jams-server v1.0.7

JAMS Ingestion Server

This is a small Node.js server that exposes a CR (as in CRUD) RESTful API for generic JAMS data, backed by MongoDB. It could (and should) be extended to provide read and update features specific to the JAMS format so that it can be deployed as a generic server for a wide variety of musicological data storage, however at the moment it's streamlined for my specific research into velocity aware trajectorial playlisting.

Usage

Install the server with npm install -g jams-server. Set the environmental variables "JAMS_MONGO_URI" to point at your mongodb instance, and "JAMS_PORT" to specify the port your jams server should run on. Run jams-server to spin up a service.
