  # Cube Event Logging Server

  Starts a MongoDB server, [cube collector](https://github.com/square/cube/wiki/Collector), and [cube evaluator](https://github.com/square/cube/wiki/Evaluator).

  ### System Requirements
  
  Give panamax-vm at least 2GB of RAM (`export PMX_VM_MEMORY=2048` in `~/.panamax/.env`)

  ### Port Forwarding

  Expose Collector and Evaluator

       $ VBoxManage controlvm panamax-vm natpf1 collector,tcp,,1080,,1080
       $ VBoxManage controlvm panamax-vm natpf1 evaluator,tcp,,1081,,1081


  ### Use Cube

  Send some test events to the collector, e.g.

       $ for i in {1..5000}; do curl --silent -H "Content-Type: application/json" -X POST -d '[{"type":"test"}]' http://localhost:1080/1.0/event/put; done
  
  Visit the evaluator at `http://localhost:1081`.
  
  Log events from your app using a [library](https://github.com/square/cube/wiki/Tools) or [curl](https://github.com/square/cube/wiki/Collector#event_put).
