Moleculer service hasn't http server by default. If you want accept http requests, you should mixin your service with http server (create http server in created hook, start listen on started hook, then handle requests and call appropriate methods of your service).

@siridho The base moleculer framework provides the components to build brokered microservices which can communicate with each other using the broker over a multitude of transports. It's as simple as that. If you want/need to create a service which handles HTTP requests itself (essentially either acting as an API gateway routing requests to the service itself or other services registered on the bus) you may want to look at the Moleculer-Web project. It's a service mixin which will provide the HTTP server setup for you, you simple need to configure it.

You can of course set this up yourself but I personally think that this mixin works great and is highly configurable so you will probably find that it will do exactly what you need.
