Network library

The network library (library.network) contains components for connecting Metrici solutions to other systems.

The HttpClient Proxy type creates a node that can be executed to perform HTTP calls using the HttpClient service. This allows fixed parts of the call (such as the URL and credentials) to be held in a configuration file, and parameters to the call to be passed with the execute.

The Network library contains the Channel type, which is typically used as the extended Connection type.

A channel node which can be used to communicate with a channel node in a different account. Channel links use key pairs rather than user names and passwords, and are used to support processes that are distributed across multiple accounts. Channels are used with worker processes - see the workers topic.
