[Building Sakai] Capturing real time data

[Adam Marshall]

There was a discussion many moons ago about getting Sakai tools to spit out RSS containing event data. This was 5 years ago or so. Before the days of Entity Borker I think.

Not sure anything ever happened.

Subject: [Building Sakai] Capturing real time data

Hello,

We are trying to find a method to capture Sakai data as it is created, in real time, and send it to an external system.

e.g.
Instructor creates a new announcement. As the announcement is created, we want to capture that data/event and send it to an external system.

Possible solutions:

1. Write a component that listens on Sakai events and extracts the needed data as the events occur.

2. Write DB triggers on selected tables, e.g. Announcements, and capture and send the data that way.

Has anybody in the Sakai community tried doing something like this?

Best,
-- Thomas
