The tacker.common.topics Module

tacker.common.topics.get_topic_name(prefix, table, operation, host=None)

Parameters:

• prefix – Common prefix for the plugin/agent message queues.
• table – The table in question (NETWORK, SUBNET, PORT).
• operation – The operation that invokes notification (CREATE, DELETE, UPDATE)
• host – Add host to the topic

Returns:

The topic name.
