nsqd: plan 9 compatibility

Open lootch opened this issue 8 years ago • 3 comments

The only alteration was the addition of internal/dirlock/dirlock_plan9.go as a mirror image of dirlock_windows.go (same empty functions) and, of course adding "!plan9" in dirlock.go. Maybe there is an easy way to implement directory locking in Plan 9, but at least it's established that nsq can be used as a Plan 9 application.

It seems that there is a file handle leak, presumably specific to Plan 9, that I now need to identify and fix.

@lootch thanks for looking into this! If you're up for it, open any PRs that address the issues you find.

I make no promises, but as I saw nsq as a neat option to handle SMSes to and from an old-fashioned GSM router I came across, I may well be able to contribute a little to the project.

I have not made much use of Go's multitasking features yet, this may become my training ground.

I'm quite impressed with nsq's functionality, which I discovered serendipitously while looking into alternative "logging" packages for Go.
