A repository for EventMachine (or anything based on EventMachine) examples and so much more!
Because the event-driven programming model is so different to ‘normal’ programming, good examples are critical to learning how to solve problems the ‘event’ way.
Got a non-trivial example? Please submit it to me for inclusion. It should integrate more than one event-driven subsystem; no more 10 line echo server examples! They are junk and don’t teach much beyond a 30 second overview.
I’d like to see examples of calling:
- 3rd party web services - database (mysql or postgresql) - memcached
The first non-trivial example is a Thin-based thumbnail service which calls S3 asynchronously.
I’m mperham everywhere that matters.
