Gyre GoDoc Build Status

This is a Golang port of Zyre 2.0, an open-source framework for proximity-based peer-to-peer applications, implementing the same ZeroMQ Realtime Exchange Protocol.

Description

Gyre does local area discovery and clustering. A Gyre node broadcasts UDP beacons, and connects to peers that it finds. This class wraps a Gyre node with a message-based API.

All incoming events are delivered via the recv call of a Gyre instance. The first frame defines the type of the message, and following frames provide further values:

ENTER fromnode headers ipaddress
    a new peer has entered the network
EXIT fromnode
    a peer has left the network
JOIN fromnode groupname
    a peer has joined a specific group
LEAVE fromnode groupname
    a peer has left a specific group
WHISPER fromnode message
    a peer has sent this node a message
SHOUT fromnode groupname message
    a peer has sent one of our groups a message

In SHOUT and WHISPER the message is a single frame in this version. In ENTER, the headers frame contains a packed dictionary.

To join or leave a group, use the Join and Leave methods. To set a header value, use the SetHeader method. To send a message to a single peer, use Whisper method. To send a message to a group, use Shout.

Example (docker)

Run following command in a terminal:

docker run --rm -i --tty -t armen/gyre chat -name yourname

And repeat the above command in another terminal, the chat instances will discover eachother. Happy chatting!
