m7011e-dynamic-web-systems

A web system to simulate and control a small scale electricity market. Has front-ends for prosumers and market managers. Created for the course M7011E, Design of Dynamic Web Systems at Lulea University of Technology.

Requirements

  • NodeJS 10.16+
  • MongoDB 4.2+
  • (Optional) npm 6.9+

Getting started

Running tests

To run the tests and generate code coverage with Mocha and Instanbul, inside /app run

npm test

Setup

Place a file called '.env' in the /app directory with your MongoDB information as well as your session secret to use. Example:

DB_HOST=<host address>
DB_USER=<db username>
DB_PASS=<db password>
SESSION_SECRET=<express_session secret>

In the same directory, install all necessary dependencies:

npm install

Usage

To startup the server use the follwing command inside /app

npm start

This will start the database, API and server.

Usage systemd

To start the app as a service on an OS that uses systemd, add the required information to the template m7011e.service, you might need to change the path where npm and the project is located.

# in m7011e.service
...
Environment=DB_HOST=<path to mongodb>
Enivronment=DB_USER=<user>
Environment=DB_PASS=<pass>
Environment=SESSION_SECRET=<session secret>
Environtment=NODE_ENV=production
...

After that place the file at

/etc/systemd/system/m7011e.service

Then reload the daemon and start the service

sudo systemctl daemon-reload
sudo systemctl start m7011e.service

Known issues

If too much data is collected during a long period of time, queries will be quite slow. This is due to the collections in the database not being indexed. When querying for certain documents MongoDB will need to check all documents in the collection. To fix this add the following indexes in mongo:

$ mongo

---------

use <db name>

db.prosumers.createIndex({ name: 1 })
db.prosumers.createIndex({ timestamp: -1 })

db.markets.createIndex({ name: 1 })
db.markets.createIndex({ timestamp: -1 })

db.weathers.createIndex({ name: 1 })
db.weathers.createIndex({ timestamp: -1 })
