Template:Project We need utility which runs as a daemon and uses a set of rules specifying information sources to be checked on a schedule. It will be a Perl daemon based on the wikid.pl code.
Rules
The rules are defined as a list of items and can reside in a location available from any of the protocols it's set up to read from. Currently the rules must be bullet lists of 6 items as follows. Each set of these six items found in the rules resource will become an active task in the schedule. Our notifier rules are in Config:Notifier.
Rule Items
- Schedule: pattern to be applied to localtime
- Source: URL (file, http, mediawiki, pop3
- Match: Regular expression to determine information to extract from source
- Target: URL (file, mediawiki, mailto, irc)
- Message: containing $n args
- Comment: containing $n args (optional, used by some protocols like wiki or svn)
Example Uses
- SVN changes sent to chat room
- Changes to files appended to a log file
- Changed files syncronised to wiki article
- Changed articles written to files
- Price of a product changing shows up in wiki changes
