API Endpoints

1. List all products - GET /products

2. Retrieve a specific product by ID - GET /products/{id}

curl -X GET http://localhost:8080/products/1 | jq

3. Add a new product - POST /products

curl -X POST http://localhost:8080/products -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{"id": 21, "name": "New Product", "price": 500}' | jq

4. Update an existing product by ID - PUT /products/{id}

curl -X PUT http://localhost:8080/products/1 -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{"id": 1, "name": "Updated Product", "price": 1600}' | jq

5. Remove a product by ID - DELETE /products/{id}

curl -X DELETE http://localhost:8080/products/1 | jq

Docker Setup

Step 1: Create the JAR File

To create a JAR file for the project, ensure you have Maven installed. Then, navigate to the root of your project directory and run the following command:

cd microcommerce
mvn clean package -DskipTests

After executing this command, the JAR file will be generated in the target directory, typically named microcommerce-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT.jar.

Step 2: Create a Docker Image

To create a Docker image for your Spring Boot application, you need a Dockerfile. In the root of your project directory, create a file named Dockerfile with the following content:

# Use a base image that includes Java
FROM openjdk:17-jdk-slim

# Set the working directory in the container
WORKDIR /app

# Copy the Maven build output (JAR file) to the container
COPY target/microcommerce-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT.jar microcommerce.jar

# Expose the application port
EXPOSE 8080

# Define the command to run the application
ENTRYPOINT ["java", "-jar", "microcommerce.jar"]

Then, build the Docker image using the following command:

docker build -t microcommerce-image .

Step 3: Create and Run a Docker Container

Once the Docker image is built, you can create and run a Docker container using the following command:

docker run -d -p 8080:8080 --name microcommerce-container microcommerce-image

• This command will run the container in detached mode, mapping port 8080 on your host to port 8080 in the container.

Accessing the Application

After the container is running, you can access the Spring Boot application at:

http://localhost:8080/products

Stopping and Removing the Container

To stop the running container, use the following command:

docker stop microcommerce-container

To remove the container, use:

docker rm microcommerce-container
