The Template service is an abstract service that all of Lisk Service services are inherited from. It allows all services to share a similar interface and design pattern. Its purpose is to reduce code duplication and increase consistency between each service, hence simplifying code maintenance and testing.
Note that this installation instruction is required only for development activities. For a regular Lisk Service user, the official documentation is sufficient to run an instance. The global readme file present in the root directory describes how to run all the microservices simultaneously.
Please refer to the README in the project root directory.
Clone the Lisk Service Repository:
git clone https://github.com/LiskHQ/lisk-service.git # clone repository
cd lisk-service/services/template # move into template microservice directory
npm ci # install required Node.js dependencies
To configure the different microservices, there are several environment variables the user can define to customize the configurations. The template service does not use any of them by default.
cd lisk-service/services/template # move into the root directory of the template microservice
npm start # start the microservice
Use the framework/bin/moleculer_client.js
and framework/bin/moleculer_subscribe.js
clients to test specific service endpoints.
Once the process is verified as running correctly, press CTRL+C
and start the process with PM2
. This will fork the process into the background and automatically recover the process if it fails.
Press Ctrl+C
in the terminal to stop the process.
