require 'twitter' module Rackamole::Alert # Leverage twitter as a notification client. You can setup a private twitter account # and have your moled app twitt exception/perf alerts... class Twitt # This class is used to send out moled twitter notification. This feature is enabled # by setting both :twitter_auth and twitt_on options on the Rack::Mole. When a moled # feature comes around it will be twitted on your configured account. This allow your # app to twitt about it's status and issues. Currently there are no provisions to throttle # the twitts, hence sending out twitt notifications of every moled features would not be # a very good idea. Whereas sending twitts when your application bogs down or throws exception, # might be more appropriate. Further work will take place to throttle these events... # Creating a private twitter account and asking folks in your group to follow might be an # alternative to email. # # NOTE: This is just an alert mechanism. All moled events will be either logged or persisted in the db # regardless. # # === Params: # username :: The name on the twitter account # password :: The password of your twitter account def initialize( username, password ) raise "You must specify your twitter account credentials" unless username or password @username = username @password = password end # Send out a twitt notification based of the watched features.
