A modern, scalable ride-sharing platform built with a microservices architecture.
Urban Ride is a comprehensive ride-hailing solution that connects riders with drivers in real-time. The platform is built using a microservices architecture to ensure scalability, maintainability, and high availability.
This project follows a microservices architecture with the following structure:
urban-ride/
├── apps/
│ ├── services/ # Backend microservices
│ │ ├── auth/ # Authentication & Authorization service
│ │ ├── location/ # Real-time location tracking service
│ │ ├── payment-rating/# Payment processing & rating system
│ │ └── trip-manager/ # Trip management & matching service
│ └── web/ # Web application (frontend)
| Service | Description |
|---|---|
| Auth | Handles user authentication, authorization, and session management |
| Location | Manages real-time location tracking, geofencing, and nearby driver discovery |
| Payment-Rating | Processes payments, handles billing, and manages rider/driver ratings |
| Trip-Manager | Manages trip lifecycle, driver-rider matching, and trip state management |
Note: Specific technologies will be configured as the project develops. Expected stack includes:
- Backend: Node.js/Python microservices
- Frontend: React/Next.js web application
- Database: PostgreSQL/MongoDB (per service)
- Message Queue: RabbitMQ/Kafka for inter-service communication
- API Gateway: Centralized API gateway for request routing
- Container: Docker & Kubernetes for orchestration
Before you begin, ensure you have the following installed:
- Node.js (v18 or higher)
- npm or yarn package manager
- Git for version control
- Docker (optional, for containerized development)
git clone https://github.com/your-org/urban-ride.git
cd urban-rideEach service has its own dependencies. Navigate to the specific service directory:
# Example for auth service
cd apps/services/auth
npm install
# Repeat for other servicesCreate a .env file in each service directory with the required environment variables. Refer to .env.example files in each service for guidance.
# Development mode
npm run dev
# Production mode
