DataSync

Usage

Prerequisites

Copy config.json.example and fill it in with your actual data. You will need:

SQS

two SQS queue's running on your AWS account with access Id's and keys. These are used for the storage and connection queues.

MySQL

You need MySQL running on your machine, you must create a database that has the proper schema that the application expects. Here are the two tables described, you should be able to reproduce these tables from the dumb:

mysql> describe rooms;
+-------+-------------+------+-----+---------+----------------+
| Field | Type        | Null | Key | Default | Extra          |
+-------+-------------+------+-----+---------+----------------+
| id    | int(11)     | NO   | PRI | NULL    | auto_increment |
| name  | varchar(55) | YES  | UNI | NULL    |                |
+-------+-------------+------+-----+---------+----------------+
2 rows in set (0.00 sec)

mysql> describe adds;
+---------+---------------+------+-----+---------+----------------+
| Field   | Type          | Null | Key | Default | Extra          |
+---------+---------------+------+-----+---------+----------------+
| id      | int(11)       | NO   | PRI | NULL    | auto_increment |
| r_id    | int(11)       | NO   |     | NULL    |                |
| payload | varchar(1024) | YES  |     | NULL    |                |
+---------+---------------+------+-----+---------+----------------+
3 rows in set (0.00 sec)

The commands I ran to create the tables look something like this

create table rooms(
  id int(11) not null primary key auto increment,
  name varchar(55) not null unique
);

create table adds(
  id int(11) not null primary key auto increment,
  r_id int(11) not null,
  payload varchar(1024)
);

NodeJS

I used Node.js v0.10.28 to develop this, but anything around this version should work.

Running

After cloning the repo run npm install to get all dependencies. Run node connection.js to run the connection server, and node storage.js to run the storage server. Note that these are two different processes.

TODO

We need a better looking demo app (index.html)
This all needs to get deployed to AWS
Report for this iteration
Powerpoint for this iteration
The client sdk needs to be compiled into a single script (socket.io, lodash, and datasync should all be the same file).
