The nanomsg library is a simple high-performance implementation of several "scalability protocols". These scalability protocols are light-weight messaging protocols which can be used to solve a number of very common messaging patterns, such as request/reply, publish/subscribe, surveyor/respondent, and so forth. These protocols can run over a variety of transports such as TCP, UNIX sockets, and even WebSocket.

For more information check the website.

    • CMake 2.8.7 or newer, available in $PATH as cmake
  2. POSIX (Linux, MacOS X, UNIX)

    • ANSI C compiler supporting C89
    • POSIX pthreads (should be present on all modern POSIX systems)
    • BSD sockets support for both TCP and UNIX domain sockets
    • CMake (http://cmake.org) 2.8.7 or newer, available in $PATH as cmake
