CZTop
CZTop is a CZMQ binding for Ruby. It is based on czmq-ffi-gen, the generated low-level FFI binding of CZMQ and has a focus on being easy to use for Rubyists (POLS) and providing first class support for security mechanisms (like CURVE).
Example with Async
See this example:
#! /usr/bin/env ruby
require 'bundler/inline'
gemfile do
source 'https://rubygems.org'
gem 'cztop', path: '../../'
gem 'async'
end
ENDPOINT = 'inproc://req_rep_example'
# ENDPOINT = 'ipc:///tmp/req_rep_example0'
# ENDPOINT = 'tcp://localhost:5556'
Async do |task|
rep_task = task.async do |t|
socket = CZTop::Socket::REP.new ENDPOINT
loop do
msg = socket.receive
puts "<<< #{msg.to_a.inspect}"
socket << msg.to_a.map(&:upcase)
end
ensure
puts "REP done."
end
task.async do
socket = CZTop::Socket::REQ.new ENDPOINT
10.times do |i|
socket << "foobar ##{i}"
msg = socket.receive
puts ">>> #{msg.to_a.inspect}"
end
puts "REQ done."
rep_task.stop
end
end
Output:
$ cd examples
$ time ./async.rb
<<< ["foobar #0"]
>>> ["FOOBAR #0"]
<<< ["foobar #1"]
>>> ["FOOBAR #1"]
<<< ["foobar #2"]
>>> ["FOOBAR #2"]
<<< ["foobar #3"]
>>> ["FOOBAR #3"]
<<< ["foobar #4"]
>>> ["FOOBAR #4"]
<<< ["foobar #5"]
>>> ["FOOBAR #5"]
<<< ["foobar #6"]
>>> ["FOOBAR #6"]
<<< ["foobar #7"]
>>> ["FOOBAR #7"]
<<< ["foobar #8"]
>>> ["FOOBAR #8"]
<<< ["foobar #9"]
>>> ["FOOBAR #9"]
REQ done.
REP done.

A slightly more complex version (more sockets) is here.

- YARD API documentation (release)
Feel free to start a wiki page.
Performance
CZTop is just a convenience layer on top of the thin czmq-ffi-gen library.
Make sure to check out the perf directory for latency and throughput measurement scripts.
