The erlzmq2 application provides high-performance NIF based Erlang bindings for the ZeroMQ messaging library.
The erlzmq2 source code can be found on GitHub
$ git clone http://github.com/zeromq/erlzmq2.git
It is also available on Agner:
$ agner build erlzmq
In order to build erlzmq2 against a specific version of ZeroMQ (not 'v2.1.4'), use this:
$ ZEROMQ_VERSION=v<VERSION> agner build erlzmq
$ make
If you want to build against a specific version of ZeroMQ (not 'v2.1.4'), use this:
$ ZEROMQ_VERSION=v<VERSION> makeBuild the docs
$ make docsRun the test suite
$ make testRun the benchmarks (requires python and matplotlib)
$ make bench
This will run performance tests and output png graphs in the graphs directory.
Please note that to behave properly on your system ZeroMQ might require some tuning.
The bindings use Erlang's NIF (native implemented functions) interface to achieve the best performance. One extra OS thread and one pair of inproc sockets by context are used to simulate blocking recv calls without affecting the Erlang virtual machine's responsiveness.
The project is released under the MIT license.
