Floop is an integration tool which can be used to provide event-based lifecycle data for any process, without requiring any code changes which would couple your application to its consumer. It currently supports integration with STDOUT, HTTP and NATS endpoints, with near-term plans to add additional protocols.
Integration actions can be configured for the following lifecycle events:
- Begin
- Progress
- Completed
- Failed
Floop is currently configured with a single configuration file. The following example will post JSON to
a single endpoint when the find process starts and when it completes.
floop reference_id=1234 -exec find . -name filename
meta:
- reference_id
handlers:
begin:
- type: http
uri: "http://my-status-service/${Meta.REFERENCE_ID}"
options:
method: "POST"
body: |
{
"status": "started",
}
completed:
- type: http
uri: "http://my-status-service/${Meta.REFERENCE_ID}"
options:
method: "POST"
body: |
{
"status": "completed",
}
Additional configuration examples can be found under the test-data directory.
The purpose of this repository is to continue to evolve floop, adding additional integration protocols and configuration options. All development is done publicly on GitHub, and we look forward to working with a community of both users and developers to make floop even more powerful and intuitive.
