If all you want to do is publish a notification you can use oslo.messaging directly. Or, for something lighter weight, we have Notabene, which is a small wrapper on Kombu.
<div><br>
</div>
<div>An example of how our notification simulator/generator uses it is available here:</div>
<div><a href="https://github.com/StackTach/notigen/blob/master/bin/event_pump.py" target="_blank">https://github.com/StackTach/notigen/blob/master/bin/event_pump.py</a></div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Of course, you'll have to ensure you fabricate a proper event payload. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Hope it helps</div>

<p class="MsoNormal">Hi Folks,</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Are there any guide or examples to show how to produce a new event or notification add add a handler for this event in ceilometer?</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I am asked to implement OpenStack service monitoring which will send an event and trigger the handler once a service, say nova-compute, crashes, in a short time.
<span style="font-family:Wingdings">L</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The link (<a href="http://docs.openstack.org/developer/ceilometer/events.html" target="_blank">http://docs.openstack.org/developer/ceilometer/events.html</a>) does a good job on the explanation of concept and hence I know that I need to
emit notification to message queue and ceilometer-collector will process them and generate events but it is far from real implementations.</p>
