Building Spatial Back-ends with Node.js and MongoDB

AGENDA

➔ Learn a bit about Node.js and Express

➔ Learn some MongoDB basics

➔ Build a location aware Job search application

➔ Go live with a Node.js MongoDB powered app in ~ 45 mins

Write an application and host it on internet

GOAL

CODE DU JOUR

https://github.com/shekhargulati/localjobs-nodejs

● You know JavaScript● You know Git● You like to write code rather than

managing servers.

ASSUMPTIONS

There are no stupid questions only stupid answers. So ask questions

ASK QUESTIONS

Node.js provides a purely event-driven , non-blocking infrastructure to script

highly concurrent programs.

NODE.JS

NODE.JS EXPLAINED

Node.js goal is to provide an easy way to build scalable network applications.

Some ex. Web servers , TCP servers, Streaming server , Realtime apps, etc.

NODE.JS GOAL

Node.js is Server Side JavaScript.

● It provides runtime environment● It provides a library

NODE.JS IS

● Non Blocking I/O● Based on Google's Chrome V8 engine● 40k + modules● Active community● Multi platform – Windows , Mac , and Linux● Use single language for both client and

server.● JavaScript is language of Web.

WHY NODE.JS

● Go to http://nodejs.org/ and click install.● Install the downloaded package.

INSTALLING NODE.JS

● Hello World● HTTP Server

NODE.JS IN ACTION

● Routing support● Template support● Error handling● Etc.

EXPRESS TO RESCUE

Web Application Framework for Node

● Install Express– npm install express -g

● Create a new Express application– express --sessions --ejs hello-world

MONGODB

18

Open Source NoSQL document datastore– JSON style documents

Schema-less– Each document is heterogeneous, and may have completely

unique structure compared to other documents

Fast and horizontally scalable Rich query language Rich documents Easy to get running Geospatial indexing

WHAT IS MONGODB

Database → Database

Table → Collection

Row → Document

Index → Index

STEP 4 : MONGODB TERMINOLOGY

DEMO TIME

21

What is it for? Find all the MongoDB jobs near me – Proximity Queries Find all the MongoDB jobs within Bangalore – Bounded

Queries Find all the MongoDB job at this location – Exact Queries

● Supports only two dimensional indexes. You can only have one geospatial index per collection. By default, 2d geospatial indexes assume longitude

and latitude have boundaries of -180 inclusive and 180 non-inclusive (i.e. [-180, 180))

GEOSPATIAL INDEXING BASICS

22

1) Put your coordinates into an array

{ loc : [ 50 , 30 ] } //SUGGESTED OPTION

{ loc : { x : 50 , y : 30 } }

{ loc : { foo : 50 , y : 30 } }

1) { loc : { lon : 40.739037, lat: 73.992964 } }

2) Make a 2d index

db.places.ensureIndex( { loc : "2d" } )

3) If you use latitude and longitude as your coordinate system, always store longitude first. MongoDB’s 2d spherical index operators only recognize [ longitude, latitude] ordering.

HOW TO MAKE IT WORK

APP DEVELOPMENT

LocalJobs : Location Aware Job Search App

Functionalities or User stories or Features

1. As an Employer , I should be able to register my company

2. As an Employer, I should be able to post jobs

3. As a Job seeker , I should be able to register myself with application

4. As a Job seeker , I should be able to search jobs near to my current location.

5. As a Job seeker , I should be able to apply a job

6. Etc...

APP -- USER STORIES

Prioritize the functionalities or user stories or features

– As an Employer, I should be able to post jobs

– As a Job seeker , I should be able to search jobs near to my current location.

– As a Job seeker , I should be able to see all the jobs

PRIORITIZE

$ git clone https://github.com/shekhargulati/localjobs-nodejs.git
