Actor-Registry

This small web app starts a server that allows to register urls and returns registered urls.

Usage example

1. Install and start the actor_registry HTTP server:

   virtualenv env
   source env/bin/activate
   
   pip install flask
   
   # optional: install bjoern
   pip install bjoern
   
   python setup.py develop
   
   # start the registry server
   actor_registry -p1234
   

2. POST some data to it. I.e. the batch starter from the smart_grid_actor (http://github.com/dmr/smart-grid-actor) can issue such a request:

   smart_grid_actor_batch_starter --value-range -1 1 2 -n4 --callback-uri http://localhost:1234/
   
   #alternative: manual post
   import urllib2
   lst = ["http://localhost:5000", "http://localhost:5001"]
   resp = urllib2.urlopen(
       urllib2.Request("http://localhost:1234/" data=json.dumps(lst))
   )
   if resp.code == 200:
       print "POST successful."
   

3. GET the data that was submitted:

   curl http://localhost:1234/
   

To get the time the data was submitted along with it:

curl http://localhost:1234/detail/
