WORK IN PROGRESS

The Mongodb mirror of the paratii smartcontract data. This is mainly used to make it easier to index and search the video data and do all sorts of aggregations that would be too hard to do on the blockchain data.

This requires MongoDb to work. head over to the download section and install the proper release for your system.

$ git clone https://github.com/Paratii-Video/paratii-db.git
$ cd paratii-db
$ npm install

# for development (needs Parity node running)
# this command will fail if you don't have previously ran yarn run build:dev on paratii-portal
$ npm run dev

# for production against Paratii Chain
$ npm run start

# Note: You can also use yarn. I'm not gonna judge :)

First start the mongoDB service:

$ sudo service mongod start

The tests expect a locally running parity node, so start that:

$ npm run parity

And now run the tests in another terminal:

$ npm run test

REST API are available on db.paratii.video. You can use API also using paratii-lib and paratii.core features, check the docs at:

https://github.com/Paratii-Video/paratii-lib/blob/dev/docs/paratii-core.md

Get all videos collection:

GET /api/v1/videos

Search in videos collections:

keyword=<keyword>

available indexed (and full text searchable) fields:

• video
• description
• owner
• uploader.name
• uplaoder.address
• tags

Mixed search:

keyword=<keyword>&owner=<address>

Get single video document:

GET /api/v1/videos/<id>

Get related videos collection (TBD):

GET /api/v1/videos/<id>/related

Search in users collection:

GET /api/v1/users

available indexed (and full text searchable) fields:

• name
• email

Mixed search (quiet useless at the moment):

keyword=<keyword>&email=<email>

Get user document:

GET /api/v1/users/<id>

Search in transactions collection:

GET /api/v1/transactions

available indexed (and full text searchable) fields:

• from
• to
• description

Mixed search:

keyword=<keyword>&description=<description>

Get transaction document:

GET /api/v1/transactions/<id>

Currently obSERVER is configure to listen to:

module.videoObserver = require('./video')(paratii)
module.userObserver = require('./user')(paratii)
module.transactionObserver = require('./transaction')(paratii)

Transaction:

{
_id: String,
blockNumber: Number,
event: String,
description: String,
from: String,
logIndex: Number,
nonce: Number,
source: String,
to: String,
value: Number
}

Video:

{
_id: String,
title: {type: String},
description: {type: String},
price: Number, // FIXME this should be bignumber.js
src: String,
mimetype: String,
owner: {type: String},
stats: {
likes: Number,
dislikes: Number,
likers: Array,
dislikers: Array
},
uploader: {
name: {type: String},
address: {type: String}
},
tags: {type: [String]}
}

User:

{
_id: {type: String},
name: {type: String},
email: {type: String},
ipfsData: String
}

Transaction:

{from: 'text', to: 'text', description: 'text'}

Video:

{title: 'text', description: 'text', owner: 'text', 'uploader.name': 'text', 'uploader.address': 'text', tags: 'text'}

User:

{name: 'text', email: 'text'}

Currently our API have limited cors access. Want to develop a project that use Paratii API? Write us on our beloved telegram channel =)

If you get an error like MongoError: exception: Unrecognized pipeline stage name: '$sample', you may have a Mongo version < 3.2, and you need to upgrade.

Check the version with mongo --version, and follow the instructions here https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/release-notes/3.2-upgrade/
