centos7 - Facing issues while setting up Zuul API gateway for a Node.js based microservice

Question

I want to set up Zuul API Gateway. I have followed the steps given in the documentation. I am running zuul on CentOs 7. Following services are running:

• Zookeeper
• Nodepool-launcher
• Zuul-scheduler
• Zuul-executor
• Zuul-web

I have used nodepool static configuration, not the openstack configuration. Since I am new to Zuul or any API gateway, I am not being able to figure out what additional services will I need to get zuul running and to route the requests from zuul to the microservice. Any suggestions are most welcome!

P.S: I already have load-balancer in place. Will I still need to use Eureka service?

Answer 1

Since I am not familiar with CI/CD pipelines, I confused zuul-ci for zuul API Gateway. For future reference, the documentation that I followed is this. If anyone is trying to implement zuul API gateway for microservices, the documentation to be followed is this. Several other useful links are mentioned in the GitHub repo which could be handy for further information.
