Coronium Cloud Platform

Hey everyone, just reposting a small update @develephant posted on the Google Groups for Coronium. Not everyone here might be on there as well so apologies to those of you who have seen this already

Hello,
 

There is now a section for demo applications and a few troubleshooting tips for Coronium.  If you have a demo app to share, let me know and I can put it on the wiki.

Some nifty demo apps in there including a very simple but complete MySQL CRUD app which I put together quickly to demonstrate the power of Coronium. Special credits go to Atanas for his editField widget which was extensively used in the making of this demo. Check it out. 

EDIT : Here’s a short write up with some screenshots for this demo app in case you don’t have the time to run it yourself. You can see a small portion of what is possible using Coronium by taking a quick look at the this thread. Hope this helps.

Been using coronium for a couple of days, have to say its fantastic One problem I have though is from lua cloud code how can I write to the log ? Documentation implies I can use print commands but these don’t output to log when I tried. Also is there a way to run the code on the server and see the output ? Otherwise developing and testing server code is a bit tricky. I saw Chris do it in one of demo videos but can’t work out how he did it Thanks in advance Regards Richard

Hi Richard,

Let me double check that the print method is working properly, it should spit out to the log.  One other helpful item is the coronium.showStatus = true on the client side, not sure if you’re already using this, but it spits out helpful data in the console.

I’ll look at refining the cloud code testing.  Thanks for the feedback, it’s really appreciated.

Cheers.

If you could look that would be great. I am working on a complex multiple user business app and coronium looks like it could save me huge amounts of development time on the backend, have already parked the development of the existing sql server visual studio back end while I evaluate using coronium instead. At the moment I am writing log type information to MySQL tables on the server and the monitoring them from another device again using coronium.

You already have a lua and a pop log, could you create a code log, to separate out the logs to make it easier to look at ? Keep up the good work Richard

[quote name=“jen.looper” post=“243846” timestamp=“1398386152”]My best congratulations, Chris! I would give you another Cat’s Pajamas Award but I already did! So I’ll have to create a new category just for you, maybe the Bees Knees Award :smiley:   Awesome, as always,   best Jen[/quote]  

I agree with you both, I think it’s the " mutts nuts" from the work I have done with it so far.

print works for me but I agree if the print output went to a different log that would make it much easier to to work with. Great idea. 

@richard17 - “mutts nuts” - thanks for the morning laugh.  :lol:

I think a separate log would be a good idea as well.  Thanks for the suggestion.  I’ll start working that in.

Cheers.

Hello,

 

 

Coronium Public Beta 1.5 is out in the wild.  Take a look at some of the new additions in this short overview.  Install it on Amazon EC2 in under 3 minutes.

More info at http://coronium.io

 

Cheers.

How do I update from version BETA 1.01 to BETA 1.5? 

Hi catocaceres,

Unfortunately with Beta 1.5 you have to do a fresh install and move your files over.  If you have data, you will need to export it.  Because it was a large structural change, it would be really difficult to do an automated update.  It shouldn’t happen again from here on out for Beta 1.x

AWS: http://coronium.io/coronium-cloud-server-set-up/

DigitalOcean: http://coronium.io/installing-coronium-cloud-on-digitalocean/

You’ll also need to make sure you have the latest client: https://bitbucket.org/develephant/mod_coronium

Cheers.

This is excellent, it has made a major difference to developing with it.

In two evenings I have almost got full multi user database synchronisation working both ways between local sqllite and server mysql. 

Having worked on such projects for months in the past, coronium is a revelation.

Keep up the good work.

Hi Richard17,

Thanks for taking the time to try Coronium and leaving feedback. Lots more functionality to come.

Cheers.

What’s going on with coronium?

Hello,

Currently integrating the new push service and working on deployment.  Should have a new update in about a week.

Cheers.

awesome chris!
 

Chris’s rate of progress and responsiveness is unbelievable. Coronium is enabling me to do things I could only dream of in the past. Watch this space and you will continue to be amazed. Better yet, join the beta program and experience it first hand! 

PS. Chris forgot to mention above the awesome leaderboard module he added to Coronium in Beta 1.6. Yes, cross platform leaderboard with no strings attached. It is real! Just mentioning this in case you missed the Coronium Geek recording from last week.

@ksan Thanks for the reminder.  You can find the leaderboard module here https://bitbucket.org/develephant/coronium-leaderboard-module

It also doubles as an example of how one could make external modules for Coronium.  The server-side module was built in about 50 lines of code (the source can be found on your server in “lua/_modules” once installed).

Cheers.

Unbelivable. I’ve tried multiple solutions, but coronium even at alpha phase was simply the best (and the easiest) solution for my problems. And the pace ur going forward is simply remarkable. Once again, GJ Chris :slight_smile:
