# Near-Realtime Showcase ##

A showcase for a very simple near-realtime system including visualization and a NoSQL datastore. For a detailed explanation, please have a look at my blog post ["Near-Realtime Analytics w/ MongoDB, Node.js & SmoothieCharts"](https://blog.codecentric.de/en/2014/01/realtime-analytics-mongodb-nodejs-smoothiecharts/).

## Usage ##

Set up the node.js project:

	sudo npm install

Set up a MongoDB replica set with one node running on the default port 27017. 

To start the node server, run

	node main.js

After that, open a web browser at this URL:

	http://localhost:8080/

You won't see any graphs unless you insert some data into MongoDB. To do this, open another shell and type:

	cd mongo

	mongo 02_stream_data.js
