This is a simple REST-based webservice that allows users to lookup Japanese ZIP codes and get the address for it.
The dataset used is the official 住所の郵便番号（CSV形式） data provided by Japan Post. The service uses the 読み仮名データの促音・拗音を小書きで表記するもの version of the data.
You will need the following software/tools installed on your system
- Rust
- Docker (optional, provides the PostgreSQL database)
- PostgreSQL (not needed if you have Docker and use the provided docker-compose file)
Run cargo build --release to build a release build of the service.
Run cargo run to run a debug build of the service.
Then try one of the following curl examples:
# general healthcheck endpoint
curl -s http://localhost:8900/healthcheck | jq
{
"message": "ok"
}
# get a list of postcodes
curl -s http://localhost:8900/postcodes | jq
[
"0010000",
"0010010",
"0010011",
"0010012",
"0010013",
"0010014",
"0010015",
...
]
# get a list of cities in "postcode" (e.g. 1130034)
# you can use incomplete postcodes, e.g. only the first 3 digits
curl -s http://localhost:8900/postcodes/:postcode | jq
# example for 113-0034
curl -s http://localhost:8900/postcodes/1130034 | jq

]The database must be up and running for the service to work.
The following environment variables are read to connect to the database:
# showing default values here
JPZIP_DB_HOST="localhost"
JPZIP_DB_PORT=5432
JPZIP_DB_NAME="jpzip"
JPZIP_DB_USER="jpzip"
JPZIP_DB_PASSWORD="jpzip"The service can automatically download the data and import it into the dabase, but the schema must exists prior to that.
You can use a .env environment file to set those variables. See .env.example for an example.
You can use Docker to run the PostgreSQL database service. Check README.md for details.
