The Gofer Agent Daemon
Synopsis
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 an AMQP message broker. Scheduled actions may also provided by plug-ins and are executed at the specified interval.
