Having an instance of the fedmsg-relay daemon is nice for debugging and having an instance of the fedmsg-irc daemon is nice to have some idea of what is happening on the bus before you start eventually doing useful things with the data. See the #fedora-fedmsg channel on freenode for an example of this. There are more helper services to stand up later if this proves useful: 'datanommer' for storing the history, 'fedmsg-gateway' for broadcasting events to end users, and others. > 2) create/reuse koji plugin (where it can be found?) You can take it from Fedora Infrastructure's ansible repo. There are other useful config bits that can be found in there. http://infrastructure.fedoraproject.org/infra/ansible/roles/koji_hub/files/fedmsg-koji-plugin.py > 3) set/implement koji plugin to send messages for fedmsg > > What other application do you have in centos that could use fedmsg? > > Once there is a running msg bus, instances set, etc., it will be easier to > debug and test. > > Ralph, Pierre, what would be the optimal distribution of instances for > fedmsg?

Any other ideas are appreciated. > Other issues and problems will arise while configuring the bus and koji. I'd be glad to help work on setting this up if it is desirable.
