A periodic message publishing server.

Dalga is designed to be a job scheduler and provides a specialized way of scheduling jobs.

It consists of a web server and a publisher thread. While web server provides methods for scheduling and cancelling jobs, publisher is responsible for reading the stored jobs from database and publishing them to a RabbitMQ exchange.

It is a big improvement from polling on database and very efficient.

• RabbitMQ
• MySQL

First you need a config file. Please see dalga.ini file from the repository.

To create a table for storing jobs::

$ dalga -c dalga.ini -t

Then run the server::

$ dalga -c dalga.ini

By default it listens on 0.0.0.0:17500. There are two methods of server:

/schedule?routing_key=key&body=body&interval=5 Schedules a new job to run on every 5 seconds.

/cancel?routing_key=key&body=body Cancels previously scheduled job.
