Suggest.io is conceptual solution to simply create rich eye-candy cross-screen content and simply attach it to physical locations via:
- NFC tags
- Wi-Fi zones
- Bluetooth radio-beacons (EddyStone technology)
- Geographical regions on the map
- Internal nodes hierarchy
- In tags advertising
- etc.
Suggest.io is an CMS-like + Web + Hybrid Mobile App solution over ElasticSearch storage, used to create design-rich screen-fit single-page Web, composed into unified nodes graphs and contexted into radio-beacon signals, geolocation regions, nodes graph, etc. Content placements can be monetized using build-in billing system.
Server, client and shared code written on Scala. Client-side UI developed using scalajs-react over React.js, and translated into JavaScript using Scala.js compiler. Server-side code based on Play! framework.
Some small parts contains non-scala code due to historical reasons.
- More content placement dimensions. Current usual Internet structured into sites, and pages mapped to URLs. Content may be also transparently attached to geographical regions, radio-beacon signals, NFC-tags, geo/node-tags, etc. Abstract out from virtual and physical dimensions.
- Create a simple representation into the internet for end-users. Currently, sites+domains+certificates+programmers+html+designers+etc+etc have too high cost for small business.
- Extended navigation dimensions: usual site page-to-page navigation may be extended via extending current content view with new content.
- Page can contain apps, app can show pages. Single-page view can become app. Abstract over browsers and apps.
- Many screens -- one content. Abstract over mobiles, tables and PCs screens. Be responsible.
- Become distributed. Current implementation designed with horizontal cluster scaling in mind. In future become more federated/distributed using blockchains/git/activitypub/etc as underlying storage.
There are three main parts of Suggest.io:
- Showcase - Suggest.io start page (JS WebApp & Hybrid mobile app).
- Private cabinet: registered user area. Create, edit and advertise nodes/content/etc.
- System: restricted technical area for super-users and developers.
Also, there are shared client-server Scala-code, placed into src/shared directory. Such code includes common models and utilities, protocols, etc.
- GraalVM jdk 11-15
- sbt 1.3+
- ElasticSearch 7 - Distibuted primary storage.
- PostgreSQL (Used for billing)
- SeaWeedFS (Distributed storage for pictures and other files)
- ImageMagick
- openjdk-8 for building cordova android app.
TODO Pre-build images/binaries not-yet ready, so see Development.
- sbt 1.3+
- scala 2.13+
- Node.js (for prepare assets and compile client-side code)
- Install needed system packages:
pikaur -Sy jdk11-graalvm-bin imagemagick sbt elasticsearch-xpack postgresql seaweedfs
- Ensure elasticsearch, postgresql, seaweedfs master and volumes started.
- Go to main server sub-directory:
cd src1/server/www
- Install postgresql schema:
cat evolutions/default/schema.sql | sudo -U postgres psql
- Create server config:
cp conf/application.conf.example conf/application.conf
- Edit
application.conf
file according to your needs. Type your admin email intosuperusers.emails
. - Start the server:
sbt
project www
run
Commandrun
used for dev-mode.runProd
for production,stage
to compile production tarball intoserver/www/target/universal/
directory.
- See console log for created superusers with email typed at step 4.
- Open browser, go to login page. Wait for compilation finishes. Type login/password from step 6.
- Superuser also have access to special /sys/ pages.
