Notification Service

Overview

This README provides instructions on how to set up and run the NotificationService using Docker. The NotificationService acts as a central hub for handling and dispatching notifications across different topics.

Prerequisites

Before you begin, make sure you have Docker installed on your machine. If you do not have Docker installed, you can download and install it from Docker's official website.

Getting Started

git clone [repository-url]
cd APIGateway

Replace [repository-url] with the actual URL of the repository.

Step 2: Create an .env File

Before running the Docker container, create an .env file in the root directory of the project with the following configuration:

PORT=2008
JWT_SECRET=your_jwt_secret
MONGODB_URI=your_mongodb_connection_string
KAFKA_BROKERS=host.docker.internal:29092
KAFKA_CLIENT_ID="notificationServer-1"
KAFKAJS_NO_PARTITIONER_WARNING=1
DEFAULT_TOPICS="work-order-events"
WORKORDER_TOPIC="work-order-events"
WORKORDER_TOPIC_GROUPID="work-order-service-1"
COMMBOARD_TOPIC="communication-board-events"
COMMBOARD_TOPIC_GROUPID="communication-board-service-1"
ROOMBOOK_TOPIC="roomBookingTopic"
ROOMBOOK_TOPIC_GROUPID="room-book-ID"
MARKET_PLACE_TOPIC="marketPlaceTopic"
MARKET_PLACE_TOPIC_GROUPID="marketPlaceTopic-1"

Replace your_jwt_secret with your JWT secret key, and customize each service URL and port according to your network setup.

Step 3: Make the Script Executable

Before running the script, ensure it is executable. Run the following command in your terminal:

chmod +x ./rebuild_and_run.sh

Step 4: Run the Script

Once the script is executable, you can run it to rebuild and start the Docker container:

./rebuild_and_run.sh

What Does the Script Do?

The rebuild_and_run.sh script performs the following actions:

1. Builds a new Docker image from the Dockerfile.
2. Stops any previously running containers of the APIGateway.
3. Starts a new container using the newly built image.
