使用pREST构建RESTful API服务

发布时间: 2018-09-21

pREST is a way to serve a RESTful API from any databases written in Go.

具体使用方法官方doc已经写得很明白，如果是brew install prest的话，有个小坑就是所下载的prest是较低版本的，不支持template语法中的inFormat。如果着急尝鲜还是从github下载最新release较妥。

但是，真正爽的是，将prest容器化的尝试。用docker-compose去维护一个服务。

compose文件示例

这里创建一个docker-compose-metrics-data-monitor.yml作为compose配置文件，主要分两个部分，先启动pg，然后挂prest出去：

version: '0.1'
services:
    postgres:
        # $ PGPASSWORD=whofuckinthemaster psql -h "localhost" -p 5433 -U master metrics_monitor_metadata
        image: postgres:9.6
        ports:
            - 5433:5432
        environment:
            - POSTGRES_USER=master
            - POSTGRES_PASSWORD=master_password
            - POSTGRES_DB=metrics_monitor_metadata
        # Uncomment these lines to persist data on the local filesystem.
            - PGDATA=/var/lib/postgresql/data
        volumes:
            - ./pgdata:/var/lib/postgresql/data

    prest:
        image: prest/prest
        depends_on:
            - postgres
        links:
            - postgres
        environment:
            - PREST_CONF=/prest.toml
        ports:
            - "3000:3000"
        volumes:
            - ./prest.toml:/prest.toml
            - ./_quereies_api:/_quereies_api

prest.toml示例

首先构建一个prest.toml:

debug=true

[pg]
host = "postgres"
user = "master"
pass = "whofuckinthemaster"
port = 5432
database = "metrics_monitor_metadata"

[ssl]
mode = "disable"

[queries]
location = "_quereies_api"

[http]
port = 3000

[jwt]
default = false

启动
