This library provides a little helper, used in 40Ants webservices. it does two things:

• Starts Slynk server in there is SLYNK_PORT env variable.
• Setup logging for connected Slynk connection. It uses 40ants-logging system for configuration.

API

variable 40ants-slynk:*connections* nil

Here we'll store all Slynk connections.

function 40ants-slynk:start-slynk-if-needed

Use this function before starting the backend server.
