survey communication topology

SURVEYOR / RESPONDENT — Everybody Votes

SURVEYOR / RESPONDENT asks connected peers a question and collects their responses.

Start in a Go module and install the current major version: go get go.nanomsg.org/mangos/v3. The complete example below is synchronized with the mangos main branch.

// survey implements a survey example.  server is a surveyor listening
// socket, and clients are dialing respondent sockets.
//
// To use:
//
//   $ go build .
//   $ url=tcp://127.0.0.1:40899
//   $ ./survey server $url server & server=$!
//   $ ./survey client $url client0 & client0=$!
//   $ ./survey client $url client1 & client1=$!
//   $ ./survey client $url client2 & client2=$!
//   $ sleep 5
//   $ kill $server $client0 $client1 $client2
