Lifetime and Daily Leaderboard for streaming application

Overview

This repository contains a backend service built in Go for video streaming leaderboard. It implements a leaderboard functionality to track both daily and lifetime views of videos. The architecture follows the Onion pattern and draws inspiration from Go-Kit for its design.

Features

• Daily and Lifetime Views: Tracks views of videos on a daily and overall (lifetime) basis.
• Scalable & Distributed: Utilizes Redis for caching and Consul for service discovery, making it scalable and easy to manage.
• Onion Architecture: Organized in layers for modularity and ease of maintenance.

Tech Stack

• Go (Golang): Main programming language used for development.
• Redis: Used for caching video views and leaderboard scores.
• Docker: Enables containerization for easy deployment and portability.
• Consul: Configuration loading for distributed architecture

Architecture

The project is structured based on the Onion architecture, promoting clean and maintainable code. It's divided into layers:

• Core: Contains the business logic and domain models.
• Repositories: Handles data access and interactions with Redis.
• Services: Implements service-level logic.
• Transport: Manages HTTP endpoints.

Setup

• Clone the Repository:

git clone https://github.com/SurajKadam7/leaderboard_microservice.git

• Build & Run Using Docker:

docker compose up -d
