A daemon to maintain a telnet session for a web client. Looks for Tasks that are not done, sends the command to the telnet client and then marks the Task as done.

daemon.rb

while true do

  t = Task.first(:done => false)

  if t
    if t.command == "connect"
      @host = Net::Telnet.new({
        "Host" => "128.122.151.161",
        "Port" => 8080, "Timeout"=>25,
        "Output_log"=>"output_log.log",
        "Dump_log"=> "dump_log.log",
        "Prompt"=> /C:.*>/
      })
    else
      @host.puts(t.command)
    end

    t.done = true
    t.save
  end
end

Task.rb

class Task
  include DataMapper::Resource
  
  property :id, Serial
  property :done, Boolean
  property :command, String
end
