class buildbot.data.masters.Master¶

masterActive(name, masterid)¶

Parameters

name (unicode) – the name of this master (generally hostname:basedir)
masterid (integer) – this master’s master ID

Returns

Deferred

Mark this master as still active. This method should be called at startup and at least once per minute. The master ID is acquired directly from the database early in the master startup process.

expireMasters()¶

Returns: Deferred

Scan the database for masters that have not checked in for ten minutes. This method should be called about once per minute.

masterStopped(name, masterid)¶

Parameters

name (unicode) – the name of this master
masterid (integer) – this master’s master ID
