A boilerplate to use express server as a child process in Node.js app
"I was working on an application where I needed to isolate my api gateway , for security reasons and to keep my main app free from handling rest calls, so I made and use a separate express app as a child process in my Node.js app, and now I'm sharing this as a boilerplate for those who got same situation. This is not useful only for express, actually it's gonna work in all situations where the child process want to ask a question from it's parent, and needs the response,this will make everything easier, just as simple as calling an async function. "
To run this example all you need is to have a clone of this project, npm install and npm start
The dependencies are "uuid" and "express" where the express can be removed or modify to suit your needs.
