So, Node is becoming more and more a requirement for doing modern dev work. I admit I’ve been slow on the uptake on this, but I’m always wanting to learn new things, so I’ve been getting to grips with it recently.

Spoiler alert: it’s really really easy if you’re coming from a bit of a web background and have written a bit of frontend javascript.

So, in part to build up a bit of node code on my github profile, and in part to prove a concept for something I talked about recently when I rewrote the Known event queue processor back end, I wrote a Node version of the event queue processor service.

Usage

Configure your database settings and path to Known in the package.json.

By default, the settings are configured to talk to Known as installed with by the vagrant package.

Then, run the event queue:

node main.js

» Visit the project on Github...

Oxford band practice is an informal group that gives people who want the opportunity to play and improve their ability the opportunity to play with other musicians in a relaxed atmosphere.

After a long break, I am please to announce that the next practice will be on the 31st March from 7pm at Soundworks Studios, Oxford.

This time we will be practising “Another Brick in the Wall (part 2)” by Pink Floyd, so grab a music sheet and learn your part.

More details will be put out on the group’s Facebook page, I hope to see you there!
