Usage

Database

Cuckoo is a microservice, because of that, it uses a database to store its schedulings, which is MongoDB.

In order to get Cuckoo to work, you need to have a Mongo instance with a valid empty database which Cuckoo will use to store its data.

See:

• How to run a Mongo Docker image
• MongoDB Website

Then set an .envrc file with your variables following the .envrc.sample file in order to run it in development. For production, set these as environment variables

Headers

Every request of this microservice accepts the following headers:

• x-on-behalf-of: Id of the user who created the scheduling
• x-app-id: Id of the client app that was used to create the scheduling

Errors

Every error will be reported by this microservice following this schema:

{
  "status": 404,
  "error": {
    "code": "not_found",
    "message": "Scheduling \"123\" could not be found"
  }
