The festivals server tools repository contains server functions shared between server components of the FestivalsApp.
Development • Deployment • Engage
This repository serves as a toolkit for shared functionality among the server components of the FestivalsApp.
It consolidates common tasks like sending a heartbeat to the festivals-gateway,
updating server binaries from GitHub, responding to client requests, and more. By centralizing these functions,
the repository reduces code duplication, simplifies maintenance, and makes refactoring easier.
See the DOCUMENTATION for more information about the components of the servertools package.
The development of festivals-server-tools is closely tied to the specific functionality it supports.
For example, the heartbeat sender implementation relies heavily on the festivals-gateway
implementation, whereas the response tools are designed to operate independently of other project components.
Each task is designed to minimize dependencies, ensuring the tools remain lightweight and efficient.
However, direct imports from any other FestivalsApp components are strictly prohibited.
