why? instagram is the biggest vangav backend template designed for big scale and covering all the core features/utilities: service oriented architecture, worker service, multi-entry-point api, multi-keysapce database, oauth 2, facebook authentication, facebook graph api, rest jobs, periodic jobs, vangav mighty, push notifications, logging, analytics, client generator, test service, bots service, ...
- signup/login using email/facebook
- request authentication using oauth 2
- fetching/updating users' information
- follow/unfollow and get followers/following lists for users
- posting photos
- get posts by feed and by user
- interacting with posts (like, comment, ...)
- get top users/posts
- searching for users
- get server time
- is a helper service for instagram; responsible for distributing posted photos to followers (because on photo can be posted to tens of millions of followers; such an expensive operation should be distributable and shouldn't overload the main service)
- crawls for failed jobs in the database to retry executing them (e.g.: a dispense job, ...)
- uses vangav mighty to update top users (per geo grid, per country and world wide) every week
- uses vangav mighty to update top posts (per geo grid, per country and world wide) every day
- writes logs and analytics in the database
- sends push notifications (ios and android)
- handles fetching logs and analytics for system admin
- has a full-coverage test for all the services above
- simulates incremental usage behavior from many cities around the world with some celebrity users
- this service is based on vangav backend's instagram template
- this service has the 90+% of the vangav backend's generated code + the 10-% of the logic code needed to complete the service
- for first timers - follow the steps in the system requirements tutorial
- for first timers - follow the steps in the workspace initialization tutorial
- download instagram, instagram dispense, instagram jobs, instagram worker and instagram dash board projects (from the green
clone or download button) inside the workspace directory created previously (my_services) and unzip them
- rename unzipped directories, remove the
-master from their names
- in the terminal
cd to vos_instagram/cassandra/cql/
- execute
./_start_cassandra.sh to start cassandra
cd to vos_instagram/cassandra/cql/drop_and_create/- execute the commands
./_execute_cql.sh ig_....cql to initialize the services' database tables; repeat this step for all the .cql files
cd to vos_instagram_worker and execute ./_run.sh to start the instagram worker service on port 8000cd to vos_instagram_dispense and execute ./_run.sh 3000 to start the instagram dispense service on port 3000cd to vos_instagram_jobs and execute ./_run.sh 4000 to start the instagram jobs service on port 4000cd to vos_instagram_dash_board and execute ./_run.sh 5000 to start the instagram dash board service on port 5000cd to vos_instagram and execute ./_run.sh to start the instagram service on port 9000- from your prefered client (we recommned postman) start trying the service; refer to the features and service references sections for reference
- at the end to stop the services: press
control + d in the terminal session where each service was started in (9, 10, 11, 12 and 13)
- to stop cassandra: execute
ps auwx | grep cassandra to get cassandra's (pid) then kill -9 (pid) to stop cassandra
- follow the following steps to import the downloaded backend service in eclipse
cd to the service's directory and execute the ./_eclipsify.sh script- file > import > general > existing projects into workspace > next > set "select root directory" to my_services > under projects make sure that vos_calculate_sum is selected > finish
- double check the java version used for compiling the project: right click the project > properties > java compiler > enable project specific settings > compiler compliance level > 1.7 or 1.8
- generate multiple services (main + dispense + jobs + worker + dash board) to work together in a service oriented architecture
- generate a multi-keyspace database
- oauth 2 and facebook authentication
- facebook graph api
- rest jobs
- periodic jobs
- vangav mighty
- push notifications
- logging
- analytics
- client generator
- test and bots services
