I need a cherrypy RPC hierarchy like:
/a/foo/bar
/a/wilma/betty
/b/blee/blah
/b/mip/smip
/c/mumble/stumble
/c/fred/barney
...where /a, /b and /c are handled by a master process, dispatching based on these three prefixes to three different subprocesses. I'm not sure yet if os.fork() or multiprocessing would be better for this. I'm also not sure if it'd be better to use multiprocessing.Queue or wspbus.Bus for interprocess communication.
And despite being a pretty accomplished Python developer, I really don't know where to start. I've googled quite a bit over the last 18 hours, and found pretty much nothing that looks similar.
The goal is to have a REST-like RPC hierarchy in which (EG) all of /b can be restarted without impacting service of /a or /c by restarting the subprocess that serves /b.
BTW, we're planning to use RoutesDispatcher, but requesting info about that here is just too much; I'm afraid this question is already too specific to get answers. So, if someone has done this (or has thoughts on how to do it) with one of the Dispatchers that come with CherryPy, or indeed any CherryPy dispatcher, please let me know how you did (or could do) it!
Anyone?
