node-firebase-redis

Small app to demonstrate node, firebase and redis working together. Uses angular.js on the client to display data.

before running the app

1. install Node.js

2. run npm install -g grunt bower

3. install Redis

4. in root folder of the app run npm install, then bower install

how to run?

1. create server/config/local.env.js (use local.env.sample as a template) and add proper firebase uri.

2. run grunt serve to run the main app - this will create few entries in your firebase store and display it in web app

3. by default 'things' are alwayse fetched from firebase, but when you run node server/syncFireBaseToRedis, this will synchronize data to local redis store and following calls will hit redis instead (check console output)
