FrankenPaxos

Getting Started

You can build and run all of frankenpaxos's code using sbt. All the code in this repository can be compiled to bytecode that you can run on the JVM and can also be compiled to Javascript that you can run in the browser. As a result, the project is split into two subprojects: frankenpaxosJVM for the code that compiles to bytecode and frankenpaxosJS for the code that compiles to Javascript. frankenpaxos is a parent project of the two.

$ sbt
sbt:frankenpaxos> frankenpaxosJVM/compile  # Build the JVM code.
sbt:frankenpaxos> frankenpaxosJS/compile   # Build the Javascript code.
sbt:frankenpaxos> frankenpaxos/compile     # Build all the code.
sbt:frankenpaxos> frankenpaxosJVM/test     # Run the tests.
sbt:frankenpaxos> frankenpaxosJS/fastOptJs # Compile to Javascript.
sbt:frankenpaxos> frankenpaxosJVM/assembly # Assemble a JAR.

$ # Run the JAR.
$ java -cp jvm/target/scala-2.12/frankenpaxos-assembly-0.1.0-SNAPSHOT.jar <main>

Core code is in the shared directory, JVM-specific code is in the jvm/ directory, and Javascript-specific code is in the js/ directory.

Running in the Browser

The code in this repository is compiled to Javascript using Scala.js. With a bit of HTML and Javascript, we can visualize the execution of a distributed system in the browser. For example, visit https://mwhittaker.github.io/frankenpaxos/js/src/main/js/echo/echo.html for a visualization of a simple echo protocol.

To run the visualization locally, run sbt frankenpaxosJS/fastOptJs and then run an HTTP server on port 8000 in the root frankenpaxos directory (e.g., by running python -m SimpleHTTPServer). Open http://localhost:8000/js/src/main/js/echo/echo.html. The source code for this example can be found in the following files:

Using Eclim

Eclim is a vim plugin that lets you use all the features and functionality of Eclipse from within vim. To use eclim with this project, first install eclim and all necessary dependencies. Then, do the following:

  1. Run eclipse from within sbt. This will create a .project file and a .classpath file in the jvm/ directory.

  2. Copy jvm/.project and jvm/.classpath into the root directory.

  3. Remove the linkedResources section in .project. It is not needed.

  4. Remove the kind="src" class path entries from the top of .classpath. Replace them with the following:

    <classpathentry kind="src" path="shared/src/main/scala"/>
    <classpathentry kind="src" path="shared/src/test/scala"/>
    <classpathentry kind="src" path="js/src/main/scala"/>
    <classpathentry kind="src" path="jvm/src/main/scala"/>
    <classpathentry kind="src" path="jvm/target/scala-2.12/src_managed/main"/>
    
  5. Open up vim and run :ProjectCreate . -n scala or :ProjectRefresh if the project already exists.
