goferd - The Gofer Agent Daemon

Synopsis

goferd [ -h ] [ -c ] [ -p seconds ]

Description

goferd is the daemon for the Gofer Agent which provides an extensible, light weight, universal python agent. The gofer core agent is a python daemon (service) that provides infrastructure for exposing a remote API and for running Recurring Actions. The APIs contributed by plug-ins are accessible by Remote Method Invocation (RMI). The transport for RMI is AMQP using the qpidd(1) message broker. Actions are also provided by plug-ins and are executed at the specified interval.
