What’s a NoSQL Database

It’s a lot different from a relation database. It’s not a set of tables that we’re going to join data across. It’s not a table where each row is restricted by a schema.

I’m going to show how we can use a single DynamoDB table that we’re going use to index an object collection. We’re going to put all data items into one table. One table, because a NoSQL database is schema-less, meaning that it doesn’t require an enforced schema for the items. The only enforced constraint on a NoSQL database is that of a unique primary key.

Primary key (Item Identifier)

Dependency injection is a programming technique that makes a module independent of its dependencies. This enables you to replace dependencies without changing the module that uses them.

To illustrate Dependency Injection, we’ll build an API with the following endpoints

1. GET /post: Gets all posts
2. POST /post: Creates a post

and structure the API in the following way:

1. Datasource — persistence implementation using third party modules.
2. Repository — decouple application from persistence: has a datasource dependency.
3. UseCase — business logic: has a repository dependency.
4. Presentation — routes: has a use-case dependency.

1. PostDataSource

Accounting has always been a mystery to me ever since school. The very term accounting give me the shivers. Why though? Is it because of the unknown?, the strange terms and phrases? And yet we all need to know a little accounting. Why? Accounting is the language of business and we all are do business in one way or another. And like with all languages we need to learn it to communicate. This blog will aim to provide the basics of monitoring the performance of your business, in particular, the balance sheet and income statement…

When people use the term “NoSQL database”, they typically use it to refer to any non-relational database. Some say the term “NoSQL” stands for “non SQL” while others say it stands for “not only SQL.” Either way, most agree that NoSQL databases are databases that store data in a format other than relational tables.

A common misconception is that NoSQL databases or non-relational databases don’t store relationship data well. NoSQL databases can store relationship data — they just store it differently than relational databases do. …

We’ll build a counter app to show hot module reloading while maintaining state using webpack-dev-server or express to update the modules

React Hot Loader with Web Dev Server

Create Project

proj/
├─ dist/
├─ .babelrc
├─ package.json
├─ webpack.config.js
└─ src/
    └─ assets/
        └─ index.html

Initialise Project Folder

npm init -y

Install Development Dependencies

npm i -D \
webpack-dev-server \
webpack \
webpack-cli \ 
babel-loader \ 
@babel/core \
@babel/preset-env \
@babel/preset-react \
html-webpack-plugin 

Include .babelrc file to configure babel compilation for this project

{
    "presets": [
        "@babel/preset-env",
        "@babel/preset-react"
    ]
}

Install Application Dependencies

npm i -S react react-dom react-hot-loader

Create src/assets/index.html

Create the react application with react-hot-loader

Configure webpack through a webpack.config.js file

Add a “dev” and “build” script to the package.json

"scripts": {
    "dev": "webpack-dev-server"…

WebSocket is a computer communications protocol, providing full-duplex communication channels over a single TCP connection. The WebSocket protocol enables interaction between a web browser (or other client application) and a web server with lower overhead than half-duplex alternatives such as HTTP polling, facilitating real-time data transfer from and to the server.

1. Create WSS Server (ws server)
2. Connect Flutter application to Socket server
3. Run the server on your favourite Server (create a wss server)

1. Create a WSS Server

I’ve created a WebSocket server to run on port 5556 server with the following code.

Let’s run the server locally:

$> node server.js
