Hi, i'm searching a API to handle messages by two node apps, and i found zeromq and maked some tests with the req/rep pattern using async with multiples clients and multiples workers, using the pattern router-dealer of zeromq with async! can i implement the router-dealer in node-nanomsg with multiples clients making multiples requests via req/rep with load balance ? Thanks and sorry for my english!

This is what you are looking for: https://github.com/nickdesaulniers/node-nanomsg/blob/master/examples/pipeline.js

Push and pull sockets. The push socket will be your server sending data to the connected pull sockets using round robin.

You may want to ping your clients connecting them to a surveyor socket which will then ping clients collecting answers enumerating the connected clients.

Hi! Ty for the fast answer! But in pattern of PULL/PUSH is one directional, correct? I need a REQ/REP, where my client sent a message to a worker execute a process and the worker need to reply the message to my client with a message! With the pipeline example is it possible ?

sounds like a good use case for nn_device, see #145 and #143
