[![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/BohemiaInteractive/bi-service.svg?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/BohemiaInteractive/bi-service)  [![Test Coverage](https://codeclimate.com/github/BohemiaInteractive/bi-service/badges/coverage.svg)](https://codeclimate.com/github/BohemiaInteractive/bi-service/coverage) [![npm version](https://badge.fury.io/js/bi-service.svg)](https://www.npmjs.com/package/bi-service)  


`bi-service` is an abstraction layer with common interface for creating not-only web applications but also any apps that match the `request & response` pattern whether an underlying communication protocol is `HTTP`, `AMQP` (message queues), `IPC` or other..  
Emphasis is put among other [features](https://github.com/BohemiaInteractive/bi-service#features) on product API documentation, validation, error handling and automation of perpetually repeated tasks.

**Why?**  
So that basic project foundations and application architecture doesn't need to be invented again and again for each (web) service.  
The project empowers minimalistic but mature libraries like [express]() and does its job on top of them striving for clean scalable, testable and consistent applications.
