nsqlookupd
does not handle messages, those are only handled by nsqd
. nsqlookupd
is just a facilitator to discovering message topology, but it's focused on the consumption side, not on the producer side.
This section of the docs might be helpful for you https://nsq.io/deployment/topology_patterns.html#distributed-systems
Oh I see. i thought that lookupd serves as discovery for both consumers and producers and it's possible for producer to discover nsqd depending on the topic its pushing into. But my assumption is wrong. Now it makes more sense. Thank you very much!
Maybe I'm missing how it works, but why publish for producer accepts only
nsqd
address?
