Honk-RPC
Implementation of the Honk-RPC remote procedure call protocol.
Overview
The honk-rpc crate is a bare-bones implementation of the Honk-RPC protocol. This protocol is heavily inspired by JSON-RPC, but uses BSON as the underlying message format to enable more efficient transmission of large binary payloads.
Functionality is defined and implemented in namespace-scoped ApiSet objects. A Honk-RPC client/server pair and all the associated communications and request handling is encapsulated in a Session object.
For now, communications are presumed to take place over a Rust object implementing both std::io::Read and std::io::Write. In practice, this is presumed to be a std::io::TcpStream.
⚠ Unstable ⚠
The honk-rpc crate's API and the Honk-RPC protocol specification are considered unstable. The honk-rpc crate will likely be changed in the future to operate purely on bson objects and lave the specifics of the transport layer up to consumers of the crate.
