This is a demo for running a RTLS (Real-time locating system) using docker
For running the application you need to install docker and docker-compose.
Also this application uses the port 8000, 8100 and 6379.
Then run:
docker-compose up -d
You can see the application running on http://localhost:8100
To increase the amount of devices to emulate you need use the --scale command
from docker-compose and specify the amount of devices you wish to run
docker-compose up -d --scale device=10
We are using redis as a pub/sub communication using channels and also storing the history of location for each publisher
This is a script that emulate devices sending their latitude and longitude
This is a program that takes the incomming request of the devices and sends them to redis
This is a program serves as a Websocket server and as a subscription to redis, is listening to all the locations that gets send over the locations channel and broadcast all those locations to the connected service.
We are using Socket.io for the websocket communication.
This is a web page, that connects to the subscriber using websocket and get the information from all the publishers and displays them in real time in a map.
We are using leaflet for the map implementation and socket.io for the ws communication.
