Index

Chapter 8. Deploying Goophr

In Chapter 6, Goophr Concierge and Chapter 7, Goophr Librarian, we built two components of Goophr: Concierge and Librarian. We took time to understand the rationale behind the design of each of the components and how they are expected to work together.

In this chapter, we will conclude building Goophr by achieving the following objectives:

Update concierge/api/query.go so that Concierge can query multiple instances of Librarians for the search terms
Update docker-compose.yaml so that we can run the complete Goophr system with little effort
Test the setup by adding documents to the index and querying the index via the REST API
