Pardalotus Metabeak

The code that powers the Pardalotus API.

Work in progress, pre-release.

Development

Drop and create DB:

(cd etc; ./reset_db.sh)

Load sample events and handlers:

export DB_URI=postgres://metabeak:metabeak@localhost/metabeak

cargo run -- --load-events samples/events --load-handlers samples/handlers --execute-one

Fetch some metadata assertions from Crossref:

cargo run -- --fetch-crossref

Extract events from metadata assertions:

cargo run -- --extract

Run handler functions for events

cargo run -- --execute

Run API

cargo run -- --api

These flags can all be combined, except --execute, which are --api are blocking and mutually exclusive.

API

To upload a function:

$ curl -F data=@./samples/handlers/hello.js localhost:6464/functions

{
  "status": "created",
  "data": {
    "id": 44,
    "code": "var f = function (arg) {\n  return [\"Hello\", \"World??\", arg];\n};\n",
    "status": "Enabled"
  }
}

• Browse functions at http://localhost:6464/functions
• View function info at http://localhost:6464/functions/44
• View code for a function at http://localhost:6464/functions/44/code.json
• View results http://localhost:6464/functions/44/results
• View debug results http://localhost:6464/functions/44/debug

When a cursor value is returned, pass it with ?cursor= to get the next page. These cursors do not timeout, although the data may.
