Workshop Participation Service

Introduction

This repository hosts the Workshop Participation Service, a Flask application designed to facilitate the registration and withdrawal processes for workshops. It integrates with RabbitMQ to ensure that once a request is handled, a message is sent to the notification service for email dispatch and to the logging service for record-keeping.

Features

• Workshop Registration: Allows users to register for a workshop.
• Workshop Withdrawal: Enables users to withdraw from a workshop.
• RabbitMQ Integration: Communicates with RabbitMQ to send messages to other services.
• Email Notifications: Works with a notification service to send emails upon registration or withdrawal.
• Logging: Interacts with a logging service to log user actions.
