql
• http://localhost:8080/api/messages/graphiql
• http://localhost:8080/api/settings/graphiql
• http://localhost:8080/api/tiles/graphiql
