Node RaLF Server

This is an experimental implementation of a node.js server for the Energistics RLF protocol, for streaming real-time data from oil field facilities. It uses websockets for transport and Apache Avro for serialization.

Prerequisites

  • Install Node from nodejs.org - v0.10 min required.
  • Clone the node folder from mercurial. Say, into c:\sf\rlfprototype-code-0\src\Node

Installation

c:\>mkdir ralfdemo

c:\>cd ralfdemo

c:\ralfdemo>npm install d:\sf\rlfprototype-code-0\src\Node

This step may fail, if you do not have a compiler configured and on your path. Not to worry, the code still runs, just not quite as efficiently.
