Woof

Persistent messaging at scale

Introduction

Persistent messaging library which offers various flavors of messaging; optimizing for throughput, latency etc

Currently there is support for paritioned , persistent queues which use Apache Kafka as the backend. Future work will include low-latency messaging.

Sample Usage

Producer

import sys
import os
import logging
from woof.producer import FeedProducer

fp = FeedProducer(server)
msg = "this"
fp.send(topic, " [MY MESSAGE] %s" %(msg))

Consumer

import time, sys, logging, os
from woof.green_consumer import GreenFeedConsumer

fc = GreenFeedConsumer(srv,  group ='TestGroup')
print srv
print "listing to topic %s"%(topic)
fc.add_topic(topic, dummy)
fc.start()

time.sleep(60) // This is just to avoid the process exiting
