The Eclipse Zenoh: Zero Overhead Pub/sub, Store/Query and Compute. . Zenoh (pronounce _/zeno/_) unifies data in motion, data at rest and computations. It carefully blends traditional pub/sub with geo-distributed storages, queries and computations, while retaining a level of time and space efficiency that is well beyond any of the mainstream stacks. . Check the website [zenoh.io](http://zenoh.io) and the [roadmap](https://github.com/eclipse-zenoh/roadmap) for more detailed information. . ------------------------------- . # C API . This repository provides a C binding based on the main [Zenoh implementation written in Rust](https://github.com/eclipse-zenoh/zenoh). . ------------------------------- . ## How to build it . > :warning: **WARNING** :warning: : Zenoh and its ecosystem are under active development. When you build from git, make sure you also build from git any other Zenoh repository you plan to use (e.g. binding, plugin, backend, etc.). It may happen that some changes in git are not compatible with the most recent packaged Zenoh release (e.g. deb, docker, pip). We put particular effort in maintaining compatibility between the various git repositories in the Zenoh project. . 1. Make sure that [Rust](https://www.rust-lang.org) is available on your platform. Please check [here](https://www.rust-lang.org/tools/install) to learn how to install it. If you already have the Rust toolchain installed, make sure it is up-to-date with: . ```bash rustup update ``` . 2. Clone the [source] with `git`: . ```bash git clone https://github.com/eclipse-zenoh/zenoh-c.git ``` . [source]: https://github.com/eclipse-zenoh/zenoh-c . 3. Build: . Good CMake practice is to perform build outside of source directory, leaving source tree untouched. The examples below demonstrates this mode of building. On the other hand VScode by default creates build directory named 'build' inside source tree. In this case build script slightly changes its behavior. See more about it in section 'VScode'. . By default build configuration is set to `Release`, it's not necessary to add `-DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release` option on configuration step. But if your platform uses multi-config generator by default (this is the case on Windows), you may need to add option `--config Release` on build step. See more in CMake [build-configurations] documentation. Option`--config Release` is skipped in further examples for brewity. It's actually necessary for [Visual Studio generators] only. For [Ninja Multi-Config] the build script is able to select `Release` as the default configuration. . ```bash mkdir -p build && cd build cmake ../zenoh-c cmake --build . --config Release ``` . The generator to use is selected with option `-G`. If Ninja is installed on your system, adding `-GNinja` to `cmake` command can greatly speed up the build time: . ```bash cmake ../zenoh-c -GNinja cmake --build . ``` . Unstable api and/or shared memory support can be enabled by setting repectively `ZENOHC_BUILD_WITH_UNSTABLE_API` and `ZENOHC_BUILD_WITH_SHARED_MEMORY` Cmake flags to `true` during configuration step. . ```bash cmake -DZENOHC_BUILD_WITH_UNSTABLE_API=true -DZENOHC_BUILD_WITH_SHARED_MEMORY=true ../zenoh-c cmake --build . --config Release ``` . [build-configurations]: https://cmake.org/cmake/help/latest/manual/cmake-buildsystem.7.html#build-configurations [Visual Studio generators]: https://cmake.org/cmake/help/latest/manual/cmake-generators.7.html#id14 [Ninja Multi-Config]: https://cmake.org/cmake/help/latest/generator/Ninja%20Multi-Config.html . 4. Install: . To install zenoh-c library into system just build target `install`. You need root privileges to do it, as the default install location is `/usr/local`. . ```bash cmake --build . --target install ``` . If you want to install zenoh-c libraries locally, you can set the installation directory with `CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX` . ```bash cmake ../zenoh-c -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=~/.local cmake --build . --target install ``` . By default only dynamic library is built and installed. Set `BUILD_SHARED_LIBS` variable to false to build and install static library: . ```bash cmake ../zenoh-c -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=~/.local -DBUILD_SHARED_LIBS=FALSE cmake --build . --target install ``` . The result of installation is the header files in `include` directory, the library files in `lib` directory and cmake package configuration files for package `zenohc` in `lib/cmake` directory. The library later can be loaded with CMake command `find_package(zenohc)`. Add dependency in CMakeLists.txt on target . - `zenohc::shared` for linking dynamic library - `zenohc::static` for linking static library - `zenohc::lib` for linking static or dynamic library depending on boolean variable `BUILD_SHARED_LIBS` . For `Debug` configuration suffix `d` is added to names of library files (libzenohc**d**.so). . 