Title: PulseGuardian Hacker
Mentor: Mark Côté (:mcote irc, Mozillians)
Pulse is a managed RabbitMQ cluster designed to provide loose coupling between automation and infrastructure tools. The goal of Pulse is to add visibility to Mozilla's tools and systems and to eliminate polling and other brittle methods of scraping data. This allows more robust, dynamic, and informative tools. This project will be to fix bugs and implement features which act as polish (or fixes to papercuts) to our existing toolchain.
To get started:
- Read up on Pulse
- Read up on PulseGuardian
- Setup pulse to hack on it
- Pick a good first bug to try out
- Learn more about the team and how it is used around Mozilla
We have a list of bugs and features on the Pulse wiki which should cover the duration of this program!
