3.4.5. RE-WORKER-HTTPREQUEST

Release Engine Worker Plugin that executes HTTP requests.

This worker takes two configuration files. The first is the worker configuration file. It should look like this:

{
  "queue": "httprequest"
}

This worker takes the normal MQ configuration as it’s only configuration file:

{
  "server": "127.0.0.1",
  "port": 5672,
  "vhost": "/",
  "user": "guest",
  "password": "guest"
}

• Set the MQ config file parameters to sane values (see also: Setting Up The Bus)
• Run the worker: re-worker-httprequest -w $YOUR_WORKER_CONFIG $YOUR_MQ_CONF.json

We should see output similar to the following if everything well:

[user@frober re-worker-httprequest]$ re-worker-httprequest -w httprequest.json mq.json
