qtalk-go

qtalk-go is a versatile RPC and IO stream based IPC stack for Go:

• client or server can make RPC calls to the other end
• calls can be unary or streaming for multiple inputs/outputs
• pluggable data codecs for flexible object stream marshaling
• RPC calls designed to optionally become full-duplex byte streams
• muxing layer based on subset of SSH (qmux) and soon optionally QUIC
• qmux allows any io.ReadWriteCloser transport, including STDIO
• API inspired by net/http with easy function/method export on top
• supports passing remote callbacks over RPC

The goal was to come up with the most minimal design for the most flexibility in how you want to communicate between processes.

Getting Started

$ go get github.com/progrium/qtalk-go

The Examples wiki page walks through a bunch of ways it can be used. Here are quick links:

• Simple RPC
• Selector Routing
• Streaming Responses
• Bytestream Proxy
• Bidirectional Calling
• State Synchronization
