A server app built to be deployed with node.js server based on Kettle that matches solution records to user needs and preferences.
The Rule-based Matchmaker operates by executing Kettle.
Firstly, install node and npm.
Run the following commands in your newly checked out Rule-based Matchmaker repository. This will install all dependencies that are required by the Rule-based Matchmaker.
npm install
grunt dedupe-infusion
To run the rule-based matchmaker, simply type:
[NODE_ENV={environment}] node bin/ruleBasedMatchMaker
- Default environment is "development".
For example:
set NODE_ENV=development
node bin/ruleBasedMatchMaker
The Rule-based Matchmaker currently supports the following urls:
{url_to_a_sample_matchmaker_server}/match // POST
Usage example using curl:
curl -X POST -H "Content-Type: application/json" localhost:8078/match -d @testData\universal\testData\preferences\vladimir.json
After running the command above, the output of the Rule-based Matchmaker will be shown in the console and it will be also stored at DEBUG\output.json.
If DEBUG\output.json is equal with the expected result: DEBUG\expectedTestOutcomes\vladimirOUT.json, then the Rule-based Matchmaker is running properly.
In order to run the Rule-based Matchmaker in conjunction with the GPII framework, please follow the instructions for setting up the GPII, ensure that the Rule-based Matchmaker is used for matchmaking and put the corresponding URL in the config file.
Make it work with the Rule-based RESTful web-service that you deployed in your own Apache Tomcat server
The current project is the "Node.js part" of the Rule-based Matchmaker (RBMM) that uses internally the "Maven RESTful part" of the RBMM. The "Maven RESTful part" of the RBMM is already deployed at http://160.40.50.183:8080. However, if you want to deploy the "Maven RESTful part" in your own Apache Tomcat server, please follow the steps below:
-
Follow the instructions included here for building and deploying the "Maven RESTful part"
-
Put in lib/RuleBasedMatchMaker.js the IP & Port of the Apache Tomcat server where you deployed the "Maven RESTful part" of the RBMM
