Erlang Kinesis Client

Kinetic

Kinetic is an erlang Kinesis client built to be an OTP application and easy to integrate and work with.

If you are running Kinetic from an EC2 instance with an IAM role it essentially doesn't need any configuration as it will be smart enough to grab everything from the context. At the same time it will be possible to override the context values with configured ones.

You can start an erl with:

$ erl -pa ebin -pa deps/*/ebin -s inets -s crypto -s ssl -s lhttpc -config development -s kinetic
Erlang R16B03-1 (erts-5.10.4) [source] [64-bit] [smp:4:4] [async-threads:10] [hipe] [kernel-poll:false] [dtrace]

Eshell V5.10.4  (abort with ^G)
1> kinetic:list_streams([]).
{ok, [{<<"HasMoreStreams">>,false},{<<"StreamNames">>,[]}]}

development.config allows the developer to override some configuration values to allow for different setups.

kinetic's Issues

Would you be interested in "modernizing"

I'd like to shave this yak by moving to a rebar3 build and using maps as the internal data representation for JSON. Is there any appetite on your part to merge in PRs toward that end? Thanks!
