As a technology consultation provider, Cenacle works with customers from various domains including Automotive, Healthcare, Retail, Energy and BFSI, on solutions ranging from IIOT, Blockchain, EHR, SmartContracts, DevOps, Predictive Analytics etc.<\/p>\n
To be able to successfully deliver such varied solutions in a timely manner, we need architectures and frameworks that allow reuse and rapid-development. For majority of our solutions, we use micro-services architecture with backend data controlled through RESTful resources, sockets and flexible data-base plug-ins.<\/p>\n
FeathersJS is a realtime, microservices web framework for NodeJs that suits all our above requirements. The micro-services architecture allows reuse, and scalability. RESTful and socket access allow easy integration for cross-language clients to access our functionality.<\/p>\n
FeathersJS integrates nicely with various front-end frameworks, such as Vue, and can be used directly from browser code with @feathersjs\/client.<\/p>\n
FeathersJS has adapters for 15+ data sources out of the box, including MongoDB, Postgres, RethinkDB etc., which means we can support various customer backends seamlessly.<\/p>\n
Optional plugins that support Passport authentication means, flexible authorization with JWT, OAuth1, OAuth2 etc.<\/p>\n
Service hooks is a very powerful feature of FeathersJS that allows you plugin any custom code before and after various route handler methods, which is useful to inject loggers, rate limit controllers etc.<\/p>\n
Creating a RESTful resource in FeathersJS is as simple as declaring a Javascript class module with below structure:<\/p>\n
const myService = {\n async find(params) {\n return [];\n },\n async get(id, params) {},\n async create(data, params) {},\n async update(id, data, params) {},\n async patch(id, data, params) {},\n async remove(id, params) {},\n setup(app, path) {}\n}\n\napp.use('\/my-service', myService);\n<\/pre>\nSuch defined FeathersJS service can be accessed through URL with one of the POST, GET etc. methods, or internally accessed through services, as:<\/p>\n
const myService = app.service('my-service');\n\n myService.find().then(items => console.log('.find()', items));\n myService.get(1).then(item => console.log('.get(1)', item));\n<\/pre>\nThis allows you to create interleaved services that access each other internally to provide a complex functionality at the application level.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
