This is the primary service of the control plane responsible for subscription and plan management.

Overview

A Microservice for handling subscription management operations. It provides -

• plan creations and management - plan includes plan tier - silo/pooled

• Billing Cycle handling - Billing cycle includes start date and end date etc

Installation

Install Subscription service using npm;

$ [npm install | yarn add] @sourceloop/subscription-service

Usage

• Create a new Loopback4 Application (If you don't have one already) lb4 testapp
• Install the subscription service npm i @sourceloop/subscription-service
• Set the environment variables.
• Run the migrations.
• Add the SubscriptionServiceComponent to your Loopback4 Application (in application.ts).

  // import the SubscriptionServiceComponent
  import {SubscriptionServiceComponent} from '@sourceloop/subscription-service';
  // add Component for subscription-service
  this.component(SubscriptionServiceComponent);
  

• Set up a Loopback4 Datasource with dataSourceName property set to SubscriptionDB. You can see an example datasource here.
• Bind any of the custom providers you need.

Setting up a DataSource

Here is a sample Implementation DataSource implementation using environment variables and PostgreSQL as the data source.

import {inject, lifeCycleObserver, LifeCycleObserver} from '@loopback/core';
import {juggler} from '@loopback/repository';
import {TenantManagementDbSourceName} from "@sourceloop/tenant-management-service";

const config = {
  name: SubscriptionDbSourceName,
  connector: 'postgresql',
  url: '',
  host: process.env.DB_HOST,
  port: process.env.DB_PORT,
  user: process.env.DB_USER,
  password: process.env.DB_PASSWORD,
  database: process.env.DB_DATABASE,
  schema: process.env.DB_SCHEMA,
};

@lifeCycleObserver('datasource')
export class AuthenticationDbDataSource
  extends juggler.DataSource
  implements LifeCycleObserver
{
  static dataSourceName = SubscriptionDbSourceName;
  static readonly defaultConfig = config;

  constructor(
    // You need to set datasource configuration name as 'datasources.config.Authentication' otherwise you might get Errors
    @inject(`datasources.config.${SubscriptionDbSourceName}`, {optional: true})
    dsConfig: object = config,
  ) {
    super(dsConfig);
  }
}

Migrations

The migrations required for this service can be copied from the service. You can customize or cherry-pick the migrations in the copied files according to your specific requirements and then apply them to the DB.
