Hello,
I am trying to replicate something similar to what Facebook has done
with Kea hooks. I'd like our back end to be the source of truth for all
client information. If a record does not exist in the back end, no
address/lease should be given out. I'd also like to cache this
information for a period of time either natively via storing leases
somewhere or via Memcached or something else. I currently have written a
hook that queries our source of truth via curl, parses the JSON
returned, and inserts this information into a C++ map. This is where I
am lost. I have no idea which call outs to hook into, what information
I need to replace, etc... Any insight or help would be greatly appreciated!
