To start the service run python forget-table.py --port=8080 which will start the wrapper. Note that you will need a Redis database running locally on port 6379. Forget Table will write into db 2 by default.
Upon recieving an event, to increment a bin in a distribution call
localhost:8080/incr?key=colours&bin=red
where colours is the name of the distribution and red is the name of the bin you want to increment.
The distribution and bin will be created if they don't already exist.
To query the whole distribution call
localhost:8080/dist?key=colours
This will return a JSON blob with the normalised distribution in it. To query a specific bin of a distribution call
localhost:8080/bin?key=colours&bin=blue
