callback system

[alfredodeza]

Whenever a repository is fully built and ready to be consumed, it would be nice to be able to define a URL to get a POST with metadata information about the repository:

• distro
• distro version(s)
• ref (and sha1?)
• architecture
• timestamp(s)

This would help if a separate system is in charge of understanding what has been built. For testing purposes it is crucial to be able to know what distro versions at what sha1 are ready to be consumed.

Internally in Red Hat, IT and engineering is centering around using a message bus (AMPQ) to coordinate these sort of things with the build system. So Koji (Brew, internally) publishes messages to this bus, and other things (Jenkins or whatever) can subscribe to the bus to consume these messages and trigger other events.

Just an idea!
