Introducing MongoBase

The Web-Application Framework built with PHP, MongoDB and jQuery

Transcript

1. WEB-APP FRAMEWORK ( sponsored by )
2. NOT JUST ANOTHER FRAMEWORK
3. Web-Apps Vs Blogs CMS • Need for rapid prototyping • Need for instant scalability • Need to obtain sign-ups • Need distributed media • Automated communication • Extend reach through APIs • Only use what you need • Difficult to do with schemas • Not Native to SQL DBs • Unintuitive to admin focus • FS difficult & costly to scale • Difficult to FULLY re-brand • Complex if using schemas • Do you need a kitchen sink
4. LET’S TALK ABOUT RAPID PROTOTYPING WITH MONGOBASE
5. Create DB + Collection + Insert Data (even doing this natively with pure MongoDB and PHP is simple) // MongoDB PHP Class $m = new Mongo(); // Select Database & Collection (Table) $db = $m->freesquare; $collection = $db->places; // Add Document (Add a Record) $obj = array( "title" => "KL MongoDB User-Group", "loc" => array( "lng" => 101.67646, "lat" => 3.127896 ) ) $results = $collection->insert($obj);
6. Create App + Collection + Insert or Update Data // Configure MongoBase and Set Cascading File Inclusion $init = array(‘id’:‘3square’,'modules‘:array(‘db’,’auth’)); $mb = new mongobase($init); // Add or Edit a Translatable Document via Dynamic User ID $updated_user_location = array( “col” => ‘user’, “id” => $mb->modules[‘auth’]->get_id();, “obj” => array( "title" => $mb->__("KL MongoDB User-Group“), "loc" => array( "lng" => 101.67646, "lat" => 3.127896 ) ) ) $results = $mb->modules[‘db’]->mbsert($updated_user_location);
7. Rapid Development from Front to Back • Integrated Font-Awesome Icons • Integrated SHIMs, Polyfills & Responsive Hooks • Integrated iOS Enhancments & HTML5 Forms • Drag & Drop Image Uploading & Aviary Filters • Auto Inclusion of JS and CSS Files from Slugs • Auto AJAX Fetching for Gravatars & Data DIVs • Filterable JSON-Powered Pivot Tables • Flexible CSS Frameworks & Re-Sets
8. ONE FINAL THING (ON RAPID PROTOTYPING) THERE IS NO SPOON!!!
9. LET’S TALK ABOUT INSTANT SCALABILITY WITH MONGOBASE
10. Instant Scalability with MongoBase • Uses mongoDB as its ONLY data-store (with out-of-the-box backup & load-balancing) • Eliminates the need for traditional caching • Unique Timestamped IDs rather than auto-inc • Incredibly fast!
11. SOME SAY 6,000 TIMES FASTER!!! http://labs.laulima.com/how-to-import-7-million-locations-from-geonames-to-mysql-then-into-mong
12. Instant Scalability with MongoBase • Ability to create templates in HTML or PHP (can parse pages in browser with Handlebars.js) • Intelligent cascading auto-inclusion of core files • AJAX Content Fetching & Processing • All media stored and served from mongoDB (also means it is backed-up and distributed)
13. Not to Mention Distributed Caching!
14. LET’S TALK ABOUT INVITE-ONLY SIGN-UP SCHEMAS USED BY MONGOBASE
15. The Invite-Only Sign-Up Schema
16. Why Invite-Only …? • With web-apps, we want to communicate with our users and potential customers… • We need to gather email addresses, which are easier to get when only asking for that • We can then convert email applicants into users later using automated intelligence • FYI – This is not fixed, only set-up by default
17. THE PSYCHOLOGY OF EXCLUSIVITY HELPS DEVELOP LOYALTY
18. LET’S TALK ABOUT DISTRIBUTED MEDIA WITHIN MONGOBASE
19. Distributed Media with GridFS
20. Other Added Benefits of GridFS • GridFS Obtains Original Media Meta but also allows you to add custom fields • This allows for integrated view counts or embedded location coordinates, etc • It also means we can search for media in the same way we search for objects! • Can also be used to cache fully rendered pages and (or) individual AJAX-fetched snippets…
21. YOUR OWN MEDIA MAIN-FRAME
22. LET’S TALK ABOUT BUSINESS INTELLIGENCE AT THE CORE OF MONGOBASE
23. Business Intelligence at Core • Automated mailing-list generation from user types with dynamic field filtering • Staged auto-confirmation, verification, activation and processing email messages • Integrated support via email and accessible by integrated web-access
24. Business Intelligence at Core • Extensible platform with secure cross-domain (server-specific) 2-Way API access • Administration pages can be easily extended to handle any & all applications • Have all of your company applications integrated through a single system
25. MAKE INFORMED DECISIONS
26. LET’S TALK ABOUT OUR CURRENT PROGRESS 06/JUNE/2012
27. Current MongoBase Modules (all working but at different stages of semi-perfection) • ADMIN (FULLY CUSTOMISABLE) • API (INSERT, UPDATE, FIND & DELETE) • AUTH (SHA256 HASHED TOKENS) • DB (BUILT-IN ORM FOR MONGODB) • EMAIL (SEND AND VIEW IMAP OR POP3) • FORMS (PRETTY HTML5 FORMS) • GRIDFS (STORE AND SERVE IMAGES) • ROUTES (DEFINE APP LOGIC) • URLS (FULLY CONTROL URI REQUESTS) • MEDIA • WYSIWYG • GEO • LAYOUTS ………………………… 90% …………………………… 95% …………………………… 95% …………………………… 95% ………………………………. 100% ………………………… 90% ………………………… 90% ……………………. 80% …………………………… 95% …. 10% .. 5% ………… 40% ……… 35% NOT YET WORKING - NEED CONVERTING
