Steam Graph Analysis

This is a project that I threw together during the weekend to play around with gremlin graph database. Currently this project scrapes the steam API for friends and their friends which can be used to generate a graph. This information is stored locally in a gremlin server and is then sent to the client via a web socket.

This project is in the VERY early stages of development and is far from finished. If you are lucky, you will find it live at http://jrtechs.student.rit.edu/friendsOfFriends.html. It is still being actively developed and does not have permanent hosting so there is a %60 chance at any time that you will be able to access it.

Bugs

  • Tends to crash w/o telling user if you provide an invalid steam id

TODO

  • Include a steam name to steam id lookup
  • Dockerize this entire environment
  • Connect the gremlin/janus server to a HBase server for persistent storage
  • Make the graphs look better -- possibly switch from sigma.js to d3
  • Get the java web socket to work with ssh -- currently does not work with wss
  • Make more graphs to provide more insights
    • Friends with friends -- shows which of your friends are friends with each other
    • Most common friends friends -- will show you people you may know
    • Graph of a larger chunk of the steam community
    • ...
  • Write more documentation on how the system as a whole works.
  • Write blog post on what I learned during this project.
