• Piping workflow (using zend-stratigility)
• Features: routing, dependency injection, templating, error handling
• Last release 2.0.3, 28th March 2017

Middleware

A function that gets a request and generates a response

use Psr\Http\Message\ServerRequestInterface as Request;
use Interop\Http\ServerMiddleware\DelegateInterface;

function (Request $request, DelegateInterface $next)
{
    // doing something with $request...
    // for instance calling the delegate middleware $next
    $response = $next->process($request);
    // manipulate the $response
    return $response;
}
    

Installation

You can install Expressive 2.0 using composer:

Microservices

“[...] a collection of loosely coupled services.”

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microservices

• No Standard Definition
• No Specification
• Not specific to any Technology

Docker

Microservice Architectural Style

“[...] a suite of small services, each running in its own process and communicating with lightweight mechanisms, often an HTTP resource API”

martinfowler.com/articles/microservices.html

Docker Compose

Docker Swarm (Mode)

“Current versions of Docker include swarm mode for natively managing a cluster of Docker Engines called a swarm. Use the Docker CLI to create a swarm, deploy application services to a swarm, and manage swarm behavior.”

Init / Manager

$ docker swarm init --advertise-addr 192.168.99.121
    

Swarm initialized: current node (bvz81updecsj6wjz393c09vti) is now a manager.

To add a worker to this swarm, run the following command:

    docker swarm join \
    --token SWMTKN-1-3pu6hszjas19xyp7ghgosyx9k8atbfcr8p2is99znpy26u2lkl-1awxwuwd3z9j1z3puu7rcgdbx \
    172.17.0.2:2377

To add a manager to this swarm, run 'docker swarm join-token manager' and follow the instructions.
    

Routing Mesh

“The routing mesh enables each node in the swarm to accept connections on published ports for any service running in the swarm, even if there’s no task running on the node.”
