eventsender

This is a simple event sender that publishes JSON-serialisable messages to an AMQP server exchange. It can also be optionally installed as a Django application.

Installation and configuration

The following settings should be supplied either as environment variables or via Django settings module:

EVENT_QUEUE_URL = os.environ.get('EVENT_QUEUE_URL')
EVENT_QUEUE_EXCHANGE = os.environ.get('EVENT_QUEUE_EXCHANGE')
EVENT_QUEUE_ROUTING_KEY = os.environ.get('EVENT_QUEUE_ROUTING_KEY', '')

EVENT_QUEUE_ROUTING_KEY is optional and can be omitted (it will be assumed blank by default).

Usage

Example:

from eventsender import send_event
send_event({'type': 'user.subscribed', 'username': 'john_doe'})

Or

EVENT_QUEUE_EXCHANGE=some_exchange EVENT_QUEUE_URL=amqp://guest:guest@localhost:5672/host python -c \
     "import eventsender; eventsender.send_event({'type': 'event_type', 'somedata': {'key': 'value'}})"
