Realm-JS Interprocess Example
Example of interprocess support using Realm and Node.js
The example makes use of Winston, a
logging library, and includes winston-realm.js which defines a custom transport
utilizing Realm for storage. The main file, index.js is an
Express app handling HTTP requests. The
app listens on port 3000 and responds with "Hello World!" at the base path /
and logs at info "Handled Hello World" to Winston. At any other path it
returns a 404 error and logs an error message to Winston with URL in question.
Since the log messages are being stored in a Realm (winston.realm), we can
listen for changes on another process. The listener.js is a small example of
this. When running, this listens to the winston.realm for changes and writes
to the console the latest error level log message.
To test:
npm installnode .to run the Express app- In another process:
node listener.js - Go to
http://localhost:3000/whateverto see error message across processes
