README currently in work

This app works with play 2.1-SNAPSHOT. At the moment, you must checkout at this commit : a61a48e35a4c6c0e0d28966c84bcbbd0d4d4014a.

PlayStory is an app that receive logs over HTTP, persist them in MongoDB and display them in a Web page in real time.

This application use the last features of Play! Framework :

• ReactiveMongo driver https://github.com/zenexity/ReactiveMongo
• Play-ReactiveMongo https://github.com/zenexity/Play-ReactiveMongo
• New Json API
• Stream SSE/Comet (Enumerator/Enumeratee/Iteratee with Akka Actor)

PlayStory is a single-web page.
All the javascript code rely on procrastination.js library (https://github.com/jto/procrastination).
Here how I organize the javascript.

My application is composed of two pages :

• The home page.
• The dashboard page.

The idea is to split each page into several independant views. We usually do a lot to manage a view :

• We make requests to the server.
• We listen some events from DOM, server (requests/streams) and javascript router.
• We update the DOM.

My javascript Router have some interesting features:

 Router.when('uri/:param', action1.then(action2))

 Router.when('uri/:param').chain(action1, action2)

 Router.when('uri/:param', action1.and(action2))

 Router.when('uri/:param').par(action1, action2)

Router.when('uri/:param').lazy(function() {
     return action1.then(action2);
});

 Router.fromStart()
       .when('uri/:param')
       .chain(action1, action2)

 Router.from('page')
       .when('uri/:param')
       .chain(action1, action2)

 Router.go('page', true)

 Router.forward()

 Router.back()

Binding to server events.

 server.onReceive('uri/:param')
       .await(actions)
       .subscribe();

 server.onReceiveFromTemplate('model')
       .await(actions)
       .subscribe();

Binding to DOM events:

 When(event).await(actions).subscribe();

'Bucket' is a just one place where you can put some models and collections.

Bucket.collections('name').get()

Bucket.collections('name').first()

Bucket.collections('name').last()

Bucket.collections('name').size()

Bucket.collections('name').put(model)

Bucket.collections('name').set(collection)

Bucket.collections('name').reset()

Bucket.collections('name').destroy()

Bucket.model('name').get()

Bucket.model('name').set(model)
