Chalupa is a high-level framework for microservices, with the goal of making it easier to write better software faster. Software that is easy to write, test and maintain.
- TypeScript from the ground up. Chalupa is written in TypeScript and facilitates the use of TypeScript throughout.
- Decorator-based. Just write simple TypeScript classes, interfaces and methods, and then decorate them with the appropriate Chalupa decorators. No manual wiring needed, everything is taken care of by the framework.
- IoC container inside. By wrapping Inversify, Chalupa provides an IoC container for your service, making things like Dependency Injection as easy as ever.
- External service calls made visible. Make external service dependencies visible, typable and mockable using Chalupa's
@ExternalService()
decorator. Say goodbye to messy, impossible-to-test remote calls! - Code reuse and modularity. Want to create reusable components across services? Want to split a service into smaller units? Code reuse and modularity is explicitly supported and facilitated by Chalupa via so-called modules.
- Configuration support. Building on konvenient, Chalupa lets you create services which are easily and transparently configurable via environment variables and configuration files.
