Nx Microservices with Node and Docker

We’ll be creating a simple product that will have two applications (a view application, and an API application). And we will have a Docker container running on http://localhost:8080 that will have two services communicating with each other within the container.

Services

'API' Application

api

• NestJs
• Express
• Handlebars

'VIEW' Application

html

• Handlebars

Production build

1. Build apps:

   # Build app 'api'
   nx build api
   
   # Build app 'html'
   nx build html
   
   # or:
   npm run build:all

2. Run containerization:

   # Create Docker image: 'api'
   npm run deploy:api
   
   # Create Docker image: 'html'
   npm run deploy:html
   
   # Launch Docker container
   npm run deploy

3. Test:

   # Run in browser
   http://localhost:8080/
