Plusher: An Usher XML-RPC Server
Plusher is an Usher XML-RPC server which utilizes Usher's client API.
Requirements
Requirements for plusher are the same as those for Usher clients listed on the Documentation page. I've repeated them below:
Download
- plusher (latest nightly snapshot)
- client archives
- Mercurial Repository
Installation
Before installing plusher, make sure your system has the requisite software for clients listed in the Usher Clients section of the Usher Documentation page. In addition to those requirements, you'll need to have the Usher system installed since plusher relies upon modules there. Go to the Usher Downloads page to get the latest version of Usher if you don't already have it installed.
After meeting these requirements, simply download the plusher package.
$ tar xvzf plusher-latest.tgz $ cd plusher-revXXX
Configuration
You must create a client API configuration file for use by plusher. You may want to check out the Client Configuration Files section of the Clients web page to see how client application and client api configuration files work together.
After configuring, run plusher from the command line as './server.py'. A sample client which simply starts one VM is included as 'client.py'.
