Half-baked Projects with Full Potential
=======================================

Fedora Infrastructure Bus Scraper
---------------------------------

Install python-zmq ::

    # yum -y install python-zmq

A client program ::

    #!/usr/bin/env python
    ''' 
    fedbus_client.py

    Fedora Infrastructure Messaging Bus consumer 
    without using fedmsg.

    Install python-zmq to use this.

    Developed upon Ralph Bean's example code at 
    http://threebean.org/blog/zeromq-and-fedmsg-diy/
    '''
    import json
    import pprint
    import zmq


    def listen_and_print():
    # You can listen to stg at "tcp://stg.fedoraproject.org:9940"
    endpoint = "tcp://hub.fedoraproject.org:9940"
    # Listen to all messages being published
    topic = 'org.fedoraproject.'

    ctx = zmq.Context()
    s = ctx.socket(zmq.SUB)
    s.connect(endpoint)

    s.setsockopt(zmq.SUBSCRIBE, topic)

    poller = zmq.Poller()
    poller.register(s, zmq.POLLIN)

    while True:
        evts = poller.poll()  # This blocks until a message arrives
    	topic, msg = s.recv_multipart()
	print topic, pprint.pformat(json.loads(msg))

    if __name__ == "__main__":
        listen_and_print()

When you run this program, you may have to wait, but will eventually see messages like ::
