FeedHenry Sync Server Demo

Note: This is not intended to be used as a template in RHMAP 3.x or 4.x

A demo server for use with a sync client. Keycloak can also be configured for auth.

It uses Feedhenry Sync as underlying synchronization server.

Run the server

To run the server, ensure that a local MongoDB and Redis instance are available. These can be created using ./scripts/start_services.sh. The server will run on port 3000 by default, to change this include the SERVER_PORT variable.

SERVER_PORT=8001 node app.js

Enable Keycloak

To enable Keycloak you need to populate the keycloak.json file in the base of this repo. The existing file can be used with the sample realm and clients created by keycloak/sample-realm.json and users created by sample-users.json

To run a Keycloak container run:

docker run -e KEYCLOAK_USER=admin -e KEYCLOAK_PASSWORD=admin -p 8080:8080 jboss/keycloak

Once the server is running a Realm and Users must be created. Go to the Keycloak admin console http://127.0.0.1:8080 and login.

Hover over the current Realm Master and click Create Realm. Select to import from a file and use keycloak/example-realm.json in this repo.

While in the new myShoppingList Realm. Go to the import tab and select to import from file, select keycloak/example-users.json in this repo.

Enable all import options, e.g. Import groups and select Import.

Once Keycloak is configured, run the server with SYNC_ENABLE_AUTH defined.

SERVER_PORT=8001 SYNC_ENABLE_AUTH=true node app.js

Running locally

  1. See Feedhenry Sync documentation for required MongoDB and Redis setup.
  2. npm install
  3. npm start

To change the port edit the value in package.json.

Running on Openshift 3

  1. Use the fh-sync-server-DEVELOPMENT.yaml template to create an Openshift project with running sync service.

Verification sync server is up and running

  1. "OK" response should be received upon GET request (default URL is http://localhost:3000/). If running on Openshift use the route created in your project.
  2. Navigate to /dashboard.html and /sys/info/stats to see some statistics about synchronization.

Cordova client template

The Feedhenry Cordova Sync Template can be used to create client application talking to the sync server.
