Repository for powerviews REST API and engine, there are two executables used, they are in the same repository due to a large code sharing (easier to keep in sync).

It duties include bookeeping of accounts, queries and postgresql users. It generates the list of work that the engine will do, this don't has access to LKF api nor to LKF mongodb server

Polls postgresql database often to get list of work to do and executes it

Default configuration file is on config/config.default.json, you must create a copy of this file replacing the placeholders with valid values and set it up to the proper path config/config.json; config/config.json file is ignored in repository:

cp config/config.default.json config/config.json
vim config/config.json

npm install

To start the powerviews REST API server, you need first to setup postgresql.

In case you need to create a postgresql cluster in localhost by hand you can make:

initdb -U postgres -D pg -E UTF-8
postgres -D pg

To create postgresql database, database user and populate empty schema; there's a helper for that:

(cd pg_utils && sh ./setup_pg.sh)

node ./utils/sync_db.js

Then start api server:

npm start

To run the powerviews engine, you need to configure some environment variables (fill them with real values) and run:

cd engine && env LKFPOWERVIEWSENGINEMONGOURL="mongodb://user:pass@host:port/admin" LKFPOWERVIEWSENGINECOUCHURL="https://admin:[email protected]" npm start
