Luka is an exception handling and reporting framework. It's useful to look at it
|
|
as an event handling framework.
|
|
|
|
It comes from operational understanding of networks.
|
|
|
|
Scenario that Luka is addressing is following: on a network with multiple hosts
|
|
running multiple applications, it is very difficult to track operational status
|
|
of all the functionality that those applications and hosts are meant to deliver.
|
|
In order to make it easier, we decided to specify the error handling and
|
|
reporting data model that each component delivering functionality has to conform
|
|
to. What is a component? In most cases, it is a script, often run from cronjob,
|
|
in some cases it is a class in an application. In all cases, a component has to
|
|
successfully complete a task on which functionality of an application, or entire
|
|
network, relies on.
|
|
|
|
It is common practice that programmers choose their way of handling errors and
|
|
reporting. Luka is an attempt to standardize that process. Its primary goal is
|
|
to make it easier for smaller number of people to keep larger number of
|
|
applications and networks running.
