Anyone out there writing fossology agents?
I'm going to write some new docs, a how-to on writing agents in C and
Python. So if you are writing or considering writing agents, let me
know if you want to provide some input/feedback/contributions.
Currently, we have:
http://fossology.org/how_to_create_an_agent
and
http://fossology.org/wc_agent
but I find these pretty lacking.
I plan to explain the basics of what an agent should do, show how to
write an agent that runs both outside and inside fossology, how to use
our library of common functions and stand-alone utilities. I'll be
covering error reporting, heartbeat, database updates, and talking a
little about performance issues.
If there is anything specific you want to make sure I (we?) cover, let
me know. The new pages will be linked from http://fossology.org/developer_documentation
.
