**Microservices** is a very hot topic in these years, you can see it everywhere, there are a lots of books, blog entries, conference sessions, training courses etc. are talking about it.
## What is Microservices ?
Microservices is not a standard specification, so there is no official definition. Here I listed some well-known explanation from the communities.
[Martin Fowler](https://martinfowler.com/) described it as the following in his article [Microservices](https://martinfowler.com/microservices/):
>In short, the Microservices architectural style is an approach to developing a single application as a suite of small services, each running in its own process and communicating with lightweight mechanisms, often an HTTP resource API. These services are built around business capabilities and independently deployable by fully automated deployment machinery. There is a bare minimum of centralized management of these services, which may be written in different programming languages and use different data storage technologies.
On the [Wikipedia Microservices page](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microservices), Microservices was defined as:
>Microservices is a variant of the service-oriented architecture (SOA) architectural style that structures an application as a collection of loosely coupled services. In a Microservices architecture, services should be fine-grained and the protocols should be lightweight. The benefit of decomposing an application into different smaller services is that it improves modularity and makes the application easier to understand, develop and test. It also parallelizes development by enabling small autonomous teams to develop, deploy and scale their respective services independently.[1] It also allows the architecture of an individual service to emerge through continuous refactoring. Microservices-based architectures enable continuous delivery and deployment.
Chris Richardson, the author of *POJOs in Action* and the creator of the original CloudFoundry.com, and also an advocator of Microservices , summarized Microservices as the following in the home page of [Microservices.io](http://Microservices.io/index.html).
>Microservices - also known as the Microservices architecture - is an architectural style that structures an application as a collection of loosely coupled services, which implement business capabilities. The Microservices architecture enables the continuous delivery/deployment of large, complex applications. It also enables an organization to evolve its technology stack.
There are some common characteristics can be used to describe a Microservices based application.
* A Microservices application should be consisted of a collection of small services. One single service is not Microservices . Every service is fine-grained, and target to perform a small functionality. So Microservices was described as *fine-grained SOA* or *SOA done right* in some articles. So This is the main difference from traditional monolithic applications.
* Every service should have its own independent life cycle. Every service can be developed and deployed independently, if you are using a CI/CD automation service, every service should be delivered through a standard DevOps pipeline, but not affect others.
* Service-to-service communication is based on light-weight protocols, eg. HTTP based REST APIs for synchronous communication, WebSocket for asynchronous messages, MQTT/AMQP protocol for varied messaging from client or devices(eg. IOT applications).
* The organization or team structures should be changed simultaneously when you are embracing Microservices architecture. In the traditional application development, especially your organization follows the waterfall development prototype, your teams are organized by roles, eg architects, database administrators, developers, testers, operators etc. You have to break your traditional organization tree. In the development stage of a Microservices based application, a small team should be responsible for the whole DevOps lifecycle (design, develop, test, deploy, etc.) of one or more services.
Microservices componentizes your application into small services(componentized applications), and make it more maintainable and scalable. In this demo application, I will show you building a Microservices application via Spring Boot.
## Migrating to Microservices architecture
Contrast with Microservices applications, traditional layered enterprise applications were called **monolithic** applications.
In the past years, I have created some samples to demonstrate different technology stack, such as [REST APIs sample with Spring MVC](https://github.com/hantsy/angularjs-springmvc-sample), [REST APIs sample with Spring Boot](https://github.com/hantsy/angularjs-springmvc-sample-boot). In these code samples, the backends are monolithic applications and they are based on the same model prototype, **a blog application**.
* A user can log in with an existed account, or sign up a new account.
* An authenticated user can create a new post.
* An authenticated user can update his/her posts.
* An authenticated user who has **ADMIN** role can delete a post directly.
* All users(who are authenticated or anonymous) can view posts.
* An authenticated user can add comments to an existed post.
* ...No doubt these monolithic backend applications are easy to develop and deploy, but as time goes by, when the application becomes more complex, the backend will be problematic, you maybe face some barriers which block you to the next stages.
* When applying a change, you have to redeploy the whole backend application even it is just a small fix. The application may be stopped to work for some minutes or some hours.
* When scaling your applications and deploying multiple copies of the backend applications behinds a load balance server, the transactional consistence will be a new challenge.
* The database itself will be a huge performance bottleneck when the concurrency of incoming requests are increasing.Microservices architecture addresses these problems, including:
1. Smaller services are easier to maintain in a complex application, when you upgrade one service, you do not need to shut down all services in the production environment.
2. ACID can not satisfy the scenario of those long run workflows which across several services, although it is still a good option in a single service, but for these long run **transactions**, a stateful *Saga* or workflow solution fills this field.
3. A service can has its own database, and only responsible for storing data of this service itself. Traditional complex queries will become a big challenge, in Microservices architecture, it could need to query multi independent database and aggregate the query results. CQRS, Event Store can save these. Perform commands in standalone services, and execute queries in another service which has marshal view of the data and was synced with messaging from events triggered by other services.Follow the **Bounded Context** concept of DDD(Domain Driven Design), we break the backend monolithic application into three small services, including:
* An **auth-service** is serving the operations of signin, signup and signout.
* A **user-service** is responsible for user management.
* A **post-service** exposes APIs for a simple CMS, including posts and comments.
* An **API Gateway** which is just responsible for routing the incoming requests to downstream services.
* The databases are also aligned to Microservices architecture, and **user-service** and **post-service** have their own databases, a **Redis** is used for sharing session between services, and to simplify the security.![Microservices ](./microservice.png)
As mentioned, if there is a [legacy application](https://github.com/hantsy/angularjs-springmvc-sample) planned to migrate to Microservices architecture, you can follow the following steps to extract some domain into a standalone service.
1. Find the domains which are easiest to separate from the main application, eg, posts and comments in our application.
2. Use an identifier object in the entity links instead of the hard relations of entities outside of this domain. eg. use a `Username` which stands for a unique username of a `User` entity, and erase the direct connection to `User` entity.
3. Move the related data to a standalone database, and connect to this new database in your service.When I start a new project, should I embrace Microservices architecture right now?
Although we are talking about Microservices in this post, I still suggest you start building your application in a monolithic architecture if you know little about the complexity of Microservices , it could be consisted of a RESTful backend and an SPA based frontend UI. In the initial development stage, either monolithic architecture or Microservices , you have to spend lots of time on clarifying the problem domains, defining the bounded context etc. Starting a monolithic application is still valuable when you are ready for migrating to Microservices architecture.
## Cooking your first service
This sample application is built on the newest Spring technology stack, including Spring Boot, Spring Data, Spring Security, etc.
