Simple movie service.

This movie service provides an HATEOAS style API (actually serializes in HTML for convenience).

The application is composed of two parts.

The first, in the namespace service provides the business logic and is based on dynamic polymorphism because we may expect heterogeneous implementations at runtime.

The second, in the namespace api provides an external API to discuss with the business logic and is base on static polymorphism.

Both combined creats a REST server that is browsable by an internet navigator.

Make sure you have a C++20 compatible compiler, CMake >= 3.23 and Conan >= 1.60. Or just use Docker.

Pull the code source from git, and just call conan to install the dependencies and build the project.

Here are the following steps:

mkdir build && cd build
conan install .. --build=missing
conan build ..

Or, if you want you can just build through the docker image:

docker build . -t ms:latest

Once the project is built, just run the service as simple executable. Two arguments are necessary, the address and the port:

./build/bin/ms 127.0.0.1 8081

or if built with docker:

docker run -p 8081 ms:latest

and just go to the url with your favorite web browser: http://localhost:8081.

In order to exploit the service, you can just go with your web browser on the adress given, just follow the href to follow the actions.
