| Title: | Connecting Stream Mining Components Using Sockets and Web Services |
|---|---|
| Description: | Adds functionality to connect stream mining components from package stream using sockets and Web services. The package can be used create distributed workflows and create plumber-based Web services which can be deployed on most common cloud services. |

Provides a DSC front-end for a clusterer running as a web service. The methods
nclusters(), get_center(), get_weights() are supported. The request is
retried with httr::RETRY() if it fails the first time.

get_points which takes a parameter n and returns n data points in CSV or json
format. The request is

The function writes a plumber task script file and starts the web server to serve the content of the stream using the endpoints
GET /info
POST /update requires the data to be uploaded as a file in csv format (see Examples section).
GET /get_centers with parameter type (see stream::get_centers()).
GET /get_weights with parameter type (see stream::get_weights()).
Supported serializers are csv (default), json, and rds.
APIs generated using plumber can be easily deployed. See: Hosting. By setting a task_file and serve = FALSE a plumber
task script file is generated that can deployment.
a processx::process object created with callr::r_bg() which runs the plumber server
in the background. The process can be stopped with rp$kill() or by killing the process
using the operating system with the appropriate PID. rp$get_result() can
be used to check for errors in the server process (e.g., when it terminates
unexpectedly).

Creates a server socket with socketConnection()
and then uses a stream::write_stream() to write data to a socket connection.
This method does not provide a header for the data.

in the background. The process can be stopped with rp$kill() or by killing the process
using the operating system with the appropriate PID. rp$get_result() can
be used to check for errors in the server process (e.g., when it terminates
unexpectedly).
