rpc

originally discovered by bainchild in https://github.com/bainchild/rpc2-rs

Usage

local RPC = require("@pkg/rpc")

RPC.init(function(packetId: number, data: buffer)
	print(`{packetId} -> {buffer.tostring(data)}`)
end)

-- This yields until the Rust side sends an Acknowledgement automatically
RPC.send(buffer.fromstring("Hello rpc!"))

while task.wait(1) do
	-- This yields until the Rust side sends an Acknowledgement automatically
	RPC.send(buffer.fromstring("Hello rpc! @ " .. os.clock()))
end

Drawbacks

• cannot read faster than 1.25-1.5 seconds in loop
• rust side is heavily overengineered
• probably uses too much memory
