neotyk / athens-backend

Self-hosted backend with persistence and real-time collaboration. Plan to move code into https://github.com/athensresearch/athens

athens-sync

Steps to test out Real time collaboration

1. Click on the Deploy to Heroku
2. Follow the on screen instructions to make an app(give it a name) and wait until the setup is finished(~3 mins)
3. In the athens app click on Database/Library icon on the top right and navigate to Remote DB tab
4. Add remote address as your-app-name.herokuapp.com and token as x (single letter). For eg. if your app name on heroku is test-app then the remote address is test-app.herokuapp.com
5. Share address and token with your team and start simultaneously working on the same graph!

Important Note

This is only a test deployment and all changes will be lost once heroku dyno reloads(which happens once a day atleast)
