Introduction

News Threads Client is a web application for exploring and tracing news provenance across time over a collection of documents. This project can ingest and analyze data produced by the News-Threads data pipeline.

News Provenance research

Getting Started

Prerequisites

Data Ingestion

The scripts package provides commands for ingesting data produced by News-Threads. See packages/scripts for more information and instructions.

Configuration

By default, the Azure Function API will run on port 7071 and connect to a local MongoDB instance, mongodb://localhost:27017/. Default configuration settings can be changed by updating packages/<package>/config/default.json. Alternatively, default configuration settings can be overwritten by adding local-<NODE_ENV>.json configuration files to the corresponding config directory.

Startup

> pnpm install # --ignore-engines (if azure gives you grief about node version)
> pnpm start

The webapp will be available at http://localhost:8080