* Every small service is a Spring Boot application. Every service will be packaged as a **jar** file and use the embedded Tomcat as target runtime to serve the services.
* Every small service owns its database, eg. we use MySQL as the backing database for **auth-service**, and PostgreSQL for the **post-service**.
* Spring Data is used for simplifying data operations.
* Spring Session provides a simple strategy to generate and validate header based authentication token via sharing sessions in a backing session repository, in this sample we use Redis as session storage.
* Spring Security is responsible for protecting RESTful APIs.Follow the 12 factors application guide, I suggest you use Docker in both development and production environment to make sure the same code base works well in different environments.
In this section, we will build our first service, **post-service**, which is designated to exposes REST APIs to clients.
### Prerequisites
I assume you have some experience of Spring, and know well about the [REST convention](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Representational_state_transfer), especially the [CHAPTER 5: Representational State Transfer (REST)](https://www.ics.uci.edu/~fielding/pubs/dissertation/rest_arch_style.htm) from Roy Fielding's dissertation: [Architectural Styles and
the Design of Network-based Software Architectures](https://www.ics.uci.edu/~fielding/pubs/dissertation/top.htm).And you have also installed the following software.
* JDK 8, eg. [Oracle Java 8 SDK](https://java.oracle.com)
* The latest [Apache Maven](https://maven.apache.org)
* Optional [Gradle](http://www.gradle.org) if you prefer Gradle as build tools
* Your favorite IDE, including :
* [NetBeans IDE](http://www.netbeans.org)
* [Eclipse IDE](http://www.eclipse.org) (or Eclipse based IDE, Spring ToolSuite is highly recommended)
* [Intellij IDEA](http://www.jetbrains.com)### Setup local development environment
Make sure you have installed the latest Docker, Docker Compose and Docker Machine, more info please refer to the installation guide from [Docker official website](https://www.docker.com).
>NOTE: Under Windows system, you can install Docker Desktop for Windows to simplify the installation.
Docker Compose allows you start up the dependent infrastructural services(such as Database etc) via a single `docker-compose` command.
```
docker-compose up
```We will use MySQL, PostgreSQL and Redis in this demo, the following is a sample *docker-compose.yml* file.
```yaml
version: '3.3' # specify docker-compose versionservices:
userdb:
container_name: userdb
image: mysql
ports:
- "3306:3306"
environment:
MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD: mysecret
MYSQL_USER: user
MYSQL_PASSWORD: password
MYSQL_DATABASE: userdb
volumes:
- ./data/userdb:/var/lib/mysql
postdb:
container_name: postdb
image: postgres
ports:
- "5432:5432"
restart: always
environment:
POSTGRES_PASSWORD: password
POSTGRES_DB: postdb
volumes:
- ./data/postdb:/var/lib/postgresql
redis:
container_name: redis
image: redis
ports:
- "6379:6379"
```#### Docker Toolbox Notes
If you are using the legacy Docker Toolbox, create a new machine for this project.
```
$ docker-machine create -d virtualbox --engine-registry-mirror https://docker.mirrors.ustc.edu.cn springms
```>NOTE: The `--engine-registry-mirror https://docker.mirrors.ustc.edu.cn` will add a docker registry mirror setting in docker-machine specific *config.json*. For most of Chinese users, using a local mirror will speed up the Docker images downloading.
Then switch to the new created machine **springms**, and set the environment variables.
```
eval "$(docker-machine env springms)"
```Forward the virtualbox ports to your local system, thus you can access the servers via `localhost` instead of the docker machine IP address.
```d
VBoxManage modifyvm "springms" --natpf1 "tcp-port3306,tcp,,3306,,3306"
VBoxManage modifyvm "springms" --natpf1 "tcp-port5432,tcp,,5432,,5432"
VBoxManage modifyvm "springms" --natpf1 "tcp-port5672,tcp,,5672,,5672"
VBoxManage modifyvm "springms" --natpf1 "tcp-port15672,tcp,,15672,,15672"
VBoxManage modifyvm "springms" --natpf1 "tcp-port6379,tcp,,6379,,6379"
VBoxManage modifyvm "springms" --natpf1 "tcp-port27017,tcp,,27017,,27017"
```Then run the dependent servers via `docker-compose` command line.
### Generate project skeleton
With [Spring Initializr](https://start.spring.io), you can get a Spring Boot based project skeleton in seconds.
Open your browser, go to [Spring Initializr](https://start.spring.io) page, fill the following essential fields for a project.
1. Choose **Java** as programming language.
2. Select the latest version of Spring Boot, **2.0.0.RELEASE** is the latest milestone at the moment when I wrote this post.
3. Search and select the required facilities will be used in your project, such as **Web**, **Data JPA**, **Data Redis**, **Security**, **Session**, **Lombok** etc.
4. Set project name(maven artifact id) to **post-service**.Click **Generate Project** button or press **ALT+ENTER** keys to generate the project skeleton for downloading in your browser.
After downloading the generated archive, extract the files into your local disk and import it into your favorite IDE.
### REST API Overview
Following the REST convention and HTTP protocol specification, the REST APIs of post-service are designed as the following table.
| Uri | Http Method | Request | Response | Description |
| ---------------------- | ----------- | ---------------------------------------- | ---------------------------------------- | ---------------------------------------- |
| /posts | GET | | 200, [{'id':1, 'title'},{}] | Get all posts |
| /posts | POST | {'id':1, 'title':'test title','content':'test content'} | 201 | Create a new post |
| /posts/{postSlug} | GET | | 200, {'id':1, 'title'} | Get a post by postSlug |
| /posts/{postSlug} | PUT | {'title':'test title','content':'test content'} | 204 | Update a post |
| /posts/{postSlug} | DELETE | | 204 | Delete a post by postSlug |
| /posts/{postSlug}/comments | GET | | 200, [{'id':1, 'content':'comment content'},{}] | Get all comments of the certain post |
| /posts/{postSlug}/comments | POST | {'content':'test content'} | 201 | Create a new comment of the certain post |### Create a new Entity
A domain entity is a persistent object in DDD concept, JPA `@Entity` a is a good match.
Create our first entity `Post`.
