I've recently implemented pub / sub ( http://redis.io/topics/pubsub ) in my redis class ( https://bitbucket.org/hsarvell/ext/src/default/redis.l?fileviewer=file-view-default ).
Redis is apt get installable in Ubuntu 14.04: sudo apt-get install redis-server, it will start and just work immediately without further action. If you put the whole ext project in /opt/picolisp/ext and run this script: (load "lib.l" "ext/base.l" "ext/redis.l" ) (de *RedisOnSubRes (println (last *RedisSubRes)) ) (setq R (new '(+Redis))) (connect> R) (subscribe> R "foo") #(wait 1) (println "finished") with ./pil subscribe.l in /opt/picolisp you will see "finished". If you uncomment the wait line you will not see "finished", the script stops on (wait 1) and I have no idea why. Since I don't pass in a second argument I would assume that wait has nothing to do with the *Run global in this case and that execution will simply pause for one millisecond and then continue but this does not happen. Extra detail: if you run with the wait line uncommented and start redis-cli in a different shell followed by the command PUBLISH pl-foo hello you will see "finished" in the first shell. So execution continues as soon as we get something back on the socket we have established. I don't get why wait literally needs something coming into (in ... ) in order to allow continued execution in this case. -- UNSUBSCRIBE: mailto:[email protected]?subject=Unsubscribe
