I am developing a new microservice application that will be part of big architecture with lots of other microservices. This application needs to get content from other applications and I want to encapsulate HTTP calls into the service layer. But I noticed there are two different approaches.
Let's assume that my application will get contact information from another microservice which is deployed as User API.
-
Business as file
This approach has the business name as the file name. Inside the file, there is only one public method which is get
and it receives a single parameter. The method calls user-api/contact/{id}
.
Filename: contact.service.js
Method: get(id) -> contact
-
API as file
This approach encapsulates all communication between User API and the consumer application into a single file. There is a method for every endpoint provided for User API.
Filename: user.service.js
Method: getContact(id) -> contact
What are the pros and cons using these approaches?
