PyZMQ improvements

Open JensRantil opened this issue 12 years ago • 5 comments

Improvements to http://docs.python-guide.org/en/latest/scenarios/network/#pyzmq; Mention that it supports in-process message passing, inter-process message passing and tcp message passing.

Playing devil's advocate but aren't those features of ∅MQ and not specific to PyZMQ? Do they warrant mentioning when speaking of a wrapper for that service?

Good call! I just read http://docs.python-guide.org/en/latest/notes/styleguide/#relevancy which states

Avoid including too much information on subjects that don’t directly relate to Python development.

I had not read the passage before. Instead I guess we should probably:

  • remove the list of "basic patterns" since it is not really relevant to Python.
  • Change the link to the Guide to http://zguide.zeromq.org/py:all

:+1:

Change the link

What about including both and giving the reader the option to choose which they wish to know more about? I had to do some ZMQ research recently and ended up using both as a reference. I still don't feel I know it (or its API) well enough to know which is more or less useful.

:+1: I'll see if I can make a pull request on this when I have the time.
