fdesjardins / protowebapi

A .NET Core Web API application to support searching for Medicaid applicants in various backend systems.

Prototype

An ASP.NET Core 2.0 web application that supports searching for Medicaid applicants. This is a prototype application that will assist the ARIES product team in its initial procurement.

This project primarily consists of a REST API for the Alaska MCI SOAP service and a web front-end. It also consists of Proof Of Concept for SQL Server and Postgres connections.

Environment

This app relies on ENV variables for configuration. Copy the example file and customize.

cd AKRestAPI
cp .env.example.bash .env
source .env

Note: .env.example.bash and .env.example.ps1 already has correct values for the docker-compose setup. Edit .env if you have to.

Running locally

We prefer using Docker locally. You can run the application with the dotnet CLI if you wish, but you're on your own for SQL Server and Postgres.

docker-compose build
docker-compose up -d
./sql-seed/seed-local-databases.sh

• If you make changes to the app, reload it with docker-compose build web && docker-compose up -d web.
• Follow logs with docker-compose logs -f.

Note: The SQL Server image requires 4G of RAM. You'll probably have to increase this limit in Docker settings.

Docker on Windows

Docker for Windows runs linux containers by default, and this works well. "Windows Containers" would be more performant, but will will not work out-of-the-box.

We include a .env.example.ps1 for Powershell. To seed your database change the extension of seed-local-databases.sh to .ps1 and run it in Powershell.

Running Tests

cd AKRestAPI.Tests
