NAME
hobbitd_sample - example of a hobbitd worker module
SYNOPSIS
hobbitd_channel --channel=status hobbitd_sample [options]
DESCRIPTION
hobbitd_sample is a worker module for hobbitd, and as such it is
normally run via the hobbitd_channel(8) program. It receives messages
from hobbitd via stdin, and simply displays these on stdout. It can be
used with all types of hobbitd channels.
hobbitd_sample is not designed to actually run, except as a
demonstration. The purpose of this tool is to show how hobbitd worker
modules can be implemented to handle different tasks that need to hook
into the hobbitd processing.
