Node.js driver for Event Store

nodejs-EventStore

Event Store is "an awesome, rock-solid, super-fast persistence engine for event-sourced applications."

It has HTTP and TCP client interfaces -- this project implements the TCP interface in Node.js in an async fashion.

Project status

Very early stage. Only a subset of the TCP API is implemented. But you can create streams of events and read them back, so the most important functionality is in!

Usage

Installing:

npm install git://github.com/kenpratt/nodejs-EventStore.git

Connecting:

var EventStore = require("nodejs-EventStore");
var es = EventStore.connect(host, port);

Creating an event stream:

es.createStream(streamName, cb);

Creating an event (callback will contain event number for created event):

es.createEvent(streamName, eventType, data, cb);

Reading & subscribing to an event stream (callback will be called for each existing event in the stream, and for each event added in the future):

es.readAndSubscribeToStream(streamName, cb);

Dependencies

• Node.js
• A running Event Store instance

Development dependencies

• Protocol Buffers (protobuf)
• Development Node.js packages: npm install --dev
