Beatr

An easy way to send heartbeats to Beatr.io. Makes asynchronous POST requests to the Beat of your choice.

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'beatr'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install beatr

Usage

Set the Beat name:

# config/initializers/beatr.rb

Beatr.config.name = 'gorbypuff'.

You can also use a block:

Beatr.configure do |c|
  c.name = 'gorbypuff'
end

This will be visible to anyone listening at http://beatr.io/gorbypuff.

Then send a heartbeat by calling Beatr.beat. You can change your Beats on fly by calling Beatr.beat '<your-sweet-beat>'. This runs in a separate thread, so feel free to drop the notification into your normal codepaths without worrying about performance.

Using Gorbypuff is optional.
