ó ÍÿŠTc @ s d Z d S( sN The broker mediates communication between client and server. Each communication between client and server is initiated by the broker and performed with an HTTP POST, called `exchange`. The client sends messages to the server by including them in the request body, and the server sends messages to the client by including them in the request response (see L{landscape.broker.exchange} and L{landscape.broker.transport}). Client components running in different processes (like the manager and the monitor) connect to the broker process using Unix sockets and can then ask the broker to perform actions like queuing messages for delivery to the server or to dispatching them all messages of a given type that the broker receives from the server (see L{landscape.broker.server} and L{landscape.broker.amp}). When the broker is started for the first time, it will perform a few exchanges to register the client against the server using the values provided in the configuration file (see L{landscape.broker.registration}). If the registration is successful, or the client was previously registered, the broker will start pinging the server to check if there are messages that the server wants to deliver to the client and if so will schedule a urgent exchange (see L{landscape.broker.ping}). In case the ping check says that there are no messages from the server, the broker will still perform an exchange every 15 minutes (see L{BrokerConfiguration}), to deliver to the server possible messages generated by the client (i.e. by the broker itself or by the other client components like the monitor and the manager).
