Rubicante Description

A business natural language (BNL) for System Administrators (SAs) Rubicante allows system administrators to define their networks in terms of servers, what those servers provide (websites, Win32 services), and what ports they listen on. Once the network is defined, system administrators will be able to type in natural language questions about the network and quickly receive answers. Here are some key features of "Rubicante": Describe a network of computer systems: · Hosts: ports it should be listening on, critical web sites hosted Query the network: · What is wrong: returns items (hosts, websites) that are not functioning Requirements: · Ruby 1.8 or later · Trollop 1.13 or later What's New in This Release: · Updated hash commenting so that a space is no longer necessary (i.e., '#comment' vs. '# comment' now works) · Support empty lines in files and on the console · Gracefully handle missing files when the -r flag is used and log an error · Gracefully handle SocketErrors (typically unresolvable domain names) in website response code checking and log an error · Better parsing in website URLs · Handle http:// · Handle https:// (with logged warning - we do not support HTTPS requests yet) · Handle extened paths · Example: host www provides website my.railsapp.com/follow/my/path · Will perform an HTTP GET on the path when checking the return code · Logging improvements · Set a new default logging pattern · Fixed issue with a rouge newline character in Rubicante::Environment's debug logging
