Support for curve-zmq #97

Closed niamster closed 9 years ago

digitalextremist commented 9 years ago

Awesome. Should the .deb files maybe be part of culture/debs like we have culture/gems right now?

niamster commented 9 years ago

@digitalextremist these debs are actually dcell-specific so I don't see why anybody else want to have them. I would really prefer to get rid of them as they should be only used on travis(recent ubuntu and debian SID should have them). In Arch it's already there since ages. In practice if a distro doesn't have have appropriate version of libzmq it must be build manually. I've tried to build 'em on travis but it's takes too much time. So in the end I prebuilt these debs myself.

digitalextremist commented 9 years ago

Ah! I wondered. I understand/agree on all points.

digitalextremist commented 9 years ago

Exciting to see CurveZMQ coming in. I abandoned my branch a long time ago when you mentioned changes coming to the library. So is the library settled now?

niamster commented 9 years ago

Yes, I believe so. Next step would be to add stats(for monitoring and load balancing). Also it would be nice to get rid of registries(too many of them!) and build smth on top of DCell itself. Maybe smth like Raft but in fact DCell doesn't require that tight synchronization and also I don't like the idea of a single master.

digitalextremist commented 9 years ago

I'm itching to use DCell+CZMQ myself, so don't worry about superstructure coming in over it. Especially if we can thin-out the registries. Any thoughts on using protobuf or similar for data exchange?

niamster commented 9 years ago

You want to have a server written in C? Well, I was thinking myself about that.

tarcieri commented 9 years ago

@niamster you could use an eventually consistent gossip protocol ala riak_core or Serf (i.e. SWIM)

He already switched to msgpack, which is a nice fit for a dynamic language like Ruby

digitalextremist commented 9 years ago

@tarcieri, ah -- I fell out of the loop on that one. Congratz @niamster.

How's Japan going, are you still there @tarcieri?

tarcieri commented 9 years ago

I'm back in the US now

digitalextremist commented 9 years ago

msgpack looks great. Excited to check that out further.

I hope the trip was great.

Just signed a two-year lease on a new lab, once I settle in, I'm planning to head up that way.

(currently writing a actor for czmq in c which does raft internally and exposes a REST "API")

Asmod4n commented 9 years ago

(Its using http://rfc.zeromq.org/spec:40/XRAP for REST)

shadoi commented 9 years ago

@Asmod4n wow, this sounds very interesting, can you share anything yet?

Asmod4n commented 9 years ago

@shadoi nothing useable yet: https://github.com/Asmod4n/craft, logic is in src/craft.c.

niamster commented 9 years ago

I'm going to merge this and close #62 if there are no objections here.
