A daemon that connects systems to the RightScale cloud management platform.

A toolkit of useful, reusable foundation code created by RightScale.

RightAgent provides a foundation for running an agent on a server to interface in a secure fashion with other agents in the RightScale system using RightNet, which operates in either HTTP or AMQP mode. When using HTTP, RightAgent makes requests to RightApi servers and receives requests using long-polling or WebSockets via the RightNet router. To respond to requests it posts to the HTTP router. When using AMQP, RightAgent uses RabbitMQ as the message bus and the RightNet router as the routing node to make requests; to receives requests routed to it by the RightNet router, it establishes a queue on startup. The packets are structured to invoke services in the agent represented by actors and methods. The RightAgent may respond to these requests with a result packet that the router then routes to the originator.

RightScraper provides a simple interface to download and keep local copies of remote repositories up-to-date using the following protocols: * git: RightScraper will clone then pull repos from git * SVN: RightScraper will checkout then update SVN repositories * tarballs: RightScraper will download, optionally uncompress and expand a given tar file On top of retrieving remote repositories, right_scraper also include "scrapers" that will analyze the repository content and instantiate "resources" as a result. Currently supported resources are Chef cookbooks and RightScale workflow definitions.

RightAMQP provides a high availability client for interfacing with the RightScale RabbitMQ broker using the AMQP protocol. The AMQP version on which this gem is based is 0.6.7 but beyond that it contains a number of bug fixes and enhancements including reconnect, message return, heartbeat, and UTF-8 support. The high availability is achieved by maintaining multiple broker connections such that failed connections automatically reconnect and only connected brokers are used when routing a message. Although the HABrokerClient class is the intended primary means for accessing RabbitMQ services with this gem, alternatively the underlying AMQP services may be used directly.

RightInfrastructureAgent provides the foundation for RightScale infrastructure servers that connect into the RightScale system via the RabbitMQ message bus. It extends RightAgent in configuration, monitoring, and packet handling areas as needed generically by infrastructure servers.
