Welcome to nanomsg

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.

Build it with CMake

Go to the root directory of the local source repository.
To perform an out-of-source build, run:
mkdir build
cd build
cmake .. (You can add -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr/local or some other directory.)
cmake --build .
ctest -C Debug .
cmake --build . --target install NB: This may have to be done as a privileged user.
(Linux only). ldconfig (As a privileged or root user.)
