Agents for Job Execution and Communication Tasks
|
|
================================================
|
|
|
|
Agents collect informations and transfer them e.g. to a loops server.
|
|
|
|
($Id$)
|
|
|
|
This package does not depend on zope or the other loops packages
|
|
but represents a standalone application.
|
|
|
|
But we need a reactor for working with Twisted; in order not to block
|
|
testing when running the reactor we use reactor.iterate() calls
|
|
wrapped in a ``tester`` object.
|
|
|
|
>>> from cybertools.agent.tests import tester
|
|
|
|
|
|
Master Agent
|
|
============
|
|
|
|
The agent uses Twisted's cooperative multitasking model.
|
|
|
|
This means that all calls to services (like crawler, transporter, ...)
|
|
return a deferred that must be supplied with a callback method (and in
|
|
most cases also an errback method).
|
|
|
|
>>> #from cybertools.agent.core.agent import Master
|
|
>>> #master = Master()
|
|
