Installation

or

Create your first microservice

This example shows you how to create a small service with an add action which can add two numbers and how to call it.

const { ServiceBroker } = require("moleculer");

// Create a broker
const broker = new ServiceBroker();

// Create a service
broker.createService({
    name: "math",
    actions: {
        add(ctx) {
            return Number(ctx.params.a) + Number(ctx.params.b);
        }
    }
});

// Start broker
broker.start()
    // Call service
    .then(() => broker.call("math.add", { a: 5, b: 3 }))
    .then(res => console.log("5 + 3 =", res))
    .catch(err => console.error(`Error occurred! ${err.message}`));

Try it in your browser

Create a Moleculer project

Use the Moleculer CLI tool to create a new Moleculer based microservices project.

  1. Create a new project (named moleculer-demo)

    $ npx moleculer-cli -c moleculer init project moleculer-demo
  2. Open the project folder

    $ cd moleculer-demo
  3. Start the project

    $ npm run dev
  4. Open the http://localhost:3000/ link in your browser. It shows a welcome page that contains more information about your project & you can test the generated services.

🎉 Congratulations! Your first Moleculer-based microservices project is created. Read our documentation to learn more about Moleculer.