5. VScode . When zenoh-c project is opened in VSCode the build directory is set to `build` inside source tree (this is default behavior of Microsoft [CMake Tools]). The project build script detects this situation. In this case it places build files in `target` directory and `Cargo.toml` file (which is generated from `Cargo.toml.in`) into the root of source tree, as the rust developers used to and as the rust build tools expects by default. This behavior also can be explicitly enabled by setting `ZENOHC_BUILD_IN_SOURCE_TREE` variable to `TRUE`. . [CMake Tools]: https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=ms-vscode.cmake-tools . ## Building the Examples . The examples can be built in two ways. One is to select `examples` as a build target of zenoh-c project (assuming here that the current directory is side-by-side with zenoh-c directory): . ```bash cmake ../zenoh-c cmake --build . --target examples ``` . You may also use `--target ` if you wish to only build a specific example. . All build artifacts will be in the `target/release/examples` directory in this case. . The second way is to directly build `examples` as a root project: . ```bash cmake ../zenoh-c/examples cmake --build . ``` . In this case, the examples executables will be built in the current directory. . As a root project the `examples` project links `zenoh-c` with CMake's [add_subdirectory] command by default. There are also other ways to link `zenoh-c` - with [find_package] or [FetchContent]: . [add_subdirectory]: https://cmake.org/cmake/help/latest/command/add_subdirectory.html [find_package]: https://cmake.org/cmake/help/latest/command/find_package.html [FetchContent]: https://cmake.org/cmake/help/latest/module/FetchContent.html . Link with `zenoh-c` installed into default location in the system (with [find_package]): . ```bash cmake ../zenoh-c/examples -DZENOHC_SOURCE=PACKAGE ``` . Link with `zenoh-c` installed in `~/.local` directory: . ```bash cmake ../zenoh-c/examples -DZENOHC_SOURCE=PACKAGE -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=~/.local ``` . Download specific `zenoh-c` version from git with [FetchContent]: . ```bash cmake ../zenoh-c/examples -DZENOHC_SOURCE=GIT_URL -DZENOHC_GIT_TAG=0.11.0-rc ``` . See also `configure_include_project` function in [helpers.cmake] for more information . [helpers.cmake]: cmake/helpers.cmake . ## Running the Examples . ### Basic Pub/Sub Example . ```bash ./target/release/examples/z_sub ``` . ```bash ./target/release/examples/z_pub ``` . ### Queryable and Query Example . ```bash ./target/release/examples/z_queryable ``` . ```bash ./target/release/examples/z_get ``` . ### Running the Throughput Examples . ```bash ./target/release/examples/z_sub_thr ``` . ```bash ./target/release/examples/z_pub_thr ``` . ## Documentation Zenoh-c API documentation is available on [Read the Docs](https://zenoh-c.readthedocs.io/en/latest/index.html). . It can be built manually by performing the following steps: . ```bash cd docs doxygen sphinx-build -b html . _build/html ``` . ## Cross-Compilation . The following alternative options have been introduced to facilitate cross-compilation. > :warning: **WARNING** :warning: : Perhaps additional efforts are necessary, that will depend of your environment. . - `-DZENOHC_CARGO_CHANNEL="+nightly"|"+beta"|"+stable"`: refers to a specific rust toolchain release [[rust-channels](https://rust-lang.github.io/rustup/concepts/channels.html)] - `-DZENOHC_CARGO_FLAGS`: several optional flags can be used for compilation. [[cargo flags](https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/commands/cargo-build.html)] - `-DZENOHC_CUSTOM_TARGET`: specifies a crosscompilation target. Currently rust support several Tire-1, Tire-2 and Tire-3 targets [[targets](https://doc.rust-lang.org/nightly/rustc/platform-support.html)]. But keep in mind that zenoh-c only have support for following targets: `aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu`, `x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu`, `arm-unknown-linux-gnueabi` . Let's put all together in an example: Assuming you want to crosscompile for aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu. . 