About

The sri-audit-broadcast module gives you a possibility to create an audit trail of all your sri resources. It also has a build-in broadcast services that sends out broadcasts when a new version has been created.

Usage

Here you can find a example server.js file:

//Load all required dependencies.
var express = require('express');
var app = express();
var pg = require('pg');
var http = require('http');
var srv = new http.Server(app);
var auditBroadcast = require('sri-audit-broadcast');

//Sri4node authentication functions.
var authentication = require('vsko-authentication')(app);
authentication.init();

//Functions in order to do security lookup
var resourceToSecurityComponent = function (resource) {
	return '/security/components/samenscholing-api';
};
var meToHref = function (me) {
	return '/persons/' + me.uuid;
};

//The configuration and initalisation
auditBroadcast.init({
	app: app,
	server: srv,
	express: express,
	pg: pg,
	databaseUrl: prosess.env.DATABASE_URL,
	authenticate: authentication.isAuthenticated,
	identify: authentication.getMe,
	security: {
			enabled: true,
			host: 'http://localhost:8080/api',
			component: resourceToSecurityComponent,
			currentPersonHref: meToHref,
			username: 'myBasicAuthUsername',
			password: 'myBasicAuthPassword',
			headers: {}
	}
});

//Start the http server
srv.listen(process.env.PORT || 3000, function(){
	console.log('Node app is running at http://localhost:' + (process.env.PORT || 3000));
});
