MicroServices Gateway / API Gateway

First things first, create an app/service:

TOOD: App or service??

iron create app
# OR
curl -H "Content-Type: application/json" -X POST -d '{"name":"myapp"}' http://localhost:8080/api/v1/apps

Now add routes to the app. First we'll add a route to the output of a docker container:

iron add route myapp /hello iron/hello
# OR
curl -H "Content-Type: application/json" -X POST -d '{"path":"/hello", "image":"iron/hello", "type":"run"}' http://localhost:8080/api/v1/apps/myapp/routes

And how about a slackbot endpoint:

curl -H "Content-Type: application/json" -X POST -d '{"path":"/guppy","image":"treeder/guppy:0.0.2", "content_type": "application/json"}' http://localhost:8080/api/v1/apps/myapp/routes

Test out the route:

Surf to: http://localhost:8080/hello?app=myapp

You'all also get a custom URL like this when in production.

myapp.ironfunctions.com/myroute

Updating Your Images

Tag your images with a version, eg treeder/guppy:0.0.5 then use that including the tag and update the route.