```java
@Data
@Builder
@NoArgsConstructor
@AllArgsConstructor
@Entity
class Post extends AuditableEntity {@JsonView(View.Summary.class)
@NotEmpty
private String title;
@NotEmpty
private String postSlug;@JsonView(View.Public.class)
@NotEmpty
private String content;@Enumerated(EnumType.STRING)
@Builder.Default
@JsonView(View.Summary.class)
private Status status = Status.DRAFT;static enum Status {
DRAFT,
PUBLISHED
}
@PrePersist
public void slugify(){
this.postSlug = new Slugify().slugify(this.title);
}}
````@Data`, `@Builder`, `@NoArgsConstructor` and `@AllArgsConstructor` are from project **Lombok**, which provides some helper annotations to make your source codes clean. With `@Data`, you can remove the tedious setters, getters of all fields, and the generic `equals`, `hashCode`, `toString` methods. `@Builder` will generate an inner builder class. `@NoArgsConstructor` will create a none-argument constructor, `@AllArgsConstructor` will take all fields as constructor arguments.
These annotations will be handled by JDK **Annotation Processing Tooling**, and generate code fragment in class files at compile time.
`@Entity` indicates `Post` is a standard JPA Entity.
`@PrePersist` is a JPA lifecycle hook. The `@PrePersist` annotated methods will be executed before the entity is persisted. We use post postSlug as the unique identifier of a `Post`, and we use `slugify()` method to generate the post postSlug automatically.
`AuditableEntity` is a helper class to centralize some common fields of a JPA entity in one place.
```java
@Data
@MappedSuperclass
@EntityListeners(value = AuditingEntityListener.class)
public abstract class AuditableEntity extends PersistableEntity {public AuditableEntity() {
}@CreatedDate
@JsonView(View.Summary.class)
protected LocalDateTime createdDate;@Embedded
@AttributeOverrides(value = {
@AttributeOverride(name = "username", column = @Column(name = "author"))
})
@CreatedBy
@JsonView(View.Summary.class)
protected Username author;}
````@CreatedDate` and `@CreatedBy` will fill in the creation date timestamp and the current user if the data auditing feature is enabled.
Use a standalone `@Configuration` bean to configure Spring Data JPA auditing.
```java
@Configuration
@EnableJpaAuditing(auditorAwareRef = "auditorAware")
@Slf4j
public class DataJpaConfig {@Bean
@Scope(value = ConfigurableBeanFactory.SCOPE_PROTOTYPE)
public AuditorAware auditorAware() {Authentication authentication = SecurityContextHolder.getContext().getAuthentication();
log.debug("current authentication:" + authentication);
if (authentication == null || !authentication.isAuthenticated()) {
return () -> Optional.empty();
}return () -> Optional.of(
Username.builder()
.username(((UserDetails) authentication.getPrincipal()).getUsername())
.build()
);}
}
````AuditorAware` bean is required when you want to set auditor automatically. The population work is done by JPA `@EntityListener`, note there is a `@EntityListeners(value = AuditingEntityListener.class)` already added on the `AuditableEntity` class.
Have a look at the base `PersistableEntity`, it just defines the identity field of a JPA entity.
```java
@Data
@MappedSuperclass
public abstract class PersistableEntity implements Serializable {
@Id
@GeneratedValue(strategy = GenerationType.AUTO)
@JsonView(View.Summary.class)
protected Long id;public PersistableEntity() {
}
}
```Similarly, create an another entity `Comment`.
```java
@Data
@Builder
@NoArgsConstructor
@AllArgsConstructor
@Entity
public class Comment extends AuditableEntity {@NotEmpty
@Size(min = 10)
private String content;@Embedded
@AttributeOverrides(
value = {
@AttributeOverride(name = "postSlug", column = @Column(name = "post_slug"))
}
)
@JsonIgnore
private Slug post;}
```>NOTE: we do not user a JPA `@OneToMany` or `@ManyToOne` to connect two entities, but use a simple Post `Slug` identifier object instead. If one day this service becomes heavy, we could split comments into another standalone service.
### Create `Repository` for Entities
In DDD, a **Repository** is responsible for retrieving entities from or saving back to a **Repository**. Spring Data `Repository` interface and Spring Data JPA specific `JpaRepository` interface are a good match with **Repository** concept in DDD.
Create a `Repository` for the `Post` Entity.
```java
public interface PostRepository extends JpaRepository, JpaSpecificationExecutor {Optional findBySlug(String postSlug);
}
```### Create a Domain Service
```java
@Service
@Transactional
public class PostService {@Inject
private PostRepository postRepository;
public Post createPost(PostForm form) {
Post _post = Post.builder()
.title(form.getTitle())
.content(form.getContent())
.build();
Post saved = this.postRepository.save(_post);
return saved;
}public Post updatePost(String postSlug, PostForm form) {
Post _post = this.postRepository.findBySlug(postSlug).orElseThrow(
()-> {
return new PostNotFoundException(postSlug);
}
);
_post.setTitle(form.getTitle());
_post.setContent(form.getContent());
Post saved = this.postRepository.save(_post);
return saved;
}public void deletePost(String postSlug) {
this.postRepository.delete(this.postRepository.findBySlug(postSlug).orElseThrow(
() -> {
return new PostNotFoundException(postSlug);
}
));
}}
```In the `PostService`, the main purpose is treating with exceptions when creating or update a post. In a real world application, you could handle domain events in a domain service, eg. Post is published, etc.
### Expose RESTful APIs
Let's expose RESTful APIs for `Post` via `PostController`.
