Promiscuous::BlackHole

black hole (noun): a region of space having a gravitational field so intense that no matter or radiation can escape.

At Crowdtap, we love working with promiscuous. It makes it really cheap to break out microservices, which keeps apps small lean and agile. Unfortunately, since each of those small apps stores data independently, it's hard to pull all that data back together for analysis. That's where Promiscuous::BlackHole comes in.

Promiscuous::BlackHole hooks into existing data streams, automatically extracts all published data, and stores that data in a postgres database.

Promiscuous::BlackHole depends on a working version of promiscuous.

• Configure Promiscuous as normal to connect to publishers
• Configure Promiscuous::BlackHole to specify the database connection

1. Extend support for subscribing to ids that are not bson ids
2. Create adapter framework for supporting data stores other than postgres
3. Add configuration options
   • date and datetime regex
   • version field (use from Promiscuous)
   • type field
4. Add CLI
