# Module: arednsigAgent.py
#
# Description: This module acts as an agent between the aredn node
# and aredn mest services. The agent periodically sends an http
# request to the aredn node, processes the response from
# the node, and performs a number of operations:
# - conversion of data items
# - update a round robin (rrdtool) database with the node data
# - periodically generate graphic charts for display in html documents
# - write the processed node status to a JSON file for use by html
# documents
