ruby_skynet

Ruby Client for calling Skynet services. Will also implement the server side so that Skynet Services can be hosted in Ruby

• http://github.com/ClarityServices/ruby_skynet

Example

require 'rubygems'
require 'ruby_skynet'
RubySkynet::Client.connect('TutorialService') do |tutorial_service|
  p tutorial_service.call('AddOne', 'value' => 5)
end

For details on installing and running the Tutorial Service: https://github.com/bketelsen/skynet/wiki/Service-Tutorial

Logging

Since ruby_skynet uses SemanticLogger, trace level logging of all TCP/IP calls can be enabled as follows:

require 'rubygems'
require 'ruby_skynet'
SemanticLogger::Logger.default_level = :trace
SemanticLogger::Logger.appenders << SemanticLogger::Appender::File.new('skynet.log')

RubySkynet::Client.connect('TutorialService') do |tutorial_service|
  p tutorial_service.call('AddOne', 'value' => 5)
end

Architecture

ruby_skynet implements its own doozer client which has been tested against the doozer fork: https://github.com/4ad/doozerd. The doozer client uses the active ruby_protobuf project for marshaling data for communicating with doozer

Dependencies

• Ruby MRI 1.8.7 (or above), Ruby 1.9.3, Or JRuby 1.6.3 (or above)
• SemanticLogger
• ResilientSocket
• ruby_protobuf
• multi_json

Install

gem install ruby_skynet

Future

• Implement Skynet Service in Ruby so that it can be called from Go lang, etc.
• Immediately drop connections to a service on a host when that instance shuts down or stops. ( Doozer::Wait )
• More intelligent selection of available Skynet services. For example nearest, or looking at load etc.
