Unix Domain Socket Interface #256

Open ebolyen opened 10 years ago

ebolyen commented 10 years ago

Just a thought that popped into my head last night:

After we support #255 we would be able to build a Unix Domain Socket Interface for interprocess communication. This would make it simple for other languages to execute PyQi commands which seems like a really cool idea. Imagine if Java, C, or even Node.js could call a Python library by just integrating [the Python library] with PyQi!

Unix Domain Sockets are supported by every operating system and might be a very impressive interface from a 3rd party user perspective.