```java
@RestController
@RequestMapping("/posts")
@Slf4j
public class PostController {private PostService postService;
private PostRepository postRepository;
private CommentRepository commentRepository;
public PostController(PostService postService, PostRepository postRepository, CommentRepository commentRepository) {
this.postService = postService;
this.postRepository = postRepository;
this.commentRepository = commentRepository;
}@GetMapping()
@JsonView(View.Summary.class)
public ResponseEntity> getAllPosts(
@RequestParam(value = "q", required = false) String keyword, //
@RequestParam(value = "status", required = false) Post.Status status, //
@PageableDefault(page = 0, size = 10, sort = "createdDate", direction = Direction.DESC) Pageable page) {log.debug("get all posts of q@" + keyword + ", status @" + status + ", page@" + page);
Page posts = this.postRepository.findAll(PostSpecifications.filterByKeywordAndStatus(keyword, status), page);
return ok(posts);
}@GetMapping(value = "/{postSlug}")
@JsonView(View.Public.class)
public ResponseEntity getPost(@PathVariable("postSlug") String postSlug) {log.debug("get postsinfo by postSlug @" + postSlug);
Post post = this.postRepository.findBySlug(postSlug).orElseThrow(
() -> {
return new PostNotFoundException(postSlug);
}
);log.debug("get post @" + post);
return ok(post);
}@PostMapping()
public ResponseEntity createPost(@RequestBody @Valid PostForm post, HttpServletRequest request) {log.debug("create a new post@" + post);
Post saved = this.postService.createPost(post);
log.debug("saved post id is @" + saved.getId());
URI createdUri = ServletUriComponentsBuilder
.fromContextPath(request)
.path("/posts/{postSlug}")
.buildAndExpand(saved.getSlug())
.toUri();return created(createdUri).build();
}@PutMapping(value = "/{postSlug}")
public ResponseEntity updatePost(@PathVariable("postSlug") String postSlug, @RequestBody @Valid PostForm form) {log.debug("update post by id @" + postSlug + ", form content@" + form);
this.postService.updatePost(postSlug, form);
return noContent().build();
}@DeleteMapping(value = "/{postSlug}")
public ResponseEntity deletePostById(@PathVariable("postSlug") String postSlug) {log.debug("delete post by id @" + postSlug);
this.postService.deletePost(postSlug);
return noContent().build();
}@GetMapping(value = "/{postSlug}/comments")
public ResponseEntity> getCommentsOfPost(
@PathVariable("postSlug") String postSlug,
@PageableDefault(page = 0, size = 10, sort = "createdDate", direction = Direction.DESC) Pageable page) {log.debug("get comments of post@" + postSlug + ", page@" + page);
Page commentsOfPost = this.commentRepository.findByPost(new Slug(postSlug), page);
log.debug("get post comment size @" + commentsOfPost.getTotalElements());
return ok(commentsOfPost);
}@PostMapping(value = "/{postSlug}/comments")
public ResponseEntity createComment(
@PathVariable("postSlug") @NotNull String postSlug, @RequestBody CommentForm comment, HttpServletRequest request) {log.debug("new comment of post@" + postSlug + ", comment" + comment);
Comment _comment = Comment.builder()
.post(new Slug(postSlug))
.content(comment.getContent())
.build();Comment saved = this.commentRepository.save(_comment);
log.debug("saved comment @" + saved.getId());
URI location = ServletUriComponentsBuilder
.fromContextPath(request)
.path("/posts/{postSlug}/comments/{id}")
.buildAndExpand(postSlug, saved.getId())
.toUri();return created(location).build();
}}
```In the above codes,
* `getAllPosts` method accepts a **q** (keyword) and a **status** (post status) and a `Pageable` as query parameters, it returns a `Page` result.
* The `postRepository.findAll` method accepts a `Specification` object. `Specification` is a wrapper class of JPA 2.0 criteria APIs, which provides effective type safe query condition building.```java
public class PostSpecifications {private PostSpecifications() {
}public static Specification filterByKeywordAndStatus(
final String keyword,//
final Post.Status status) {
return (Root root, CriteriaQuery> query, CriteriaBuilder cb) -> {
List predicates = new ArrayList<>();
if (StringUtils.hasText(keyword)) {
predicates.add(
cb.or(
cb.like(root.get(Post_.title), "%" + keyword + "%"),
cb.like(root.get(Post_.content), "%" + keyword + "%")
)
);
}if (status != null) {
predicates.add(cb.equal(root.get(Post_.status), status));
}return cb.and(predicates.toArray(new Predicate[predicates.size()]));
};
}}
```According to the REST convention and HTTP protocol, a HTTP POST Method is used to create a new resource, it can return a 201 HTTP status code with the new created resource URI as HTTP header **Location**. And for update and delete operations on resource, return a 204 HTTP status. In the above codes, we apply these simple rules.
### Exception Handling
As mentioned above, in our `PostService`, I have added some extra steps to check the existence of a post by id in the `updatePost` and `deletePost` methods. If it is not found throw a `PostNotFoundException`.
```java
public class PostNotFoundException extends RuntimeException {private String postSlug;
public PostNotFoundException(String postSlug) {
super("post:" + postSlug + " was not found");
this.postSlug = postSlug;
}public String getSlug() {
return postSlug;
}
}
```And we will handle this exception in a common class annotated with `@RestControllerAdvice`. When a `PostNotFoundException` is caught, `notFound` method will handle it convert the exception to a friendly message body and return a HTTP 404 status code to the client.
```java
@RestControllerAdvice
public class PostExceptionHandler {@ExceptionHandler(PostNotFoundException.class)
public ResponseEntity notFound(PostNotFoundException ex, WebRequest req) {
Map errors = new HashMap<>();
errors.put("entity", "POST");
errors.put("id", "" + ex.getSlug());
errors.put("code", "not_found");
errors.put("message", ex.getMessage());return ResponseEntity.status(HttpStatus.NOT_FOUND).body(errors);
}}
```### Miscellaneous
In a real world application, when you fetch post list, you maybe do not want to show all fields of the post. It is easy to control the representation view sent to client by customizing Jackson `JsonView`.
```java
public final class View {interface Summary {
}interface Public extends Summary {
}
}
```In the `Post` class, add the following annotations to its fields.
```java
class Post extends AuditableEntity {@JsonView(View.Summary.class)
private String title;
@JsonView(View.Public.class)
private String content;@JsonView(View.Summary.class)
private Status status = Status.DRAFT;}
```In the `PostController`, add a `@JsonView` annotation.
```java
@JsonView(View.Summary.class)
public ResponseEntity> getAllPosts()
```Thus only the `Summary` labeled fields will be included in the result of `getAllPosts`.
Another small issue you could have found is the `Page` object serialized result looks a little tedious, too much unused fields from `Pageable` are included in the json result.
```json

```The details of **auth-service** and **user-service**, please check the [source codes](https://github.com/hantsy/spring-Microservices -sample) and explore them yourself.
## Secures Microservices
Let's have a look at how a user get authentication in this demo.
1. A user try to get authentication from **auth-service** using usename and password.
2. If it is a valid user and it is authenticated successfully, the response header will include a **X-AUTH-TOKEN** header.
3. Extract the value of **X-AUTH-TOKEN** header, and add **X-AUTH-TOKEN** header into the new request to get access permission of the protected resource, such as APIs in **post-service**.We use Spring Session and Redis to archive this purpose.
In all services, we add the following codes to resolve Session by HTTP header instead of Cookie.
```java
@Configuration
public class RedisSessionConfig {@Bean
public HttpSessionIdResolver httpSessionStrategy() {
return HeaderHttpSessionIdResolver.xAuthToken();
}}
```And add the follow configuration in the *application.yml* to tell Spring to use Redis as session store.
```yml
spring:
session:
store-type: redis
```In **auth-service**, use a controller to serve user authentication.
