I've implemented a possible microservice - gpg signature checking. code at lp:~lifeless/+junk/gpgverify (http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~lifeless/+junk/gpgverify/files)
It -should- play nice on lucid with the regular LP download cache (thats the one I used with it). This offers an extremely narrow interface - post a file, get a bson result back. Its almost shameful to admit it, but it was such a shallow thing I haven't got any tests [yet] :) I used web.py which is a microframework available in lucid; it made doing this in a very low key way totally fun. I needed to do one little bit of fugly for the test fake service - I needed to fix a limitation in its support for dynamic port allocation. But the test fake service exists. sloccount reports: 86 gpgverify python=86 for the whole service. The only thing missing from it at this point are a timeout on requests (to deal with gpg going awol) and oops integration. So as a candidate, this looks like a pretty interesting stack to me. -Rob _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~launchpad-dev Post to : launchpad-dev@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~launchpad-dev More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
