A demo application showing off how to use Django middleware and IronMQ to do analytics on each request.

1. Install Django

2. Install Redis

3. Install py-redis

4. Sign up for IronMQ

5. Set your IronMQ credentials:

    export IRON_PROJECT_ID="insert your project ID here"
    export IRON_TOKEN="insert your oauth token here"
   

6. Clone this repo

7. Set up your push queues

   • Go into the Iron.io HUD and browse to your requests queue
   • In the box labeled “Push Information”, select “multicast” for the Push Type.
   • Leave Retries and Retries Delay at their default values.
   • Hit “Update Queue”. You’ve turned the queue into a push queue.

8. Start redis: redis-server

9. Start the app: python manage.py runserver

10. Start the request worker: python req_worker.py

11. Start the UA worker: python ua_worker.py

Now when you load the page and refresh it a few times, your statistics should be collected.
