Eiffelvis is mainly implemented inside eiffelvis_core, it makes up 90% of the actual code along with eiffelvis_http. This top level binary simply bundles all these libraries into a usable executable with command line options.
Take a peek inside the crates folder if you are curious.
# Clone the repo
git clone "https://github.com/ItJustWorksTM/EiffelVis eiffelvis"
# Traverse into the backend folder
cd eiffelvis/backend
# Run via cargo
cargo run -- --helpNote: Prebuild binaries are available for all 3 major platforms here, or check the latest ci jobs.
Usage is pretty straight forward, there are no config files or settings to modify on your system, Eiffelvis will start a web server and connect to the RabbitMQ broker with respective given adresses.
-a, --address <address> HTTP host address [default: 127.0.0.1]
--chunk-size <chunk-size> Maximum amount of events a single chunk will hold [default: 128]
--max-chunks <max-chunks> Maximum amount of chunks stored in memory [default: 8]
-p, --port <port> HTTP host port [default: 3001]
-q, --rmq-queue <rmq-queue> AMQP queue [default: hello]
-r, --rmq-uri <rmq-uri> AMQP URI [default: amqp://localhost:5672/%2f]
-t, --timeout <timeout> AMQP reconnect timeout [default: 3001]
--tls-cert <tls-cert> TLS certificate pem file
--tls-key <tls-key> TLS private key pem file
Note: --chunk-size and --max-chunks determine how many events will be held in memory at a maximum, if at any moment the number is exceeded the oldest chunk-size amount of events will get erased to make place for the new events.
Note 2: chunk size and max chunks are required to be a power of 2, will panic otherwise.
