## README

# Vert.x - From zero to (micro-) hero.

This repository is a lab about vert.x explaining how to build distributed _microservice_ reactive applications using
Vert.x.

Instructions are available on http://escoffier.me/vertx-hol

Complete code is available in the `solution` directory.

## Teasing

Vert.x is a toolkit to create reactive distributed applications running on the top of the Java Virtual Machine. Vert.x
exhibits very good performances, and a very simple and small API based on the asynchronous, non-blocking
development model.  With vert.x, you can developed microservices in Java, but also in JavaScript, Groovy, Ruby and
Ceylon. Vert.x also lets you interact with Node.JS, .NET or C applications.  

This lab is an introduction to microservice development using Vert.x. The application is a fake _trading_
application, and maybe you are going to become (virtually) rich! The applications is a federation of interaction microservices packaged as _fat-jar_ and creating a cluster.

## Content

## Want to improve this lab ?

Forks and PRs are definitely welcome !

## Building

To build the code:

    mvn clean install

To build the documentation:

    cd docs
    docker run -it -v `pwd`:/documents/ asciidoctor/docker-asciidoctor "./build.sh" "html"
    # or for fish
    docker run -it -v (pwd):/documents/ asciidoctor/docker-asciidoctor "./build.sh" "html"
