# Sivy · [](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@indec/sivy) [](https://travis-ci.org/indec-it/sivy) [](https://github.com/indec-it/sivy/blob/master/LICENSE)
The survey synchronization server for MongoDB.
## How to use
### Setup
Install it:
```bash
npm install @indec/sivy
```
> Sivy requires [email protected]
And add a script to your `package.json` like this:
```json
{
"scripts": {
"start": "sivy",
"dev": "sivy dev"
}
}
```
The `sivy dev` command enables the hot code reloading. No server restart is needed.
### Handlers
The file-system is the main API. Every `.js` file becomes a handler that gets automatically processed on every sync, and the container folder is when that handler is executed. The handlers support promise.
| Folder | Input parameters |
|------------------|------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| `dumpSurveys` | (surveyDump: `SurveyDump`, surveys: `Array`) |
| `receiveSurveys` | (surveys: `Array`, syncLog: `SyncLog`) |
| `preSaveSurvey` | (surveyAddress: `SurveyAddress`, survey: `object`, syncLog: `SyncLog`) |
| `getSurveys` | (surveyAddresses: `Array`, syncLog: `SyncLog`) |
| `preSaveSyncLog` | (syncLog: `SyncLog`) |
To log how many surveys we receive on a POST we can create a file into: `receiveSurveys/helloWorld.js` as the following:
```js
module.exports = surveys => console.log(`Received surveys: ${surveys.length}`);
```
### Model
By default the SurveyAddress has the following Mongoose's schema:
```js
{
dwellings: [{type: Mixed}],
user: {type: ObjectId, required: true},
address: {type: ObjectId, ref: 'Address', required: true},
surveyAddressState: {type: Number},
state: {type: Number},
valid: {type: Number}
}
```
You can strongly type the Dwelling's schema defining a `model/dwelling.js` as the following:
```js
module.exports = {
order: {type: Number},
dwellingCharacteristics: {
...
}
};
```
Also, you can add additional attributes to the SurveyAddress's schema defining a `model/surveyAddress.js` as the following:
```js
module.exports = {
visits: [{
order: {type: Number, required: true},
date: {type: Date, required: true},
comments: {type:String}
}]
};
```
### Environment variables
| Required | Variable | Description | Defaults to |
|------------|----------------------|-----------------------------------------|-----------------------------|
| | `NODE_ENV` | Defines the running environment | `development` |
| | `PORT` | Port where sivy will listen | `3000` |
| | `MONGODB_URI` | Connection string to the MongoDB server | `mongodb://localhost:27017` |
| | `RECEIVE_ONLY` | True if Sivy works on receive_only mode | `false` |
| :bangbang: | `AUTH_CLIENT_SECRET` | The secret to validate the JWT. | |
| | `SURVEYS_COLLECTION` | The surveys collection name on MongoDB | `surveyAddresses` |
| | `SURVEYS_HISTORY` | Keeps a history of survey changes | `true` |
| | `SURVEYS_DUMP` | Dumps every request to a collection | `false` |
| | `MORGAN_FORMAT` | Log format used by Morgan package | `dev` on `NODE_ENV=development`, `combined` on `NODE_ENV=production` |
| | `DEBUG` | Set to `sivy` to turn on debug logging. | |
### Authentication
Sivy expects an Authorization header on the HTTP request as the following:
```
Authorization: Bearer
```
The JWT will be verified using the AUTH_CLIENT_SECRET defined in the environment variables and the [verify method](https://github.com/auth0/node-jsonwebtoken#jwtverifytoken-secretorpublickey-options-callback) in the [jsonwebtoken](https://www.npmjs.com/package/jsonwebtoken) package.
## Debug
To turn on the Sivy `debug mode` just set the environment variable `DEBUG=sivy`.
## Production deployment
To deploy just run the `sivy` command:
```bash
sivy
```
For example, to deploy with `now` a package.json like follows is recommended:
```json
{
"name": "my-sync",
"dependencies": {
"@indec/sivy": "latest"
},
"scripts": {
"start": "sivy"
}
}
```
Note: It’s your responsibility to set `NODE_ENV=production` manually!
