nats #57

Closed gedw99 closed 1 year ago

gedw99 commented 1 year ago

Maybe it would be cool to add NATS as it will allow it to run on windows also..

Ir maybe a generic MQ style api.

path_open_sockets.go might also work as nats supports standard tcp : https://docs.nats.io/reference/reference-protocols/nats-protocol#client-protocol

Hello @gedw99, thanks for reaching out!

The more examples we have the better in my opinion, so definitely +1 on adding one with NATS.

Would you be able to submit a PR to contribute to the repository?

gedw99 commented 1 year ago

I can submit a PR. Might be a while as tied up with Hugo / htmx stuff.

So if anyone wants to go for it please do

gedw99 commented 1 year ago

Btw I assumed that the problem on windows is sockets, hence why I suggested nats.

maybe my assumptions are wrong ?

achille-roussel commented 1 year ago

I followed up on your question about Windows at https://github.com/stealthrocket/wasi-go/issues/79

NATS as a backend for networking is a very interesting avenue, it kind of reminds me of the nanomsg days of exposing high-level protocols behind low-level socket APIs. We don't see an immediate need for it in @stealthrocket at the moment, so it won't make sense for us to invest engineering time in it, but I'm happy to provide guidance if you end up submitting a contribution for it.

@achille-roussel

yeah I did not expect it to be that needed in the core.

i just started using DAPR and it’s pub sub system which has a NATS Jetstream driver.

Wazero is also incorporated into DAPR http middleware.

So I am going to try out that system .

will close this as I see that this feature does not belong here , but thanks for the explanation. You are very patient
