A simple VIN decoding microservice
1.2K
A simple VIN decoding microservice wrapped around the vin_decoder package written in Dart.
The application can be activated from pub directly:
$ pub global activate --source path <path to repository>
Package vin_decoder_service is currently active at path "...".
Installed executable vindecoder-service.
Activated vin_decoder_service 0.0.4 at path "...".
The vindecoder-service can run standalone, or can register itself with a Consul Agent to ease with service discovery.
By default, an attempt to register with Consul will be made.
To run standalone on the server side and inhibit Consul registration, the --no-use-consul flag may be specified:
$ vindecoder-service --no-use-consul
VIN Decoder Service Registered on 0.0.0.0:8080/vin
...
otherwise, the default behaviour applies, and service registration will be attempted with the defined (or default) agent:
$ vindecoder-service
Registering VIN Decoder Service with Consul Agent @ localhost:8500
VIN Decoder Service Registered on 0.0.0.0:8080/vin
...
An overview of supported commands and flags is provided below:
$ vindecoder-service --help
usage: vindecoder-service [-pcu]
-p, --port Port to bind to
(defaults to "8080")
-c, --consul-agent Consul Agent to register service with
(defaults to "localhost:8500")
-u, --[no-]use-consul Use Consul for service registration
(defaults to on)
-h, --help Show usage info
From the client side, decoding may be tested by sending a JSON-encoded VIN string:
$ curl -X POST -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{ "vin": "WP0ZZZ99ZTS392124" }' http://localhost:8080/vin
with the decoded VIN returned in the POST response body:
{"wmi":"WP0","vds":"ZZZ99Z","vis":"TS392124","year":"1996","region":"EU","manufacturer":"Porsche","assembly_plant":"S","serial_number":"92124","make":"Porsche","model":"911","vehicle_type":"Passenger Car"}
Docker images are provided under adaptant/vin-decoder-service and can be run without any special configuration:
$ docker run -d -p 8080:8080 adaptant/vin-decoder-service
