steedos-server-architecture

The Steedos server architecture integrates NestJS modules with Moleculer service orchestration to manage the low-code backend. It wires controllers, services, and authentication guards to expose REST and real-time capabilities.

The bootstrap sequence initializes the NestJS application alongside Moleculer service orchestration, configuring Express middleware and core guards. This setup establishes the runtime environment for REST and real-time API endpoints.

You extend NestJS controllers and services by following the documented module layout and bootstrap patterns. This allows you to accurately wire new REST endpoints and integrate custom logic into the existing Moleculer architecture.

Yes, the Steedos backend supports Socket.IO and Redis integration. The architecture clarifies these specific integration points to enable real-time capabilities and distributed service orchestration within the low-code platform.

Authentication guards are wired during the NestJS bootstrap sequence and middleware stack configuration. They intercept incoming requests to secure REST endpoints before Moleculer services process the business logic.

You need to understand the server module layout when you intend to contribute to or extend the low-code backend. It details how controllers, services, and ecosystem components connect to support custom implementations.
