Quick PoC how a
clusterd
daemon could look like.Usage in practice would be to just ensure we start the daemon OR if ANY of the nodes is using daemon discovery make sure one of them spawns it or something like that.
This way nodes can join without hardcoding discovery of peer nodes when playing around locally.
This is inspired by https://forums.swift.org/t/beginner-advice-for-distributed-distributedcluster-modules/72391/11 and erlang's shortnames + https://www.erlang.org/docs/25/man/epmd
Creating a few nodes in a system would literarily be:
this basically just does:
This is the same as epmd, it has to be running somewhere.
And applications just do:
and you're done:
they'll join eachother.
