Librecast
@librecast@chaos.social  ·  activity timestamp 6 months ago

We've got a new tool! lcagent version 0.1.0, the #Librecast #multicast agent.

In server mode, lcagent can be configured to listen on Librecast Channels (multicast groups) and execute programs in response to packet data received on those Channels.

Packets must be accompanied by an authorized token and signed by the matching key or they will be silently dropped.

Data is encoded with #RaptorQ using Librecast’s liblcrq library to provide forward error correction in the event of packet loss.

lcagent can be used to send and receive data over #multicast and to pipe data between programs on one computer and as many receivers as the multicast network can support simultaneously. We're currently using it now to run our own CI builds by multicasting the patch to multiple build servers simultaneously.

This could also be useful for monitoring and configuration management.
