Sentinel

A WebSocket-compatible kill & fleet tracker for EVE Online, built on Sails.js. Part of the magic behind the GLOSS project.

Features

  • Backed by PostgreSQL
  • Live reporting from zKillboard's WebSocket service
  • Identifies fleet patterns based on recorded kills
  • Resolves characters, corporations and alliances via ESI
  • Resolves shiptypes and systems via the EVE Online SDE
  • Sophisticated job queue scheduling via Kue

Environment

  • Install Node >= 8
  • Install Yarn
  • Install and configure a database (PostgreSQL preferred)
  • Install and configure Redis

The app will refuse to run without a valid root-level .env - see the example file.

Boot

$ cd sentinel
$ yarn
$ node app.js

And now you're listening for kills and saving them to the DB in real time.

Provided it's not firewalled, a frontend to the job queue will be available at http://<BASE_URL>:6574.

If you're going to leave this thing running permanently, you should run it with NODE_ENV=production (i.e. npm start).