```java
@RequestMapping(value = "/auth")
@RestController
public class AuthenticationController {@PostMapping(value = "/signin")
public AuthenticationResult signin(
@RequestBody @Valid AuthenticationRequest authenticationRequest,
HttpServletRequest request) {
if (log.isDebugEnabled()) {
log.debug("signin form data@" + authenticationRequest);
}
return this.handleAuthentication(
authenticationRequest.getUsername(),
authenticationRequest.getPassword(),
request);
}
private AuthenticationResult handleAuthentication(
String username,
String password,
HttpServletRequest request) {
final UsernamePasswordAuthenticationToken token = new UsernamePasswordAuthenticationToken(
username,
password
);
final Authentication authentication = this.authenticationManager
.authenticate(token);
SecurityContextHolder.getContext().setAuthentication(authentication);
final HttpSession session = request.getSession(true);
session.setAttribute(
HttpSessionSecurityContextRepository.SPRING_SECURITY_CONTEXT_KEY,
SecurityContextHolder.getContext());
return AuthenticationResult.builder()
.name(authentication.getName())
.roles(authentication.getAuthorities().stream().map(r -> r.getAuthority()).collect(Collectors.toList()))
.token(session.getId())
.build();
}
...
```When you are authenticated, the `/auth/signin` endpoint will return userinfo and token(session id) in the result.
To protect the resource APIs, just add a `SecurityConfig`. The following is a configuration for post-service. All **GET** methods are permitted, and when **DELETE** a post, you should have a **ADMIN** role.
```java
@Configuration
@Slf4j
public class SecurityConfig {
@Bean
public WebSecurityConfigurerAdapter securityConfigBean(){
return new WebSecurityConfigurerAdapter() {@Override
protected void configure(HttpSecurity http) throws Exception {
// We need this to prevent the browser from popping up a dialog on a 401
http
.httpBasic()
.and()
.authorizeRequests()
.antMatchers(HttpMethod.GET, "/posts/**").permitAll()
.antMatchers(HttpMethod.DELETE, "/posts/**").hasRole("ADMIN")
.anyRequest().authenticated()
.and()
.csrf().disable();
}
};
}
}
```Let's try to run the demo in local system.
## Running Microservices application
In your local development environment, it is easy to run the services one by one via Spring Boot maven plugin or build and run them in local Docker container via a predefined *docker compose* file.
### Running application via Maven plugin
Make sure the dependent servers are running by executing `docker-compose up`.
Enter the root folder of every service, execute the following command to start up them one by one.
```
mvn spring-boot:run // run in user-service, auth-service, post-service
```The following endpoints will be provided.
| Service | Url | Description |
| ------------ | ---------------------------------------- | ---------------------------------------- |
| auth-service | http://localhost:8000/user,http://localhost:8000/auth | Authentication APIs(signin, signup, signout), user info |
| user-service | http://localhost:8001/users | User management APIs |
| post-service | http://localhost:8002/posts | Post and comment APIs |Follow the authentication flow to have a try.
When all service are running successfully, firstly try to get authentication.

```You will see a `X-Auth-Token` header in the response.
Put this header into a new request when you want to access the protected resources in another resource server.
```

{"id":4,"title":"test post","content":"test content of post","status":"DRAFT","author":null,"createdDate":null}*
```### Running application via Docker Compose
Firstly build all services into Docker images.
Prepare a *Dockfile* for every service. For example, create a Dockerfile in the root folder of *post-service* project.
```dockerfile
FROM frolvlad/alpine-oraclejdk8:slim
VOLUME /tmp
ADD ./target/post-service-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT.jar app.jar
RUN sh -c 'touch /app.jar'
ENV JAVA_OPTS=""
ENTRYPOINT [ "sh", "-c", "java $JAVA_OPTS -Djava.security.egd=file:/dev/./urandom -jar /app.jar" ]
```The Dockerfile in **auth-service** and **user-service** are similar, just replaced the maven build target **jar** file.
```dockerfile
FROM frolvlad/alpine-oraclejdk8:slim
VOLUME /tmp
ADD ./target/auth-service-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT.jar app.jar
RUN sh -c 'touch /app.jar'
ENV JAVA_OPTS=""
ENTRYPOINT [ "sh", "-c", "java $JAVA_OPTS -Djava.security.egd=file:/dev/./urandom -jar /app.jar" ]
```
Create a *Dockerfile* for ngnix. We will use ngnix as a reverse proxy to unite the entry of the application.```dockerfile
# Set nginx base image
FROM nginx#RUN mkdir /etc/nginx/ssl
#COPY ssl /etc/nginx/ssl# Copy custom configuration file from the current directory
COPY nginx.conf /etc/nginx/nginx.conf
#COPY www /usr/share/nginx/www
#COPY archive /usr/share/nginx/archive
```And the content of *ngnix.conf*.
```conf
worker_processes 1;events { worker_connections 1024; }
http {
sendfile on;server {
listen 80;
server_name localhost;proxy_set_header Host $host;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $remote_addr;location /users {
proxy_pass http://user-service:8001;
}
location /posts {
proxy_pass http://post-service:8002;
}
location / {
proxy_pass http://auth-service:8000;
}
}
}
```Create a standalone docker-compose.local.yml file to run all services.
```yml
version: '3.1' # specify docker-compose versionservices:

```Run all services in your local system or a staging server.
Build the project via `mvn` command.
```
mvn clean package -DskipTests
```Then run the following command to run all services.
```
docker-compose -f docker-compose.yml -f docker-compose.local.yml up --build
```The `--build` parameter tells Docker build Docker images for all services firstly, then create containers based on the built images.
We have run a Nginx a reverse proxy, all APIs can be accessed through a single entry.
The following services will be provided.
| Service | Url | Description |
| ------------ | ---------------------------------------- | ---------------------------------------- |
| auth-service | http://localhost/user,http://localhost/auth | Authentication APIs(signin, signup, signout), user info |
| user-service | http://localhost/users | User management APIs |
| post-service | http://localhost/posts | Post and comment APIs |Next, let's try the endpoints by `curl` command.
Get authentication by sending user/password pair via HTTP BASIC header.
```

```## Testing Microservices
As stated in the previous sections, every single service is a small Spring Boot application. To test the whole Microservices application, firstly you should fully test the services/components themselves.
### Testing Single Service
Testing a single service is similar to testing a general Spring Boot application, for example, in this application, to test post service, you should test very components in this service.
* Simple POJOs, such as `@Entity` classes, DTOs.
* Database related facilities, such as JPA and `Repository` classes.
* Web layer, such as `Controller` and exception handlers.
* Additionally, integration tests is a must to ensure the application is working well close to a real world deployment environment.#### Testing POJOs
It is very simple, like testing a single POJO classes in a Java application, no dependent object in it. An example of testing the `Post` entity class.
