gell-runtime v0.5.3

gell-runtime

run event based sequences in any environment

Concepts

signal (or shutdown signal)

• ...

ingress

• sequence that receives messages (usually externally) and dispatches them as events

dispatcher

Events

• start
• stop
• shutdown?
• kill

Use Cases

• HTTP server
  • HTTP endpoints * Websocket endpoints
• Docker daemon

Roadmap

• shutdown sequences
• ecosystem discovery/bootstrapping
• lifecycle sequences
• Mocha as a runtime
  • logger per test * bootstrap dependencies with discovery

Shutdown Sequences

• execute code as part of runtime shutdown

Ecosystem Discovery/Bootstrapping

• ...

Lifecycle Sequences

• related to Shutdown Sequences
  • "shutdown" is just another lifecycle event
• execute arbitrary code
• potential sequences
  • bootstrap * validate
• lifecycle events could be passed to futures as well
  • hazy on this idea for now

Brainstorm

• this was originally intended for Docker based runtimes but could be extended
  • lambda functions
