Simple application to accept and store visitors comments. Uses CouchDB 2.0 for storage and also offers webhooks for realtime updates of new comments via RabbitMQ.
Deploy the guestbook from src/web directory - cf push.
It relies on a CloudantNoSQLDB called "guestbook-db" and a RabbitMQ service called "guestbook-messages"; these services need to be created before you deploy. In the CloudantNoSQLDB the databases comments and webhooks also need to be created in advance.
The two workers are also deployable, in the src/worker directory, use cf push commentWorker and cf push notificationWorker respectively (each has their own specific manifest file).
It's vagrant and ansible. Type vagrant up and your machine will be on 192.168.121.8.
Start some services:
- `sudo systemctl start couchdb.service
- `sudo systemctl start requestbin.service
- `sudo systemctl start guestbook-web.service
- `sudo systemctl start guestbook-comment-worker.service
- `sudo systemctl start guestbook-notification-worker.service
- `sudo systemctl start couchdb-haproxy.service
You now have a web interface http://192.168.121.8:8080/ and fauxton http://192.168.121.8:5984/_utils/# and rabbit http://192.168.121.8:15672 and requestbin http://192.168.121.8:8001.
Set up two new tables in CouchDB: comments and webhooks.
CouchDB setup came from here http://couchdb.apache.org/developer-preview/2.0/
There's a file called receive2.php in the webroot of the guestbook frontend, so curl to http://192.168.121.8:8080/receive.php to see an empty array is output. If you send form data, it dumps $_POST, if you send JSON then it decodes that first.
SSH into vagrant and go to /vagrant. There you will find a script that runs the local binary of ngrok with an associated config file that makes the dashboard available on the host machine run-ngrok-locally.sh. Now hit that (optionally from github).
Use receive3.php to write the incoming data to CouchDB as a poor-man's queueing option.
