Overview

This is a kind of beanstalk message middleware: It generates and parses beanstalk messages from a ruby format into raw bytes. The raw bytes go directly into the tcp channel that underlies the beanstalk channel.

Messages are represented as simple Ruby arrays, specifying first the beanstalkd command, then arguments. Examples: 

[:use, 'a_tube']
[:delete, 123]

One exception: The commands that have a body attached will be described like so in protocol.txt: 

put <pri> <delay> <ttr> <bytes>\r\n
<data>\r\n

To generate this message, just put the data where the bytes would be and the serializer will do the right thing. 

[:put, pri, delay, ttr, "my_small_data"]

Results come back in the same way, except that the answers take the place of the commands. Answers are always in upper case.
