gen_gossip
gen_gossip allows you to quickly implement gossip protocols in Erlang.
Reason
This application was built to DRY up one of my existing projects. Having implemented several gossip protocols in the past I needed a way to re-use shared code common to many gossip based algorithms.
Features
- Supports Aggregation-Based Protocols based on this whitepaper
- Safe-guards for preventing your network from being flood with gossip messages
- Ability to subscribe to node events: netsplits, joining, leaving, etc.
Usage
See examples folder in src directory
Status
This is still a young project if you see anything wrong please open an issue or send a pull request.
