Network.BERT.Transport

Contents

Description

Transport for BERT-RPC client. Creates a transport from a URI, leaving flexibility for several underlying transport implementations. The current one is over sockets (TCP), with the URI scheme bert, eg: bert://localhost:9000

The TCP transport will create a new connection for every request (every block of withTransport), which seems to be what the current server implementations expect. It'd be great to have persistent connections, however.
