ccvalidator

This project is created for learning purposes and to demonstrate various concepts in Go programming language, HTTP server development, and concurrency.

The project implements a credit card validator microservice using the Luhn algorithm. The microservice exposes functionality through a JSON API, allowing users to verify the validity of credit card numbers.

Installation

  1. Clone the repository:
  2. Navigate to the project directory:
  3. Build the project: 
    go build
  4. Run the project: 
    ./ccvalidator

The microservice will start running on port 8081 by default.

Usage

To validate a credit card number, send a POST request to the /validate endpoint with a JSON payload containing the credit card number:

curl -X POST http://localhost:8081/validate -d '{"card_number":"1234567890123456"}' -H "Content-Type: application/json"

Replace "1234567890123456" with the credit card number you want to validate.

API Response

The API response will be in JSON format:

{
  "is_valid": true,
  "message": "Validation complete"
}
