Mario the Telemetrist

Fork of justinmeister's mesmerising, high fidelity Super Mario Bros made with Pygame. Original repo here: https://github.com/justinmeister/Mario-Level-1.

Added in code to send telemetry info to Azure Application Insights and Event Hubs.

DEPENDENCIES

Install these with pip install package_name, e.g. pip install pygame.

pip install -r requirements.txt should also work, but i didn't test that.

pygame >= 1.9.1release
blessings >= 1.6
applicationinsights >= 0.10.0
azure-servicebus >= 0.21.0

Telemetry setup

1. Edit data/telemetry/eventhub.py. Fixup these vars:

namespace = 'breakingnews'
eventhubname = 'marioevents'
sasname = 'send'

sasname is the name of a Shared Access Signature with Send permissions.

2. Add Application Insights instrumentation key and Event Hub SAS key into:

data/telemetry/key_ai
data/telemetry/key_eh

E.g.:

key_ai:

7e0aa72b-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXXXXXX668

key_eh:

uKXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXncCtCIGBvrw=

Launch game with:

$ ./mario_level_1.py

or

$ python ./mario_level_1.py
