We can definitely add defaults, though the actual frequencies are configurable. Ex:
# config/citybus.rb
Shark::Agency.configure do |agency|
agency.use_manager :route_manager do |manager|
manager.object_type = Shark::Route
manager.update_frequency = '4h'
# Route information comes from DoubleMap and CityBus
manager.source_from :doublemap
manager.source_from :tripspark
end
...
end
The update_frequency = '4h'
is used to schedule update cycles for that manager, which is responsible for firing pretty much every event; in this case it's every 4 hours.
The current configuration for citybus is pretty much pulled out of thin air, but the times are:
For defaults, I think Vehicles should be lowered to every 5 seconds, which would reduce total network traffic by more than half. Other than that, these values should work, but there's no real rationale for them.
I've added "defaults" to the wiki with the above frequencies (with vehicles lowered from 2s to 5s).
So that it's possible see how often a heartbeat is emitted. This is particularly good to know for objects like routes, which have huge (~32kb) JSON representations.