```java
public class PostTest {@Test
public void testSlug() {
System.out.println("getSlug");
Post instance = new Post();
instance.setTitle("test post 1");
instance.slugify();
assertEquals("test-post-1", instance.getSlug());
}
}
```#### Testing Repository
There are some utilities can be used to test a Spring Data `Repository` bean.
For Spring Data JPA, there is a `@DataJpaTest` annotation which will autoconfigure the essential dependencies for testing a `Repository` bean, that means it does not load all beans from the application context when running the tests. And when adding an embedded RDBMS, such as H2 in the test classpath, it will bypass the real database configuration in the application properties and use the embedded database instead when running the tests.
Additionally, Spring Boot provides a `TestEntityManager` bean which is similar to the standard `EntityManager`, but provides more methods for test purpose.
Add H2 to test scope in the *pom.xml* file.
```xml
com.h2database
h2
test```
Create a test calss to test `PostRepository`.
```java
@RunWith(SpringRunner.class)
@DataJpaTest()
@Slf4j
public class PostRepositoryTest {
@Autowired
private TestEntityManager em;
@Autowired
PostRepository posts;
@Before
public void setup() {
assertNotNull("posts is not null", posts);
posts.deleteAllInBatch();
em.persist(Post.builder().title("test post 1").content("test content of test post 1").build());
}
@Test
public void testGetAllPosts() {
assertTrue(1 == posts.findAll().size());
Post post = posts.findAll().get(0);
assertTrue("test-post-1".equals(post.getSlug()));
}
}
```
#### Testing PostService
The `PostService` depends on `PostRepsoitory` bean. To test the internal logic of `PostService`, we can mock the dependent beans(eg. `PostRepository` bean) and stub the behavior of `PostRepository` bean, and verify the logic in `PostService` works as expected.
```java
@RunWith(SpringRunner.class)
@Slf4j
public class PostServiceTest {@MockBean
private PostRepository posts;@Autowired
private PostService postService;@Test
public void createPost() {
final String TITLE = "test post title";
final String CONTENT = "test post content";final PostForm input = PostForm.builder().title(TITLE).content(CONTENT).build();
Post expected = Post.builder().title(TITLE).content(CONTENT).build();
expected.setId(1L);given(posts.save(Post.builder().title(input.getTitle()).content(input.getContent()).build()))
.willReturn(expected);Post returned = postService.createPost(input);
assertTrue(returned == expected);
verify(posts, times(1)).save(any(Post.class));
verifyNoMoreInteractions(posts);
}@TestConfiguration
@Import(PostService.class)
static class TestConfig {}
}
```#### Testing web facilities
For Spring WebMVC applications, Spring Boot includes a simple `@WebMvcTest` to prepare the test environment for testing controller classes. When running a test annotated with `@WebMvcTest`, a `MockMvc` bean is available in the application context. In the `@WebMvcTest`, use the `controllers` to specify the controllers you wan to tests, and there is a `secure` attribute indicates if enabling Spring Security support in this test.
```java
@RunWith(SpringRunner.class)
@Slf4j
@WebMvcTest(controllers = PostController.class, secure = false)
public class PostControllerTest {@MockBean
PostRepository posts;@MockBean
CommentRepository comments;@MockBean
PostService postService;@Autowired
ObjectMapper objectMapper;@Autowired
MockMvc mockMvc;@Test
public void createPost() throws Exception {
Post _data = Post.builder().slug("test-my-first-post").title("my first post").content("my content of my post").build();
given(this.postService.createPost(any(PostForm.class)))
.willReturn(_data);this.mockMvc
.perform(
post("/posts")
.content(objectMapper.writeValueAsString(PostForm.builder().title("my first post").content("my content of my post").build()))
.contentType(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON)
)
.andExpect(status().isCreated())
.andExpect(header().exists("Location"));verify(this.postService, times(1)).createPost(any(PostForm.class));
verifyNoMoreInteractions(this.postService);
}}
```> Note: In the latest Spring Boot, the **secure** attribute of `@WebMvcTest` is deprecated. If you want to exclude Spring Security configuration, you have to exclude the Spring Security related Configurations, see [this example](https://github.com/hantsy/spring-webmvc-jwt-sample/blob/master/src/test/java/com/example/demo/VehicleControllerTest.java#L32).
For fine grained configure the `MockMvc`, you can create it through `MockMvcBuilders.standaloneSetup` or `MockMvcBuilders.webAppContextSetup`, the former will choose the controllers to tests, and the later will load all controllers from the application context.
The following is an example test using `MockMvcBuilders.standaloneSetup` to configure a `MockMvc` object.
```java
@SpringBootTest(webEnvironment = SpringBootTest.WebEnvironment.MOCK)
@RunWith(SpringRunner.class)
@Slf4j
public class ApplicationControllerMockMvcTest {@Autowired
WebApplicationContext wac;@MockBean
PostRepository posts;@MockBean
CommentRepository comments;@MockBean
PostService postService;@Autowired
ObjectMapper objectMapper;@Autowired
FilterChainProxy springSecurityFilterChain;MockMvc mockMvc;
@Before
public void setup() {
this.mockMvc = standaloneSetup(new PostController(postService, posts, comments))
.setCustomArgumentResolvers(
new PageableHandlerMethodArgumentResolver()
)
.setMessageConverters(
new MappingJackson2HttpMessageConverter(objectMapper)
)
.alwaysDo(print())
.apply(springSecurity(springSecurityFilterChain))
.build();
}@Test
//@Ignore
public void testGetAllPosts() throws Exception {
given(this.posts
.findAll(any(Specification.class), any(Pageable.class)))
.willReturn(
new PageImpl(
Arrays.asList(
Post.builder().title("my first post1").content("my content of my post1").build(),
Post.builder().title("my first post2").content("my content of my post2").build(),
Post.builder().title("my first post3").content("my content of my post3").build()
),
PageRequest.of(0, 10),
3L
)
);MvcResult result = this.mockMvc
.perform(
get("/posts?q=my")
.accept(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON)
)
.andExpect(status().isOk())
.andExpect(jsonPath("$.content[*].title", hasItem("my first post1")))
.andReturn();log.debug("mvc result:::" + result.getResponse().getContentAsString());
verify(this.posts, times(1)).findAll(any(Specification.class), any(Pageable.class));
verifyNoMoreInteractions(this.posts);
}@Test
public void createPostWithoutAuthentication() throws Exception {
Post _data = Post.builder().title("my first post").content("my content of my post").build();
given(this.postService.createPost(any(PostForm.class)))
.willReturn(_data);MvcResult result = this.mockMvc
.perform(
post("/posts")
.content(objectMapper.writeValueAsString(PostForm.builder().title("my first post").content("my content of my post").build()))
.contentType(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON)
)
.andExpect(status().isUnauthorized())
.andReturn();log.debug("mvc result::" + result.getResponse().getContentAsString());
verify(this.postService, times(0)).createPost(any(PostForm.class));
verifyNoMoreInteractions(this.postService);
}@Test
@WithMockUser
public void createPostWithMockUser() throws Exception {
Post _data = Post.builder().title("my first post").content("my content of my post").build();
given(this.postService.createPost(any(PostForm.class)))
.willReturn(_data);MvcResult result = this.mockMvc
.perform(
post("/posts")
.content(objectMapper.writeValueAsString(PostForm.builder().title("my first post").content("my content of my post").build()))
.contentType(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON)
)
.andExpect(status().isCreated())
.andExpect(header().string(HttpHeaders.LOCATION, containsString("/posts")))
.andReturn();log.debug("mvc result::" + result.getResponse().getContentAsString());
verify(this.postService, times(1)).createPost(any(PostForm.class));
}}
```Similarly you can build a `MockMvc` object using `MockMvcBuilders.webAppContextSetup`.
