micro-update-manager 0.1.1

A Python package for monitoring and updating Python packages, managing and restarting dependent microservices.

micro-update-manager

micro-update-manager is a Python package designed for monitoring and updating Python packages. It manages and restarts dependent microservices as necessary, making it ideal for maintaining large-scale distributed systems, IoT setups, and embedded systems where package updates and service restarts are crucial.

Features

• Monitor Python Packages: Automatically checks for updates to specified Python packages.
• Service Management: Manages and restarts services (microservices, IoT devices, etc.) based on package updates.
• Configurable Interfaces: Supports various communication interfaces, including HTTP (with plans for gRPC and REST).
• Highly Configurable: Uses a YAML configuration file to specify package monitoring rules, service restart conditions, and more.

Installation

You can install the package via pip:

pip install micro_update_manager

Or clone the repository and install it locally:

git clone https://github.com/yourusername/micro_update_manager.git
cd micro_update_manager
pip install .

Usage

Configuration

Create a config.yaml file to define the packages to monitor and the services to manage. Below is an example configuration:

refresh_interval: 1800  # 30 minutes

packages:
  - name: "example_package"
    requires_restart: true
    processes_to_restart:
      - "microservice_A"
      - "microservice_B"

processes:
  microservice_A:
    interface:
      type: "http"
      host: "localhost"
      port: 5001
      endpoint: "/can_restart"
    command: "docker restart microservice_A"
    params: ""

  microservice_B:
    interface:
      type: "http"
      host: "localhost"
      port: 5002
      endpoint: "/can_restart"
    command: "docker restart microservice_B"
    params: ""

Running the Manager

To start the micro-update-manager, use the following command:

micro-update-manager

This will load the configuration from config.yaml, monitor the specified packages, and manage the restarting of services as needed.

Example Script

Here’s an example of how you can use the micro-update-manager in your own Python scripts:

from micro_update_manager import main

if __name__ == "__main__":
    main()
