o2r informer

Node.js implementation of the WebSocket status update part of the o2r-web-api.

Requirements:

nodejs
npm
MongoDB

Preparing the MongoDB

This service uses the MongoDB oplog (operations log), which is normally used in replication sets, to trigger status events for clients. The oplog originally records all changes to the master MongoDB and provides them to potential replications. On a single-server installation, this is not enabled by default, so you will need to enable replication to enable the oplog.

Dockerfile

This project includes a Dockerfile which can be built with

docker build -t informer .

Available environment variables

INFORMER_PORT Define on which Port o2r-informer should listen. Defaults to 8082.
INFORMER_MONGODB Required Connection string for the MongoDB. Defaults to mongodb://localhost:27017/. You will very likely need to change this.
INFORMER_MONGODB_HOST and INFORMER_MONGODB_PORT Port for the MongoDB. Defaults to localhost respectively 27017. You will very likely need to change this. This information is duplicated with the previous setting because different packages are used to connect to the MongoDB.
INFORMER_MONGODB_DATABASE Which database inside the mongo db should be used. Defaults to muncher.

API endpoint

The current status of a job logs is published using WebSockets using the socket.io library. You can connect to the namespace api/v1/logs/job with the corresponding Socket.io JavaScript library:

var socket = io('http://<host>/api/v1/logs/job');

See an example in test/index.html.
