This project creates a blogging API service using Nest framework. In this project will be using Kong is used as the API gateway. Each service will have its own Mongo database and Redis database .

This project breaks down the monolithic go blog backend project provided at goserve repository. It uses the goserve REST API framework to build the auth_service, and blog_service.

• NestJS microservice architecture
• kong API gateway (Future Scope)
• nats for microservices communication (Future Scope)
• custom kong go plugin for apikey validation (Future Scope)
• docker and docker-compose
• mongo
• redis (Future Scope)
• authorization => role based authorization to be added
• Added refresh tokens for better user experience

1. auth_service: auth APIs code
2. blog_service: blog APIs code

Authentication

• users collection exists in the auth_service database
• auth_service has logic to validate the JWT access token
• auth_service validates the token using a middleware
• blog_service asks auth_service to validate the token via Axios messaging

Authorization

• users and roles collection exists in the auth_service database (Future Scope)
• auth_service checks the roles based on the asked role code (Future Scope)
• auth_service validates the role using a middleware (Future Scope)
• blog_service asks auth_service to validate a user's role via Axios messaging (Future Scope)
