I. Overview

xStreamer comes with 3 big parts

  • API server

  • Frontend web server (front office, user)

  • Backend web server (back office, admin)

II. Details

1. Api

Api server uses these frameworks / softwares on the top:

  • NestJS as a main framework

  • DB: MongoDB

  • Cache: Redis

  • Messaging: Redis

  • Queue: Redis

1.1 Folder Structures

With structures above we can see xStreamer split applications to smaller modules, each module is responsible the app logic

1.2 Module structure

A general module will come with below structure.

  • controllers: provide Restful Apis to external / internal eg: GET /users/:userId to get user info

  • dtos: acronym of Data Transfer Object. It is an object which helps transfer data from request to database, among services, etc…

  • exceptions: contains http exceptions

  • listeners: listen and handle business logic when receive an event (like messaging listener service)

  • models: define Mongoose database model

  • payloads: define request payload from external to server and validate with class validator

  • providers: Providers are a fundamental concept in Nest. Many of the basic Nest classes may be treated as a provider – services, repositories, factories, helpers, and so on. The main idea of a provider is that it can inject dependencies; this means objects can create various relationships with each other, and the function of "wiring up" instances of objects can largely be delegated to the Nest runtime system.

  • schemas: provide mongo db schemas

  • services: service will be responsible for data storage and retrieval, provide method to communicate with another service

  • validators: provide custom class-validator methods

Example for user module

controllers --user.controller.ts --admin-user.controller.ts dtos --user.dto.ts --index.ts exceptions --account-not-found.exception.ts --index.ts listeners --user-connected.listener.ts --index.ts models --user.model.ts --index.ts payloads --user-create.payload.ts --user-update.payload.ts --... providers --user.providers.ts --index.ts schema --user.schema.ts --index.ts services --user.service.ts --user-search.service.ts --index.ts validators --username.validator.ts constants.ts user.module.ts

2. Frontend web

Frontend web use NextJS as a main framework, TailwindCSS for styling

2.1 Folder structure
