[annotator-dev] NodeJS impl of Annotator Store backend

Mon Sep 22 02:54:11 UTC 2014

Hey all,
Thanks so much for this wonderful project.

For those of you who are interested in JS end-to-end, I've been
implementing the Annotator Store backend in NodeJS:
https://github.com/willy-b/node-annotator-store

(I'm sure someone else has done this, but I couldn't find it :-) )

In this public repo I am following the behavior of the reference python
backend pretty closely.

This is still under development but the basic functionality (CRUD + search)
is there.

See passing tests here:
https://github.com/willy-b/node-annotator-store/blob/master/test/PASSING_TESTS.md
.
Authorization via JSON web token is unfinished, see status here:
https://github.com/willy-b/node-annotator-store/blob/master/AUTH.md .

Feel free to file bugs, requests, etc, OR to fork and add tests,
documentation, and bug fixes.

All the best,
Willy B

P.S. My motivation:
Some friends and myself are building a web service that leverages all of
Annotator's wonderful capabilities. Since we're using end-to-end JS for
rest of project and since we want to extend the annotation search APIs (to
add annotation similarity, clustering, etc) it felt natural to have a
NodeJS implementation.
