nodeflake v1.0.0

Nodeflake

Nodeflake is a distributed computing framework for Node. It focuses on providing a powerful library of functions to describe and seamlessly distribute computation across multiple networked computers.

Start a node

The recommended (and currently only supported) way to start a cluster is on the same network. Equivalent would be to perform this on multiple machines within the same cloud VPC.

npm install -g nodeflake
flake start

There are several command line parameters that can adjust the computational of a node.

flake help

Commands:
	start				Start this node
	stop				Stop this node
	restart				Restart this node
	clear				Clear the computation queue of this node

	-port [number]		Port to listen on
	-state [file]		File where persistent node state is stored (default ~/.flake)
	-dashboard			Start the web dashboard on this flake
