Chameleon

Chameleon is a simple service for sampling reputation from Stack Overflow. It takes a list of users from a MongoDB collection, collects those users' reputation scores, and saves them back into a MongoDB collection.

Prerequisites

1. Leiningen
2. MongoDB, running on your local machine.

Usage

1. Build the Jar:

    $ lein uberjar
   

2. Create a MongoDB database called chameleon.

3. In the chameleon database, create a collection called users.

4. Populate the users collection with users whose reputation you would like to record, in the following format:

    {_id: <stack overflow user id>}
   

5. Run the Jar file:

    $ java -jar target/uberjar/chameleon-standalone.jar
   

You will probably want to run the program as a cron task, to sample reputation periodically.
