Liftweb and netty for web development.key
- 1. In the Brain of Franz Bettag Director of R&D and Network Operations at SkillsMatter, London, 2012 Liftweb and Netty for Web Development
- 2. Franz Bettag 27 years old Nuremberg, Germany Liftweb Committer Director of R&D and Network Operations at wasted.io Ltd. Who am I?
- 3. Code Scala projects for Customers (Liftweb and Netty) Network Administration (UNIX/BSD, BGP/OSPF Routing, ...) Research new products for wasted.io Ltd. based on Scala What I do?
- 4. BSD over everything (i mean it) JVM over Erlang for concurrency (the syntax, yikes!) PostgreSQL, Cassandra and Redis fan (awesome stuff) PHP and MySQL will die! (I am the Exterminator) My bias?
- 5. 15 years of coding (9 years commercial) 14 years on FreeBSD and NetBSD (i acquired my taste early) 7 years on PostgreSQL (my taste got even better) 4 years on Scala, Liftweb and Akka (excellent!) 1 year on Netty (now it’s on!) My experience?
- 6. Liftweb Templates Comet Menu Liftweb Framework
- 7. Netty Long-Polling WebSockets paired with Akka Netty IO Framework
- 8. Aren’t they just easy to read? Liftweb Templates
- 10. Drop dead easy! Liftweb Comet
- 11. Liftweb Comet
- 12. Liftweb Comet
- 13. Liftweb Comet
- 14. You don’t believe me? Allright, i’ll show you then!
- 15. One of my worst nightmares! Liftweb Menu
- 16. Liftweb Menu
- 17. I’m singing in the rain! Netty Long-Polling
- 18. Fast (1k connects per core per second without issues) Efficient (10k concurrent connections easily) Fun (extending ChannelGroups made our heads spin) Netty Long-Polling
- 20. Uh ah, it’s that easy? Netty WebSockets
- 21. Netty WebSockets
- 22. Netty WebSockets
- 23. Not the other way around! Netty with Akka
- 24. Channels provide The current state (open, closed, ...) Configuration parameters (e.g. receive-buffer-size) ChannelPipeline of that particular Channel I/O operations (read, write, connect and bind) User-defined Attributes (Netty4 is extra nice!) Netty with Akka
- 25. ctx.channel (or .getChannel on Netty3) ctx.attr(OurNettyAttrs.connected).set(new Date) OurSingleton.ourAkkaActor ! ctx.channel that’s it! Netty with Akka
- 26. Sounds too good to be true? Fine, i’ll code again!
- 27. Follow us: @wastedio on Twitter! Are you wasting IO?
- 28. @fbettag on Twitter code at http://github.com/fbettag blogging at http://uberblo.gs Get home safely Thanks for listening!
Editor's Notes

- Since i am, what they call a “devop”, my skills reach far beyond coding, but we’ll get to that on the next slide.\n
- CFEngine, Anycast routing\n\n
- BSD since i was 13\n\nI really like the reliable stuff\n

- The class attribute tells Lift that the actual template starts with the element with the id &#x201C;main&#x201D;.\n\nA class attribute with the prefix &#x201C;lift:&#x201D; invokes a snippet that surrounds this<div> with the default chrome for the site and inserts the <div> at the "content" marker in the template.\n\nInvoke the ShowCode snippet which shows the source for the designated page and generates a link to the GitHub repository for this project.\n\n\n
- \n
- lift has the listener/manager pattern as traits for comet builtin\n
- \n
- updateListeners will update all listeners with the content of createUpdate() -> msgs vector\n
- That&#x2019;s allright, you don&#x2019;t have to believe me, i&#x2019;ll show you.\n
- Now to one of the downsides of Liftweb, the Menu\n
- Ugly problems\n
- Even when it&#x2019;s under heavy load, netty keeps it cool!\n
- Ugly problems if you use Linux (epoll bug), but everybody who uses Linux might have bigger issues than that anyways, so *smirk*\n
- explain options\nexplain \nat the end: AkkaServerHandler\n
- \n
- And that&#x2019;s the easiest it gets compared to Liftweb\n\ni know, it&#x2019;s java, just imagine less braces and semicolons ;)\n
- this is the hard approach, if you really want to unify HTTP and WebSockets, then you need to handshake yourself.\n\nfirst, you dispatch the request in the messageReceived, then in the handleHttpRequest method you handshake if needed. (it will reconnect as websocket)\n\n
- Since Netty is part of Akka, it made sense to me to try to combine them vice versa.\n
- Netty3 only allows one user-defined Attr, case-class.\nNetty4 is dynamic, Perfect if you want to store information on them and stack them on a Vector\n
- since channels are thread-safe\n
- That&#x2019;s allright, you don&#x2019;t have to believe me, i&#x2019;ll show you.\n
