How to make Sails.js app listen to events of ethereum blokchain to perform CRUD on persistence layer












0















I have a smart contract deployed on Ethereum blockchain and it emits some event with necessary data.



I have a sails.js application which needs to listen to this event.



Roughly, the javascript code looks like -






var event = contract.myEvent();
event.watch((err, res) => {
console.log(res); // event response
// API call to DB for persistence
});





My question is where should this code sit in sails.js application as sails.js follows MVC, is it a good idea to use sails.js ?



Suggestions about design pattern are appreciated.

          This code should be excuted as a Service at the application start time.



          for example you can create a file named EventsService.js :



          let event = contract.myEvent();

          exports.start = function () {

          event.watch((err, res) => {
          console.log(res); // event response
          // API call to DB for persistence
          });
          }


          and then you can start the service like this: (from the app.js file)



          const eventService = require('path/to/EventService.js');

          eventService.start();
