Location Reporter Microservice. This is part of the suite of services used for the Event Sourcing / CQRS sample in the Microservices with ASP.NET Core book from O'Reilly Media. This sample fills the role of the command submitter. Applications (mobile, web, embedded, etc) will consume this service to indicate that a new location of a team member has been determined.
While this is a simple service with a single command to submit (location report), real-world samples often have multiple command services responsible for ingesting a wide variety of commands.
This service will then convert a command into an event, which is typically done by turning the payload of the command (an expression of intent, e.g. please record this team member's location, to something that has occurred in the past, e.g. member location recorded).
The API for this service is quite simple:
| Resource | Method | Description |
|---|---|---|
| /api/members/{memberId}/locationreports | POST | Submits a new location report to the service |
