ComposeMonVote is a containerized web application designed for managing and visualizing polls in real-time. The system consists of multiple services communicating together using Docker and Docker Compose.
The app allows users to vote in a poll, processes those votes asynchronously, and displays the results live. The architecture follows a microservices approach using Docker.
The project is composed of 5 services:
| Service | Description |
|---|---|
poll |
Web frontend where users can cast votes |
result |
Web interface to display real-time results |
worker |
Background processor that listens for votes and updates results |
redis |
Message broker used for temporary vote storage |
db |
Relational database to persist poll and result data |
- Docker
- Docker Compose
docker-compose up --build -dVote (poll): http://localhost:5000
Result (result): http://localhost:5001
| Service | Port |
|---|---|
| poll | 5000 |
| result | 5001 |
| worker | N/A (runs in background) |
| redis | 6379 |
| db | 5432 |
Environment variables can be defined in each service to configure DB connection strings, Redis hosts, etc.
Currently, the environment variables are basic. (POSTGRES_USER = myuser, POSTGRES_PASSWORD = mypassword)
