Kids is a log aggregation system.
It aggregates messages like Scribe and its pub/sub pattern is ported from Redis.
- Real-time subscription
- Distributed collection
- Message persistence
- Multithreading
- Redis protocol
- No third-party dependencies
You need a complier with C++11 support like GCC 4.7 (or later) or Clang.
Download a source release, then:
tar xzf kids-VERSION.tar.gz
cd kids-VERSION
./configure
make
make test # optional
make install
By default, it will be installed to /usr/local/bin/kids.
You can use the --prefix option to specify the installation location.
Run ./configure --help for more config options.
Kids comes with some sample config files in samples/, after building, simply run:
kids -c samples/dev.conf
Because kids uses redis protocol, you can use redis-cli to play with it, open another terminal:
$ redis-cli -p 3888
$ 127.0.0.1:3388> PSUBSCRIBE *
In yet another terminal:
$ redis-cli -p 3388
$ 127.0.0.1:3388> PUBLISH kids.testtopic message
redis-cli needs redis to be installed. On Mac, you can run brew install redis to install it. On Linux, run sudo apt-get install redis-tools
Run kids --help for more running options.
Do the following:
git clone https://github.com/zhihu/kids.git
cd kids
cp samples/dev.conf debian/kids.conf
docker build -t zhihu/kids .
Now you can run it like this:
docker run -d -p 3388:3388 zhihu/kids
You can also specify the config file like this:
docker run -d -v /path/to/kids/conf:/etc/kids.conf -p 3388:3388 zhihu/kids
See configuration.
see production.
You will need
- build-essential
- libtool
- automake
- c++ compiler with c++ 11 support like gcc4.7+ or Clang
to build kids from source. Run the following to build kids:
./autogen.sh
./configure
make
