Profiles

Overview


Profiles are Javascript files that contain the cluster configuration and settings to connect to the core database of SOAJS.

Every service/daemon need this information so that SOAJS loads the Registry Information and thus be able to deploy it.

A profile is supplied via an environment variable before running the node . command

    1. Client configuration for Single Instance Mongo DB Server
    2. Client configuration for Replica Set Mongo DB Server
  3. Full List of Supported Options for Mongo Client v2.2



Code Sample


The profile file contains the registry information that tells SOAJS the location of the core database server to use. This file gives SOAJS the information to load the core configuration and provide it to the service.

Profile Sample
module.exports = {
    "name": "core_provision",
    "prefix": "",
    "servers": [
        {
            "host": "127.0.0.1",
            "port": 27017
        }
    ],
    "credentials": null,
    "streaming": {
	    "batchSize" : 10000
	},
	"URLParam": {
    	"maxPoolSize": 2,
	    "bufferMaxEntries": 0
	}
};

The above file, tells SOAJS that the location of core_provision where the core information resides is at "127.0.0.1" via port "27017" and that no credentials are needed to connect to it.

The remaining properties and details of URLParam are needed by MongoDB Client Driver to establish a connection to the database. This information is explained and documented on Mongodb Website.

If you are familiar with MongoDB driver configuration, you can update the content of this file to support multiple servers, add credentials and restrict the database connection to specific accounts, provide support for replicaSet...etc



Examples




Single Instance

Client Configuration for Single Instance MongoDB Server
'use strict';

module.exports = {
    "name": "core_provision",

        }
    ],
    "credentials": null,
    "streaming": {
        "batchSize" : 10000,
        "colName":{
            "batchSize" : 10000
        }
    },
    "URLParam": {
        "maxPoolSize": 2,
        "bufferMaxEntries": 0
    }
};



Replica Set

Client Configuration for Replica Set MongoDB Server

module.exports = {
   "name": "core_provision",
   "prefix": "",
   "servers": [
      {
         "host": "dataProxy-01",
         "port": 27017
      },
      {
         "host": "dataProxy-02",

         "port": 27017
      }
   ],
   "credentials": null,
   "streaming": {
      "batchSize" : 10000,
      "colName":{
         "batchSize" : 10000
      }
   },
   "URLParam": {

   }
};
