-### Structure+==== Structure ====
  
-The microservice consists of four folders containing several scripts, which are designated to perform certain tasks. We have the *scripts*-folder containing scripts, that will be called by cron-jobs mainly for caching purposes. Then we have the *services*-folder containing files, that consist of functions useful to process incoming requests from the chatbot and to generate a formatted answer-string, that contains the requested meal-menu of a specific day from the Beuth mensa. The *routes*-folder consists of all the routes, that can be addressed. In the next chapters we will get into more details about the scripts and their functions.+The microservice consists of four folders containing several scripts, which are designated to perform certain tasks. Then we have the **services**-folder containing files, that consist of functions useful to process incoming requests from the chatbot and to generate a formatted answer-string, that contains the requested meal-menu of a specific day from the Beuth mensa. The **routes**-folder consists of all the routes, that can be addressed. In the next chapters we will get into more details about the scripts and their functions.
  
-### Functionalities+==== Functionalities ====
  
-On request, this microservice makes calls to the [OpenMensa API](https://doc.openmensa.org/api/v2/). The received data is processed by services that give a list of filtered and unfiltered meals of the mensa of the Beuth University for Applied Sciences. Mainly this service was built throughout the Masterprojekt module that is a mandatory part of the media informatics master course of the Beuth University for Applied Sciences.+On request, this microservice makes calls to the [[https://doc.openmensa.org/api/v2/|OpenMensa API]].

Mainly this service was built throughout the Masterprojekt module that is a mandatory part of the media informatics master course of the Beuth University for Applied Sciences.
  
-#### The scripts-folder+==== Project structure ====
  
-This folder contains two scripts, that will be called by a cron job once a day. Probably early in the morning. `getMealsOfTheDay.js` makes a request to the [OpenMensa API](https://doc.openmensa.org/api/v2/) and caches the answer. After that `writeResponseFile.json` is called and generates a pretty formatted answer-string. Now everytime a User wants to know the meals for the day, we can just read it out of the cached data. +=== The services-folder ===

-###### mealsOfSpecificDayService.js +=== The routes-folder ===
- +
-If a day other than the current day is requested, we need to make another request to the OpenMensa-API, fetch the meals for that specific day, cache them and maybe need to filter them. This is all done by this script. +
- +
-#### The routes-folder+
  
 This folder contains all the routes, that can be addressed on this server. The `index.js` manages all the routes. We've only got two routes in our project. The `/swagger`-route leads you to the swagger documentation of this project.  This folder contains all the routes, that can be addressed on this server. The `index.js` manages all the routes.

 The `/meals`-route will be called by another component of the Beuthbot via `POST`. It expects a message JSON-object containing the requested date for the meals and the filters - to request only specific meals. It then calls all the functions needed to perform requests and generates an answer, which is finally send back as a response to the Chatbot. The `/meals`-route will be called by another component of the Beuthbot via `POST`.
