Monad to ease implementing a binary network protocol over ZeroMQ

Documentation

data BinaryProtocol a b c

Action type definition. a is the type of the reader ZeroMQ socket, b is the type of the writer ZeroMQ socket, and c is the return type of the action.

Instances

Monad (BinaryProtocol a b)

MonadIO (BinaryProtocol a b)

MonadReader (Socket a, Socket b) (BinaryProtocol a b)

runProtocol :: BinaryProtocol a b c -> Socket a -> Socket b -> IO c

Take a BinaryProtocol action and run it on the given ZeroMQ sockets for respectively reading and writing. The two given handles are allowed to be the same if the same handle is used for reading and writing.

receive :: Binary c => BinaryProtocol a b c

Read in a value of type c from the connection; c must be an instance of the Binary class. This is a wrapper around receive', not passing any flags.

receive' :: Binary c => [Flag] -> BinaryProtocol a b c

Read in a value of type c from the connection; c must be an instance of the Binary class. A list of Flags can be given.

send :: Binary c => c -> BinaryProtocol a b ()

Send a value of type c down the connection; c must be an instance of the Binary class. This is a wrapper aroung send', not passing any flags.

send' :: Binary c => [Flag] -> c -> BinaryProtocol a b ()

Send a value of type c down the connection; c must be an instance of the Binary class. A list of Flags can be given.

flush :: BinaryProtocol a b ()

Flush connections

Note: this is a no-op, provided for API compatibility with the Control.Monad.BinaryProtocol package.
