Crate ezrpc 

Features

• Ergonomic: the arguments type of RPC method can be any type which impls serde::Deserialize, and the returned type can be any type which impls serde::Serialize
• Zero-copy: the arguments type and returned type of RPC method can be reference type such as &[u8], &str, equivalent to reference to the data in packet buffer, without any copy
• Asynchronous support
• WebAssembly support：provides built-in bindings to WebSocket via wasm-bindgen, you can use this crate in WASM，and exposed interfaces to JavaScript to use it in browser, check out the binding
• Flexible: multiple communication method support, and you can impl the Adapter trait to custom the communication method
  1. Network: Based WebSocket，it can be used to communicate with Web(via WASM)，and can also be used for communication between two processes on the network
  2. IPC(Inter-Process Communication): Based named pipe on Windows, while based domain socket on Linux
  3. Inner-Process Communication：Based tokio’s channel，can be used for communication between different threads in the same process
