It is an app that allows authenticated users to go through a loan application:

• Customer can create a loan
• Admin can approve the loan
• Customer can view loan belong to him
• Customer add a repayments

The whole application consists of three services: a nginx server, an app and a database mysql. These services are managed via docker-compose and can be installed and run by the following steps:

# clone the repository
$ [email protected]:dinhphien/loan-application.git

$ cd loan-application/

# install dependencies and start the whole application
$ make install
$ make startup

Note: Common issues you might encounter:

1. SQLSTATE[HY000] [2002] Connection refused: This is because the database is not ready to handle connection. You need to increase interval time for heathcheck in docker-compose.yml file

2. The stream or file "/mnt/code/storage/logs/laravel.log" could not be opened in append mode. This is the issue with file permissions between container and host user. You need to update USER_ID, GROUP_ID in docker-compose.yml file to be your current host user id and group id.

There is a postman collection in postman folder which can be imported into Postman application, so you can test this application via Postman.

Before start using loan functionalities, you can register a customer user. If you don't want to then you can use preconfigured users which are [email protected]/phien (customer user) and [email protected]/admin (admin user).

The app service is built using Laravel framework with MVC architectural pattern. Two additional layers: Service layer and Domain layer are added between Controller and Model layers to handle business logic for clarity and separation, rather than messing up the logic in either Controller or Model.

In Service layer, Publish/Subscribe pattern is applied to decouple the main workflow from other flows that act upon that.
