I have started a stream looper for LSST. It pulls messages from subscription
lsst-alerts-reservoirand publishes them to topiclsst-loopat a rate of 1 per second. This PR documents the commands used to do this.The looper is running on the VM
stream-looper, which also runs the ZTF looper. It runs inside of a screen, which unfortunately means that I am the only one who can access it. Someone else can always start a new looper inside their own screen, but then please let me know so I can properly close mine. Note that the python script is very old and could be replaced with much simpler code using pittgogle-client, but there is no need right now. The ZTF looper has been running consistently for a long time (years), so I don't expect trouble as long as there are alerts in the subscription.Unrelated, I noticed that we have a subscription
lsst-alert_avros-counter. We don't use counter subscriptions for LSST, so this PR removes that from our deploy script. I manually deleted the resource from GCP.
