Don't waste too much time doing things from the ground up. There are already a few projects that do this sort of thing. Take a look at the nightscout project. https://github.com/nightscout/cgm-remote-monitor

Any free alternatives? Lots of diabetics like myself use the Heroku free plan to run Nightscout.

There are 66K thousand forks of https://github.com/nightscout/cgm-remote-monitor and I suspect the vast majority are using the free heroku version, so I would guess there are going to be quite a few unhappy diabetics!

This error is displayed when trying to deploy this app from github - https://github.com/nightscout/cgm-remote-monitor

I like to add that this becomes even more powerful in combination with nightscout. https://github.com/nightscout/cgm-remote-monitor

Install NightScout on VM: Ubuntu server 20.04 LTS NOTICE: If you do not have your own web page or static IP, you can user no-ip.com to register a web address. PLEASE READ THE INSTRUCTIONS WITH CARE. THERE ARE PLACES IN CONFIGURATION THAT NEED TO BE REPLACED WITH SPECIFIC VALUE. ------------------------------- ------- PREPARING ENV --------- ------------------------------- 1. Download and install mongoDB: sudo apt install mongodb 2. Install Node.js & GIT sudo apt-get install nodejs npm git 3. install nginx sudo apt-get install nginx 4. Install LetsEncrypt sudo apt-get install letsencrypt python3-certbot-nginx ------------------------------- ---- SETUP MONGO DB------------ ------------------------------- 1. enter mongodb: mongo 2. run following commands to create admin user > use admin > db.createUser( { user: "myUserAdmin", pwd: passwordPrompt(), // or cleartext password roles: [ { role: "userAdminAnyDatabase", db: "admin" }, "readWriteAnyDatabase" ] } ) > exit 3. edit mongodb config to enable authentication: sudo nano /etc/mongodb.conf 4. find the auth=true and uncomment it (delete '#'). Save the document 5. restart mongodb service: sudo systemctl restart mongodb ------------------------------- ---- SETUP NIGHTSCOUT --------- ------------------------------- 1. Go to home folder and clone NightScout repository: git clone https://github.com/nightscout/cgm-remote-monitor.git 2. Enter that directory and create a new file. that file will be used as a startup script: cd cgm-remote-monitor vi start.sh 3. Put the following: #!/usr/bin/bash # environment variables export DISPLAY_UNITS="mg/dl" export MONGO_CONNECTION="mongodb://username:password@localhost:27017/Nightscout?authSource=admin" export BASE_URL="https://YOUR.WEBPAGE.URL" export PORT=1234 export API_SECRET="PUT SOME PASSWORD HERE" export PUMP_FIELDS="reservoir battery status" export DEVICESTATUS_ADVANCED=true export ENABLE="careportal iob cob openaps pump bwg rawbg basal" export TIME_FORMAT=24 # start server node server.js 4. Save file. 5. make file executable: chmod a+x start.sh 6. check if it's working: sudo ./start.sh 7. if everything is ok, let's create a service. Create a new file: sudo vi /etc/systemd/system/nightscout.service 8. Paste the following: [Unit] Description=Nightscout Service After=network.target [Service] Type=simple WorkingDirectory=/your/nightscout/path/cgm-remote-monitor ExecStart=/your/nightscout/path/cgm-remote-monitor/start.sh [Install] WantedBy=multi-user.target 9. Save file and reload daemon: sudo systemctl daemon-reload 10. Start the service and enable it sudo systemctl enable nightscout.service sudo systemctl start nightscout.service ------------------------------- ------- SETUP NGINX ----------- ------------------------------- NGINX will be used as a reverse proxy. 1. stop the nginx service: sudo systemctl stop nginx 2. open /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/default file, delete everything in it and paste the following: sudo vi /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/default server { listen 80; server_name YOUR_WEB_ADDRESS_LIKE_cgm.ddns.net; location / { proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:1234; proxy_http_version 1.1; proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade; proxy_set_header Connection 'upgrade'; proxy_set_header Host $host; proxy_cache_bypass $http_upgrade; } } 3. save file and start nginx: sudo systemctl start nginx 4. open the following ports on your router: 80 443 ------------------------------- ----- SETUP CERTIFICATES ------ ------------------------------- 1. run certbot to install certificates on your nginx sudo certbot --nginx -d YOUR_WEB_ADDRESS_LIKE_cgm.ddns.net 2. Enter you email address, Agree to Terms and It will ask you if you want to redirect all traffic from HTTP to HTTPS. Select yes (2). This automatically makes some changes to our NGINX default configuration. you can check new configuration by running: cat /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/default 3. it will also automatically install renewal of certificates. ------------------------- --- setup XDRIP------- ------------------------- In your xDrip+ go to Settings --> Cloud Upload-> NightScout Rest API Set following URL: https://API_SECRET_CODE@YOUR_WEB_PAGE/api/v1 enable synchronization. AND THAT'S IT.

Yes. Darklang was originally in OCaml using js_of_ocaml, and we ported it to F# using Blazor (https://github.com/darklang/dark/tree/main/backend/src/Wasm). It works.

We found that in dotnet 6, the code was much slower, with long startup times and a much bigger download, than in js_of_ocaml. It also had a lot of issues in running in a Webworker, which wasn't the case for js_of_ocaml.

In dotnet 7, the webworker issues are better and AOT is easier, so startup is faster. Download sizes are still bad, and it's still slower than js_of_ocaml.

However, dotnet allows almost any code to run in WASM, which js_of_ocaml had large limitations. This meant a decent chunk of functionality had to be worked around to make separate js vs native targets, which also was a massive pain and took a long time. Dune's virtual targets wasn't ready at the time - I think we were one of the test cases for it.

Why should I use this instead of https://darklang.com/

First it was probably Dark. They made a lot of noise some years ago, but then I never heard of them again (looking at their current website, looks like they moved on to AI now, obviously).

Reminds me of Darklang. Personally, I don't think vendoring cloud services into a language is going to be beneficial. I'm curious how the language deals with vendor updates. Do I have to upgrade the language then? If so, I see a lot conflicts coming from this. Then it comes down to Javascript or HCL, the HCL bit makes me think that the below statement is not as truthy as it is on the surface:

We still don't have all that many users (~100 active), so I'm not sure you'll find an answer here. But we collect that sort of feedback publicly, which might answer your question: https://github.com/darklang/dark/discussions/categories/feed...

I wish I could remember what took me to YCombinator's website on the 10th of October, 2022. That was when I first heard about Wasp and another language called DarkLang. After I learned about Wasp, I was intrigued and curious to know how it works, which led me to join the discord server the next day.

Some languages that try to integrate an HTTP server and a database:

Ur/Web: http://impredicative.com/ur/

Dark (Darklang): https://darklang.com/

There are others in this space I did not assess like Encore, Shuttle, Modal, and Dark. These were not assessed for the sake of time. If you're interested in IfC, I encourage you to take a look at these others.

Oh, finally! I was waiting to build my serverless CRUD webapp in Dark (OCaml + JavaScript and Fsharp?) until they had support for returning negative numbers on a GET request!
