Replace ElasticSearch with lightweight datastore #76

Open jhmartin opened 8 years ago

jhmartin commented 8 years ago

ElasticSearch is a very heavy method to run on a Pi just to store a few configuration values. This issue is to replace it with Apache Derby or another lightweight datastore.

Bounty: https://www.bountysource.com/issues/34471155-replace-elasticsearch-with-embedded-derby

armzilla commented 8 years ago

i agree. Some can argue that derby is heavyweight as well. Others have proposed something as simple as storing the configuration as json on disk. What do you think?

jhmartin commented 8 years ago

On-disk JSON would be fine too, I've updated the issue to indicate such. The added benefit of 'plain' json is it makes backup of the configuration trivial.

DigitalRoadi3s commented 8 years ago

Might want to consider SQLite as well.

Agreed.. Anything to reduce system load would be great. I'm running this on a Pi3, and it takes 13 MINUTES from start to ports open and ready to work.

sorry all, my day yob is taking up most if not all of my time. If someone has time to do this i can accept the pull, else please be patient!

Hey, no worries Arm... I know I certainly understand life getting in the way.

pvdh commented 7 years ago

For the record: startup on my raspberry 2 took about 250s, so I tried to replace ElasticSearch mit h2 and hibernate. Got me down to 240s. You can find my attempt at pvdh/amazon-echo-ha-bridge. Doesn't seem to be worth the effort. Perhaps better results can be achieved by accessing a standalone database server, instead of an embedded one, perhaps ditching hibernate might be effective as well. However, I don't expect people running the bridge on a raspberry to have a database sever nearby, so I don't think it's worth exploring.

jhmartin commented 7 years ago

@pvdh 10s doesn't sound worth that effort, but the configuration is simple enough that ditching the database entirely for a simple json file should be sufficient.
