Hi all, Piped is a new library for processing messages from Amazon's Simple Queue Service (SQS). It makes use of aws-api and core.async to implement a message processing machine with easy-to-implement hooks for user space code. Feedback and issue reports are certainly welcome as it's quite young. Find it at https://github.com/RutledgePaulV/piped. Main Features: - lightweight (no amazonica!) - graceful shutdown sequence - automatic lease extensions - batches calls to aws for receiving and acking - decent performance (still need to benchmark others though) - supports blocking and non-blocking consumers