```java
this.mockMvc = webAppContextSetup(this.wac)
.alwaysDo(print())
.apply(springSecurity(springSecurityFilterChain))
.build();
```RestAssured also extends the MockMvc support through `io.rest-assured:spring-mock-mvc` module, explore the [RestAsssured MockMVC integration example](https://github.com/hantsy/spring-microservice-sample/blob/master/post-service/src/test/java/com/example/post/ApplicationRestAssuredMockMvcTest.java) yourself.
Next let's move on a small feature, I've created a `View` class to limit the result in the final JSON view. Let's create a test for verify it. Spring Boot provides a `@JsonTest` and allow you test the JSON serialization and deserialization.
```java
@RunWith(SpringRunner.class)
@JsonTest
@Slf4j
public class JsonViewTest {@Autowired
private JacksonTester json;@Test
public void serializeJson() throws IOException {
Post details = Post.builder().title("test title").content("test content").build();assertThat(this.json.write(details)).extractingJsonPathStringValue("@.title")
.isEqualTo("test title");
assertThat(this.json.write(details)).extractingJsonPathStringValue("@.content")
.isEqualTo("test content");}
@Test
public void serializeJsonWithView() throws IOException {
Post details = Post.builder().title("test title").content("test content").build();ObjectMapper mapper = new ObjectMapper();
String result = mapper
.writerWithView(View.Summary.class)
.writeValueAsString(details);
log.debug("result:::" + result);assertTrue(result.contains("test title"));
assertTrue(!result.contains("test content"));}
}
```#### Integration Tests
Now web run the application with all dependent services, esp. with the real database.
The following is a sample integration tests.
```java
@SpringBootTest(webEnvironment = WebEnvironment.RANDOM_PORT)
@RunWith(SpringRunner.class)
@Slf4j
public class IntegrationTests {@LocalServerPort
int port;@Autowired
PostRepository posts;@Autowired

String test_content = "test content";
String test_comment = "test_comment";
String slug = "";@Before
public void setup() {
RestAssured.reset();
RestAssured.port = this.port;
this.comments.deleteAllInBatch();
this.posts.deleteAllInBatch();Post post = posts.save(
Post.builder()
.title(test_title)
.content(test_content)
.build()
);
log.debug("saved post:" + post);
this.slug = post.getSlug();log.debug("print all posts:");
posts.findAll().forEach(System.out::println);Comment comment = this.comments.save(

);
log.debug("saved comment:" + comment);

}
```From the former sections, we have introduced how to get authentication from the **auth-service**. In the above codes, we add some custom Security configuration to override Spring [Security Config](https://github.com/hantsy/spring-microservice-sample/blob/master/post-service/src/main/java/com/example/post/PostServiceApplication.java#L51) to isolate the authentication from **auth-service**. Here we use a simple HTTP Basic authentication instead.
### Testing against External Service
In our application, the auth service depends on user service to complete the authentication process. There is a `UserServiceClient` in the auth service used for signup and authentication.
```java
@Component
public class UserServiceClient {private RestTemplate restTemplate;
private ObjectMapper objectMapper;
@Value("${services.user-service-url}")
private String userServiceUrl;public UserServiceClient(RestTemplateBuilder builder, ObjectMapper objectMapper) {
this.restTemplate = builder.build();
this.objectMapper = objectMapper;
}public void handleSignup(SignupForm form) {
try {
ResponseEntity response = this.restTemplate.postForEntity(userServiceUrl + "/users", form, Void.class);
} catch (HttpClientErrorException e) {
if (e.getStatusCode() == CONFLICT) {
Map map = null;
try {
map = objectMapper.readValue(e.getResponseBodyAsByteArray(), Map.class);
} catch (IOException e1) {
e1.printStackTrace();
}
throw new SignupConflictException((String) map.get("message"));
}
}
}public User findByUsername(String username) {
try {
ResponseEntity response = this.restTemplate.getForEntity(userServiceUrl + "/users/{username}", User.class, username);
return response.getBody();
} catch (HttpClientErrorException e) {
if (e.getStatusCode() == NOT_FOUND) {
return null;
}
}
return null;
}
}
```In the above codes, we use `RestTemplate` to access the remote *user service*. To test `UserServiceClient`, we have to mock a remote rest server to ensure the endpoints is available when running the tests. There are some several approaches to archive this.
* Spring provides a `MockRestServiceServer` to setup a mock rest service easily.
* [WireMock](http://wiremock.org/) is a more common solution for mocking HTTP endpoints.Next, let's explore them one by one.
#### MockRestServiceServer
The following is an example using `MockRestServiceServer`. The stubbing step is similar to the Mockito `when`/`given`, set the mocked data when submitting a specific request.
```java
@RunWith(SpringRunner.class)
@RestClientTest(UserServiceClient.class)
@Slf4j
public class UserServiceClientTest {@Value("${services.user-service-url:http://localhost:8001}")
private String userServiceUrl;@Autowired
private UserServiceClient client;@Autowired
private MockRestServiceServer server;@Test
public void testFindbyUsername() {
this.server.expect(requestTo(userServiceUrl + "/users/user"))
.andRespond(withSuccess(new ClassPathResource("/find-user-by-username.json"), MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON_UTF8));
//.andRespond(withSuccess("{\"username\":\"user\",\"password\":\"password\",\"email\":\"[email protected]\"}", MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON_UTF8));User user = this.client.findByUsername("user");
assertNotNull(user);
assertEquals("user", user.getUsername());this.server.verify();
}@Test
public void testFindbyUsername_notFound() {
this.server.expect(requestTo(userServiceUrl + "/users/user1"))
.andRespond(withStatus(NOT_FOUND));User user = this.client.findByUsername("user1");
assertNull(user);this.server.verify();
}
}
```Similar to Spring Boot `@WebMvcTest`, `@DataJpaTest`, etc. The `@RestClientTest` is also a *slice test* utility which only provides a `RestTemplateBuilder` in the test context.
