Thanks for the proposal! Instead of modifying the existing Pulsar client library, I think it's better to create a separate library. The request-reply / rpc model can be implemented on top of the Pulsar client instead of making the support for request-reply a first class citizen of the client API. There's an example of a Pulsar based RPC framework at https://github.com/streamnative/pulsar-recipes/tree/main/rpc .
We'd like to keep the Pulsar client library API as stable as possible and without increasing the size of it. The RPC library could be considered as a plugin or an add-on if we were to make it available in the Apache Pulsar project. I'll be happy to support this type of design. -Lari On 2024/08/08 15:09:17 SiNan Liu wrote: > Hi all. > > I drafted a proposal to support for request-reply model that implements RPC > calls in pulsar. > > https://github.com/apache/pulsar/pull/23143 > I'm looking forward to hearing from you. > > > Thanks, > sinan >
