Addresses: #528

Two new features are added in this release:

  • Override any config setting with an env-var. For any setting "foo", you can now set the env-var REZ_FOO_JSON to a JSON-encoded string. This works for any config setting. Note that the existing REZ_FOO env-var overrides are still in place also; if both are defined, REZ_FOO takes precedence. This feature means you can now override some of the more complicated settings with env-vars, such as package_filter.

  • Track context creation and sourcing via AMQP. Messages are published (on a separate thread) to the nominated broker/exchange/routing_key. You have control over what parts of the context are published. For more details: https://github.com/nerdvegas/rez/blob/master/src/rez/rezconfig.py#L414

Other notes:

  • The embedded simplejson lib was removed. The native json lib is used instead, and for cases where loads-without-unicoding-everything is needed, utils/json.py now addresses that instead.
