Airport Mesh

Airport Mesh is a sample project for Service Fabric Mesh. It visualizes features such as scaling out services, attaching volumes and intelligent routing using a game-like UI built using phaser.io.

Prerequisites

This sample project requires an Azure Storage account with the following set up:

1. An Azure Storage file share.
2. An Azure Storage queue named 'passportcheckrequests'.
3. An Azure Storage blob container named 'passportcheckresults'.

Running locally

Set the following environment variables:

• AIRPORTMESH_STORAGE_ACCOUNT_NAME = <name of your Azure Storage account>
• AIRPORTMESH_STORAGE_ACCOUNT_KEY = <key of your Azure Storage account>

Start the back-end services by running Docker Compose Up:

docker-compose -f "src/docker-compose.yml" up -d --build

The front-end is designed to be run locally. Start it in development mode to connect to the local back-end services (from the /src folder):

npm run start:dev

The front-end will be available at http://localhost:8080.

Deploying to Service Fabric Mesh

You can use the ARM templates in the /deployment folder to deploy the back-end services to Service Fabric Mesh. Example:

az mesh deployment create --template-file ./deployment/service-fabric-mesh.json --parameters "{\"location\": {\"value\": \"westeurope\"}, \"fileShareName\": {\"value\": \"YOUR_FILE_SHARE_NAME\"}, \"storageAccountName\": {\"value\": \"YOUR_STORAGE_ACCOUNT_NAME\"}, \"storageAccountKey\": {\"value\": \"YOUR_STORAGE_ACCOUNT_KEY\"}}"

Set the following environment variable locally on your machine to point the front-end to the Mesh application:

• AIRPORTMESH_MESH_IP = <IP adres of the Mesh application>

The front-end is designed to be run locally. Start it in production mode to connect to the deployed back-end services on Service Fabric Mesh:

npm start

Sort-O-Tron

The Sort-O-Tron(TM) routes luggage to one of two conveyor belts. By default, it will route all luggage to belt 0. You can change this behaviour by adding a sort-instructions.json file:

{
    "KL": 0,
    "OW": 1,
    "OA": 0
}

In the example above, all luggage for airlines KL and OA (the blue and green suitcases respectively) will be routed to belt 0. Luggage for airline OW (the red suitcases) will be routed to belt 1.

If you're running locally, place the file in a ~/SortOTron/ folder. If you're running on Service Fabric Mesh, upload the file to the file share in Azure Storage.

How to use the front-end

• left and right arrows: scroll
• space: pause
• 1: send a package to conveyor belt 0
• 2: send a package to conveyor belt 1
• 9: send a suspicious package to conveyor belt 0
• 0: send a suspicious package to conveyor belt 1
