A consumer for a bitly decode stream, and publisher to a Socrata dataset.

Additional details available at: http://www.usa.gov/About/developer_resources/developers.shtml http://blog.usa.gov/post/7054661537/1-usa-gov-open-data-and-hack-day

KNOWN ISSUES

  • does not support proxy servers
  • does not support fallbacks in connection attempt timing
  • buffered data is discarded under the following conditions (not a big deal for small buffer sizes):
    • connection failures of the source stream
    • shutting down the app (CTRL-C)
  • bitly doesn't send periodic linefeeds when there's no click activity, so the stream can be timed out by any involved agents (proxy servers, etc) along the connection path.

CHANGELOG:

0.2 / 2012-01-14

  • Rewrote connection handling to recycle EventMachine, supporting HTTP response codes
  • Added configuration options for connection, session timeouts
  • Added timestamps to all console outputs
  • Added console output for bitly hashes successfully written to socrata
  • Changed "Short URL" output so the URL isn't hardcoded (now uses Short URL CNAME [bitly:hh])
