kdnotify - A keepalived FIFO handler

This is a utility that is primary focused on integrating with Keepalived's vrrp_notify_fifo_script and vrrp_notify_fifo configuration options.

It provides a more structured approach than Keepalived's suggested shell script, allowing users to specify rules for processing events, rather than requiring tedious and error prone handling of parsing and processing each event individually.

Usage

The primary usage of this binary requires three things:

1. A configuration file in /etc/kdnotify/config.yaml
2. A running kdnotify service, see kdnotify.socket
3. Enabling Keepalived to use this project for notifications via:

# Or in any other block where vrrp_notify_fifo_script is legal
global_defs {
  notify_fifo /run/kdnotify.fifo [username [groupname]]
}

Development

You can run make help in the repo root to get a list of available targets, but these are the most useful:

Target	Description
build	Build the binary to build/kdnotify
check	Run project checks and lints
install	Install the project to the local system
clean	Cleans build directory
configure	Configures build time directives

Make sure you run check before merging to master.
