Yes, the tooling is weak. Now, let's convince the engineering managers to spend a bunch of time building tooling to start everything together and fix service discovery on localhost. Turns out, they'd rather build features.
I'm with you 100%. It drives me crazy, but right now you cannot run multiple services locally without a bunch of fiddling.
- nawitus 10y agoIn my own projects you can start up every microservice with a single command / script. Yes, having sufficient tooling for microservices does consume resources.
- cookiecaper 10y agoIt's not impossible. As a sibling comment says, it usually just requires a bunch of ad-hoc scripts to make sure everything is running. This does get increasingly complex, especially as microservices are written with different stacks, but that's part of the tradeoff.
