Building

In order to build you need go installed.

You will need go1.7.1 if you are deploying to kubernetes.

To build choices library and all the included binaries run the following in a terminal.

go get -u github.com/Nordstrom/choices/...

If you are only interested in the library you can run the following in a terminal.

go get -u github.com/Nordstrom/choices

Running locally

There are two main components of choices. The storage server (bolt-store or mongo-store) and the frontend experiment server (elwin). You should first start the storage server. You will need a local version of running, bolt-store will be the easiest to setup. It only requires a local file similar to sqlite.

cd bolt-store && go build
./bolt-store

You can skip to starting the experiment server if you are using the bolt-store.

If you want to use mongo refer to this guide Mongo Installation. If you are using docker you can run the following docker cmd.

docker run -d --name mongo-storage -p 27017:27017 mongo

With mongo running you can start the storage server.

# from the choice/cmd/mongo-store directory run
./mongo-store

This creates the storage service on port 8080

Now that the storage server is up you can start the experiment server (elwin).

# from the choices/cmd/elwin directory run
JSON_ADDRESS=":8181" GRPC_ADDRESS=":8282" MONGO_ADDRESS="localhost:8080" MONGO_DATABASE="elwin" MONGO_COLLECTION="staging" ./elwin

The MONGO_ADDRESS MONGO_DATABASE and MONGO_COLLECTION are an artifact of previously only supporting mongo. These may change in an upcoming version.

The experiment store loads some example data into the staging environment. You should be able to open a web browser and navigate to localhost:8181?label=test&userid=1234 and see some results. You can also run the following command from a terminal if you have curl installed.

The bolt-store does not load sample data.

curl "localhost:8181?label=test&userid=1234"