#### WireMock
WireMock is a general purpose solution for mocking HTTP endpoints.
There is an example of using WireMock to test `UserServiceClient` .
```java
@RunWith(SpringRunner.class)
@SpringBootTest(webEnvironment = SpringBootTest.WebEnvironment.RANDOM_PORT)
@Slf4j
public class UserServiceClientWireMockTest {@Value("${services.user-service-url:http://localhost:8001}")
private String userServiceUrl;@Autowired
private UserServiceClient client;@Rule
public WireMockRule wireMockRule = new WireMockRule(options().port(8001));@Before
public void setup() {
WireMock.reset();
}@Test
public void testFindbyUsername() {stubFor(
get("/users/user")
//.withHeader("Accept", equalTo(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON_VALUE))
.willReturn(
okJson("{\"username\":\"user\",\"password\":\"password\",\"email\":\"[email protected]\"}")
)
);User user = this.client.findByUsername("user");
assertNotNull(user);
assertEquals("user", user.getUsername());verify(1, getRequestedFor(urlMatching( "/users/user")));
}@Test
public void testFindbyUsername_notFound() {
stubFor(
get( "/users/user1")
//.withHeader("Accept", equalTo(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON_VALUE))
.willReturn(
aResponse()
.withStatus(HttpStatus.SC_NOT_FOUND)
)
);User user = this.client.findByUsername("user1");
assertNull(user);verify(1, getRequestedFor(urlMatching( "/users/user1")));
}
}
```In the above codes, WireMock provides a `@Rule` to wire the stubbing into the lifecycle of the JUnit runner.
### Testing Service-to-Service Communication
The above `MockRestServiceServer` or `WireMock` is widely used when the existing external service is out of control, eg. it is from the 3rd party company or organization.
In our application, the auth service and user service are developed by ourselves, but may be produced by two different teams.
Assume when the auth service requires to embed the result of a `/users` endpoints that should be provided by user service, but at that moment such an AP does not exist in the user service at all. To resolve the problem, the best way is the developers from two sides sit down at a table and *sign a contract* about the communication details between these two services. Firstly the auth service developer lists all required HTTP endpoints that should be provided by the user service. For example.
* When sending a `GET` request on the endpoints `/users/user1`, then return a response with the json content like this: `{'username':'uesr', roles:'USER'}`, etc.
* When the requesting endpoint is `/users/noneexisting`, then return a 404 error.
* ...The user service developer reviews the requirements, and confirm the items one by one, and make sure they are on the same page.
Then they are back to work and focus on their own development. When the development(both side) is done, they can use a real world environment to verify if they have complied with the rules defined in the contracts they have signed.
In the software development world, this kind of scene is called *Consumer Driven Contracts*. In the CDC world, the auth service is called the API consumer, and the user service is the API producer/provider. In these years, CDC/Contracts testing becomes more and more popular.
Obviously, an advantage of applying this pattern is the consumer side can start work immediately when the contract is *signed* and do not need to wait for the complete work from the producer side.
There are a few projects available to improve the CDC development process.
* Spring Cloud includes a [Spring Cloud Contracts](https://spring.io/projects/spring-cloud-contract) subproject, which is heavily dependent on the Spring ecosystem.
* [Pact](https://pact.io/) is a general HTTP endpoints contracts verification solution, not limited to Spring ecosystem.#### Spring Cloud Contracts
[Spring Cloud Contracts Workshop](https://spring-cloud-samples.github.io/spring-cloud-contract-samples/workshops.html) provides the best practice when introducing Spring Cloud Contracts into your Microservices project.

## Deploying Microservices application
In this section, we will explore how to deploy the services to the popular container platform, including Docker Swarm and Kubernetes.
### Publishing Docker Images to Docker Hub
Create an account on the official [Docker Hub](https://hub.docker.com/), after the account is created, you will get a special namespace for yourself.
In former steps, we have set the image name with a *hantsy/* prefix where the hantsy is the account name in the DockerHub.
After the Docker is installed, you can login to docker hub in the terminal.
```bash
docker login// follow the guide to input user name and password to log in.
```Then run the following command to publish your Docker images to the public Docker Hub.
```bash
docker push hantsy/post-service
docker push hantsy/user-service
docker push hantsy/auth-service
docker push hantsy/ngnix-proxy
```When all are finished, go to [Docker Hub](https://hub.docker.com/), login and you will see the uploaded Docker images.
To verify the Docker Images is available via DockerHub, run the following commands to pull them from Docker Hub.
```bash
//remove the existing images.
docker rmi post-service//pull the docker images
docker pull hantsy/post-service
```If you do not want to expose your docker images to the public, choose a paid service or setup a private Docker registry server.
No panic the official docker registry is available as a Docker image, follow the official guide to [deploy a docker registry server](https://docs.docker.com/registry/deploying/).
Besides the official Docker Hub and private Docker registry, almost all cloud platforms provide private Docker registry service for the customers.
And Github and GitLab provides a Packages feature which includes hosting Docker images services, check the following docs:
* [Working with Github Packages Registry](https://docs.github.com/en/packages/working-with-a-github-packages-registry)
* [GitLab Container Registry](https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/user/packages/container_registry/)### Deploying to Docker Swarm
Use Docker Machine to create multiple nodes.
> These steps are tested on the legacy Docker Toolbox and use VritualBox as virtual machines. If you are using Docker Desktop for Windows, use Hyper-V instead.
In order to demonstrate running this project in Swarm mode, we will create two managers and three workers.
```
$ docker-machine create -d virtualbox --engine-registry-mirror https://docker.mirrors.ustc.edu.cn manager1
$ docker-machine create -d virtualbox --engine-registry-mirror https://docker.mirrors.ustc.edu.cn manager2
$ docker-machine create -d virtualbox --engine-registry-mirror https://docker.mirrors.ustc.edu.cn worker1
$ docker-machine create -d virtualbox --engine-registry-mirror https://docker.mirrors.ustc.edu.cn worker2
$ docker-machine create -d virtualbox --engine-registry-mirror https://docker.mirrors.ustc.edu.cn worker3
```List all docker machines you just created.
```
$ docker-machine ls
