• We've implemented RedisOplog in our framework as well, but it also works with in-memory and with customisable pubsub, not bound to redis.

A full re-implementation of the Meteor's MongoDB oplog tailing. This time, reactivity is controlled by the app, opening a new world into building reactive applications, highly scalable chat apps, games, and added reactivity for non-persistent data.

Incrementally adoptable & works with your current Meteor project.

meteor add cultofcoders:redis-oplog
meteor add disable-oplog

Configure it via Meteor settings:

// settings.json
{
    ...
    "redisOplog": {}
}

// default full configuration
{
  ...
  "redisOplog": {
    "redis": {
      "port": 6379, // Redis port
      "host": "127.0.0.1" // Redis host
    },
    "retryIntervalMs": 10000, // Retries in 10 seconds to reconnect to redis if the connection failed
    "mutationDefaults": {
        "optimistic": true, // Does not do a sync processing on the diffs. But it works by default with client-side mutations.
        "pushToRedis": true // Pushes to redis the changes by default
    },
    "debug": false, // Will show timestamp and activity of redis-oplog.
  }
}

To see what you can configure under "redis": {} take a look here: https://www.npmjs.com/package/redis#options-object-properties

meteor run --settings settings.json

RedisOplog is fully backwards compatible, so there won't be any change in how you use Meteor, unless you want to fine-tune your application for absolute performance.

To make sure it is compatible with other packages which extend the Mongo.Collection methods, make sure you go to .meteor/packages and put cultofcoders:redis-oplog as the first option.

RedisOplog does not work with insecure package, which is used for bootstrapping your app.

If you are interested in viewing how many observers are registered or memory consumption:

meteor shell
import { RedisOplog } from 'meteor/cultofcoders:redis-oplog';

// works only server-side
RedisOplog.stats()

1. Just add RedisOplog, you will already see big performance improvements
2. Fine-tune your reactivity by using custom namespaces and channels
3. Implement your own custom reactivity by using Redis Vent

If you are using Optimistic UI (Latency Compensation) in your application, you should give this a read.

Find out what RedisOplog does behind the scenes

Find out how you can use the advantages of Redis Oplog to make your app very performant.

Find out how you can hook into redis events to customize, when it fails.

Find out how you can customize your reactivity and enable it across multiple languages/microservices with ease.

If you have different workers/services that perform updates to mongo and they exist outside Meteor, you can still trigger reactivity for the Meteor instances with a few lines of code.

If you are looking to scale your business using this package and you need to have your back covered. We are here to help. Feel free to contact us at contact@cultofcoders.com.
