drossel-server

Drossel is a (very unfinished) queue server modeled after Kestrel.

Prerequisites

Cargo is required to build. To install Cargo and Rust in one go, use:

$ curl https://static.rust-lang.org/rustup.sh | sudo bash

Compilation

Compile using:

$ cargo build

Run

Run using:

$ target/drossel-server

The server runs on port 7890.

Interact

drossel currently only understands three messages, delivered over a raw TCP connection:

Set an item on a queue:

SET <queue_name> binary

Get an item from a queue:

GET <queue_name>

The <queue_name> is currently ignored (read the unfinished thing? ;)).

TODO

• Give it a license
• Implement persistence
• Implement multiple queues
• Implement fan-out queues
• Implement tenative fetch
