Netlink Notify

A module to get netlink notification event on Linux.

Notification supported:

This module will generate an event for nodejs for every event it receives from netlink.

Depends:

• libmnl >= 1.0.0
• JSON for Modern C++ >= 2.0.0 (Already included from https://github.com/nlohmann/json)

Installation

npm install netlink-notify

Build and run

The netlink-notify library is dependent on libmnl library, so you may need to install libmnl before compiling. On Debian, and Debian derivates like Ubuntu, you need to install the package "libmnl-dev".

To build, you need the node package node-gyp:

npm install -g node-gyp

After you have all of the prerequisite packages installed, you can build avro-nodejs.

node-gyp configure build

There's a demo inside the demo/ dir.
