eeventd

An OTP application for bridging a redis queue to server sent events.

Build

$ rebar3 compile

Config

The minimal configuration required is an ini-style config file, containig the sections [security] and [eventd], providing a shared secret for authenticating web clients and the eventd configuration.

The app config is usually shared with the event producing application, e.g. a django project.

Example:

[security]
secret_key = 2342foobar

[eventd]
enabled = true
redis_server = localhost:6379
redis_db = 0

redis_queue = eventd_events

default_stream = notifications

stream_url = http://localhost:2323/eventd/events
listen = localhost:2323

Running

In development mode using rebar, pass the configuration file via the APP_CONFIG environment variable:

APP_CONFIG=/path/to/app/etc/app.conf rebar3 auto
