Whenever I design a new microservice I'm always like. "Better hook up Kafka" only to realize that HTTP is probably preferable.
@Nurbs actually, this reminds me of a thing I wanted to tinker with - I've been splitting monolithic code off into independent units (ex. for sky brightness, cloud cover, weather, etc.)
It's still the original C code to interface with the sensor hardware because this isn't *officially* a to-do item, but I just slapped a dumb "periodically read out values" network interface on top of it for now.
Got a good lightweight httpd library I can plug into C that isn't obnoxious to use?
@SomeEgrets I only have a c compiler installed as apple forced it upon me.
@Nurbs I mean, it wouldn't be my first choice anymore either, but I'm kinda stuck with it, because I can barely keep up with day to day bullshit, much less learn a whole new language and then migrate everything to it.
@Nurbs I guess that answers the question though
@Nurbs I know there are a few, but like, nobody else actually cares about this or will ever make it a priority so it's not like I'm gonna get time to research and test any of this
