Overview of this book

The capabilities of the Swift programming language are extended to server-side development using popular frameworks such as Vapor. This enables Swift programmers to implement the microservices approach to design scalable and easy-to-maintain architecture for iOS, macOS, iPadOS, and watchOS applications. This book is a complete guide to building microservices for iOS applications. You’ll start by examining Swift and Vapor as backend technologies and compare them to their alternatives. The book then covers the concept of microservices to help you get started with developing your first microservice. Throughout this book, you’ll work on a case study of writing an e-commerce backend as a microservice application. You’ll understand each microservice as it is broken down into details and written out as code throughout the book. You’ll also become familiar with various aspects of server-side development such as scalability, database options, and information flow for microservices that are unwrapped in the process. As you advance, you’ll get to grips with microservices testing and see how it is different from testing a monolith application. Along the way, you’ll explore tools such as Docker, Postman, and Amazon Web Services. By the end of the book, you’ll be able to build a ready-to-deploy application that can be used as a base for future applications.

Summary

In this chapter, you have learned how to write a microservice based on the template we created in the previous chapters. You have planned the routes and written the entire code base for the service. We started by configuring and defining the routes of this service. We then started writing helper functions and extensions. We also wrote the I/O and database models and finished by writing the functions of the controllers.

Now, you have learned how to write an extended microservice that is the first block of our shop backend use case. This is also important because you can use this service in other applications.

You should be proud of yourself; this is a big step. Also, this service can be the starting point for many other web projects. In the next chapter, we will cover how microservices will communicate with each other, and you will learn how to test microservices.
