Redis Server

• For this project to function, a linux server with Redis instance listen on the port 6379 is necessary.
• The Redis server (version 6.2.1) can be retrieved from https://redis.io/download .

Redis Modules

• Geospatial: it is a build-in module.
• Time Series: it is not a build-in module, please install it manually. Visit https://github.com/RedisTimeSeries/RedisTimeSeries for more information.

Third Party Modules (being integrated into this project)

• Hiredis ( C client library for Redis Server ): https://github.com/redis/hiredis
• Rapid JSON ( JSON parser and generator for C++ ): https://github.com/Tencent/rapidjson/

Building

Required Environment

• Windows 10 operating system
• Visual Studio 2019 (recommended) or Visual Studio Code
• CMake

Instruction

• Select "Clone a repository" through Visual Studio 2019 (with link https://github.com/LeyenQian/StreamProcessing.git)
• Two startup items have been configured, you may selected either server.exe or client.exe for compiling.
• The first time compiling on server.exe will fail due to lost of library files. Copy hiredis/hiredisd.dll, hiredis/hiredisd.lib, config.json to out\build\x64-Debug for compiling and running.
• client.exe also need the client\config.json for running, please copy it to out\build\x64-Debug\client.
• server.exe receives data from client.exe, and send it the Redis Server. It also generate event_report.txt and geospatial_report.txt per second.
• client.exe generates random event and geospatial data and send it to server.exe.
