Plan again the project

[mauriciogeneroso]

Initially the idea was to create an ecommerce and create a basket but it was going to add some complexity like race-conditions and product management because I like creating a complete examples and the idea of closing a basket would have some race condition to resolve that I don't think is necessary to include this kind of complexity this portfolio project.

So, re-design the project to be:

• A service for registering support tickets
  • Two level of users, the customer and the support
  • Both can add comments in the ticket
  • Tickets will have statuses
  • validade statuses change
  • Create some endpoints to create ticket, update ticket, add comment, delete comment (admin permission), and close ticket
  • send kafka events for audit
• audit-service
  • this is going to be simple in functionality, it will consume from kafka messages and log the events

Tasks:

Part 1:

• Update service-dicovery
• Update gateway
• Study about the frontend and how it better integrate with keycloak
  • Is is better to redirect from gateway or use the gateway as a resource-server only?
  • There is not a better option, but both options are valid, as I would like to introduce a bit of frontend and isolate the backend from redirecting the requests I'll make the gateway a resoruce server that will validade the request/JWT via JWK

Part 2:

• Once the security pattern is decided, update identity-service

Part 3:

• Update the Readme with the new functionalities
• Create diagrams
• Create tickets in other services to implement

Part 4:

• Implement it
