trk
is an event based stats library for node.js that uses redis as a data store.
depending on the project, it can either be a total replacement for map/reduce routines, or, at the very least, a catalystic compliment that allows you to strike a performant balance between real-time data and hierarchical time bucket(y) reporting.
- events are recorded as objects (
.record()
), the only requirement is it has anevent
property - redis counters are modified on the fly into different areas as events come in
- the time granularity supported is daily
- there are 4 types of configurable properties for recording events
bmp
("bitmap") counts unique values occurrences for this keyadd
counts number of occurrences for each value of this keyaddv
("add value") sum of the values for all occurrences of this keytop
similar toadd
but returns the top occurrence values in order and limits the result set to 250
- compound keys are supported by mapping them with a
~
delimiter - an interface to query data over date ranges is supplied
(
.query()
,.query_days()
), see examples - querying does not require a config and can be done from other machines, recording requires a map configuration
the data structure in redis ends up looks something like this
and for compound key combinations, if you choose to use them, like this
- recording an event is ⚡ fast and can be done in a fire-and-forget fashion
- queries are ⚡ fast and can be done in real-time with no need for caching in most cases
- no regression. the raw event is never stored, it is broken down and digested into specific locations based on configuration and then is hair-flipped
using npm
npm i trk --save
