Description of work
Stream bluesky documents to kafka. This enables remote, out-of-process callbacks to trigger from bluesky scans or data-points.
See https://reduce.isis.cclrc.ac.uk/redpanda-console/topics/NDW2922_bluesky?p=-1&s=50&o=-1#messages for an example of msgpack-encoded documents which have been streamed from my dev machine.
This is using the upstream
bluesky-kafkaintegration. It looks like that implementation is somewhat used by one or two facilities, but much less than core bluesky. If the upstream implementation causes a problem later, it would be pretty trivial to write our own (direct) wrapper that forwards messages toconfluent-kafkaviamsgpackdirectly.Ticket
