mug 🍺

A TCP client for Gleam!

gleam add mug

import mug

pub fn main() {
  // Form a connection to a TCP server
  let assert Ok(socket) =
    mug.new("erlang-the-movie.example.com", port: 12345)
    |> mug.timeout(milliseconds: 500)
    |> mug.connect()

  // Send a packet to the server
  let assert Ok(Nil) = mug.send(socket, <<"Hello, Joe!\n":utf8>>)

  // Receive a packet back
  let assert Ok(packet) = mug.receive(socket, timeout_milliseconds: 100)
  
  packet
  // -> <<"Hello, Mike!":utf8>>
}

It also includes support for receiving packages as Erlang messages, enabling TCP sockets to be used within OTP actors.
