PARTY3

Make sure you know what your third-party services are up to.

Usage

Party3 comes with some services to get you started, here's a list:

• Github (through status.github.com)

Configuration

Configuration is taken care of completely through environment variables:

• PARTY3_SERVICES: A comma-separated list of services (python files in party3/services)

Services/notifiers may have their own environment variables, and will notify you (or raise errors) if their requirements aren't satistified.

Writing Services

Services are just python files sitting in party3/services/. Here's a silly one that will warn you randomly (it would live in party3/services/random.py):

import random
from party3.supplies import notify

def run():
    if random.choice([True, False]):
        notify('Random provider is down.')

Then you would change your PARTY3_SERVICES variable to include it:

 PARTY3_SERVICES=...,random

Then just restart your worker/scheduler processes, and it will Just Work(TM).

Deploying

This project is designed, in a fit of utter irony, to be deployed to Heroku. There's no web role, so to keep it in the free tier, just spin up a scheduler (but only one) and add workers if you need to.

Services

Github

Checks the status of github, notifying if it's down.
