ipckit

A cross-platform IPC (Inter-Process Communication) library for Rust and Python.

Features

• Pipes: Anonymous and named pipes for parent-child process communication
• Shared Memory: Fast data sharing between processes using memory-mapped regions
• Unix Domain Sockets / Named Pipes: Bidirectional communication channels
• Message Channels: High-level message passing with serialization support
• File Channel: Simple file-based IPC for frontend-backend communication

Example

use ipckit::{NamedPipe, IpcError};

fn main() -> Result<(), IpcError> {
    // Create a named pipe server
    let server = NamedPipe::create("my_pipe")?;

    // In another process, connect as client
    // let client = NamedPipe::connect("my_pipe")?;

    Ok(())
