At work, we use protobuf to communicate between all of our services. That said, we're mostly a Ruby shop. A few of the devs here have been working hard on our new implementation, which uses the actual protoc compiler to generate classes instead of some hand-parsing craziness that we used to use. I've been working a bit on an implementation for Node based on this work, but life keeps getting in the way. If anyone wants to have a crack at it, I highly recommend digging through the generator they worked on, available at https://github.com/localshred/protobuf/tree/master/ext/ruby_generator
Props to BJ and Brandon for awesomeness. :) --Josh On Wednesday, November 7, 2012 11:54:58 AM UTC-7, Jacob wrote: > > Since we're on this topic, what is the general state of > Avro/Thrift/Protobufs.
