Aldrin
Aldrin is a message bus for service-oriented RPC and general interprocess communication.
Aldrin busses are star-shaped: there is a cental component, called the broker, to which multiple clients can connect. These client can then publish services for other clients to use.
Services are described in a small DSL called Aldrin schema and are composed of functions and events. Schemata are then processed by a code generator, which can output both client and server-side code.
Here is a small toy example of an echo service:
service Echo {
uuid = 8920965f-110a-42ec-915c-2a65a3c47d1f;
version = 1;
fn echo @ 1 {
args = string;
ok = string;
err = enum {
EmptyString @ 1;
}
}
fn echo_all @ 2 {
args = string;
err = enum {
EmptyString @ 1;
}
}
event echoed_to_all @ 1 = string;
}
