Idea: Use supervisor for triggering harvest

pdekraker-epa opened this issue · 1 comments

Currently supervisor is the suggested way to run the harvest workers. The recurring triggering of harvests is done via a cron job. Docker is becoming more common for CKAN deployments and cron can require setup to run within the container. An alternative approach that may simplify setup could be to allow harvester to run via supervisor in an event listener mode and receive events like TICK_3600 or TICK_60 to initiate the harvest jobs.

Relevant again, see ckan/ckan-docker-base#78
