class EchoProtocol(Axon.Component.component)

EchoProtocol() -> new EchoProtocol component

Simple component that copies anything sent to its "inbox" inbox to its "outbox" outbox.

Inboxes

• control : Secondary inbox often used for signals. The closest analogy is unix signals
• inbox : Default inbox for bulk data. Used in a pipeline much like stdin

Outboxes

• outbox : Default data out outbox, used in a pipeline much like stdout
• signal : The default signal based outbox - kinda like stderr, but more for sending singal type signals