1. Install required packages - `sudo apt install gcc-aarch64-linux-gnu` 2. *(Only if you're using `nightly`) - `rustup component add rust-src --toolchain nightly` 3. Compile Zenoh-C. Assume that it's in `zenoh-c` directory. Notice that build in this sample is performed outside of source directory . ```bash export RUSTFLAGS="-Clinker=aarch64-linux-gnu-gcc -Car=aarch64-linux-gnu-ar" mkdir -p build && cd build cmake ../zenoh-c -DZENOHC_CARGO_CHANNEL="+nightly" -DZENOHC_CARGO_FLAGS="-Zbuild-std=std,panic_abort" -DZENOHC_CUSTOM_TARGET="aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu" -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=../aarch64/stage cmake --build . --target install ``` . Additionally you can use `RUSTFLAGS` environment variable for lead the compilation. . If all goes right the building files will be located at: `/path/to/zenoh-c/target/aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu/release` and release files will be located at `/path/to/zenoh-c/target/aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu/release` . ## Rust Version . The Rust version we use is defined in [rust-toolchain.toml](rust-toolchain.toml), which is `1.72.0`. There might be some memory mapping issue if you use the later version. . You can also specify the Rust version. . ```bash cmake ../zenoh-c -DZENOHC_CARGO_CHANNEL="+1.72.0" ``` . ## Zenoh features support (enabling/disabling protocols, etc) . It's necessary sometimes to build zenoh-c library with set of features different from default. For example: enable TCP and UDP only. This can be done by changing `ZENOHC_CARGO_FLAGS` parameter for cmake (notice ";" instead of space due to cmake peculiarities) . Available features can be found in [Cargo.toml](./Cargo.toml) ```bash cmake ../zenoh-c -DZENOHC_CARGO_FLAGS="--no-default-features;--features=transport_tcp,transport_udp" ``` . ## Versioning . Being a CMake project, zenoh-c is limited to the `MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH.TWEAK` version scheme [inherent to CMake](https://gitlab.kitware.com/cmake/cmake/-/issues/16716). However, zenoh-c also incorporates a Cargo package which cannot be versionned with the `MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH.TWEAK` version scheme (not SemVer compatible). Hence zenoh-c uses a one-to-one mapping between CMake versions and SemVer versions: . | CMake version | SemVer equivalent | Meaning | |-------------------------|-------------------|----------------------| | `1.2.3` | `1.2.3` | Release version | | `1.2.3.0` | `1.2.3-dev` | Developement version | | `1.2.3.x if x >= 1` | `1.2.3-pre.x` | Pre-release version | Vcs-Browser: https://github.com/eclipse-zenoh/zenoh-c Vcs-Git: https://github.com/eclipse-zenoh/zenoh-c Package: libzenohc Version: 1.0.0 Architecture: amd64 Maintainer: zenoh-dev@eclipse.org Installed-Size: 17353 Depends: libc6 (>= 2.29) Filename: 1.0.0/libzenohc_1.0.0_amd64.deb Size: 4261088 MD5sum: d82a2d5ba963c544736543ad7a2f738a SHA1: 4006604417b79d2be725046b350cbd5fb913dc0e SHA256: 24238799a5f43fb404816166accee86eedbf7398ce6818dc6ac2bec9abfc0ffe Section: net Priority: optional Homepage: http://zenoh.io Description: The Zenoh C API .

It may happen that some changes in git are not compatible with the most recent packaged Zenoh release (e.g. deb, docker, pip). We put particular effort in maintaining compatibility between the various git repositories in the Zenoh project. . 1. Make sure that [Rust](https://www.rust-lang.org) is available on your platform. Please check [here](https://www.rust-lang.org/tools/install) to learn how to install it. If you already have the Rust toolchain installed, make sure it is up-to-date with: . ```bash rustup update ``` . 2. Clone the [source] with `git`: . ```bash git clone https://github.com/eclipse-zenoh/zenoh-c.git ``` . [source]: https://github.com/eclipse-zenoh/zenoh-c . 3. Build: . Good CMake practice is to perform build outside of source directory, leaving source tree untouched. The examples below demonstrates this mode of building. On the other hand VScode by default creates build directory named 'build' inside source tree. In this case build script slightly changes its behavior. See more about it in section 'VScode'. . By default build configuration is set to `Release`, it's not necessary to add `-DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release` option on configuration step. But if your platform uses multi-config generator by default (this is the case on Windows), you may need to add option `--config Release` on build step. See more in CMake [build-configurations] documentation. Option`--config Release` is skipped in further examples for brewity. It's actually necessary for [Visual Studio generators] only. For [Ninja Multi-Config] the build script is able to select `Release` as the default configuration. . ```bash mkdir -p build && cd build cmake ../zenoh-c cmake --build . --config Release ``` . The generator to use is selected with option `-G`. If Ninja is installed on your system, adding `-GNinja` to `cmake` command can greatly speed up the build time: . ```bash cmake ../zenoh-c -GNinja cmake --build . ``` . Unstable api and/or shared memory support can be enabled by setting repectively `ZENOHC_BUILD_WITH_UNSTABLE_API` and `ZENOHC_BUILD_WITH_SHARED_MEMORY` Cmake flags to `true` during configuration step. . ```bash cmake -DZENOHC_BUILD_WITH_UNSTABLE_API=true -DZENOHC_BUILD_WITH_SHARED_MEMORY=true ../zenoh-c cmake --build . --config Release ``` . [build-configurations]: https://cmake.org/cmake/help/latest/manual/cmake-buildsystem.7.html#build-configurations [Visual Studio generators]: https://cmake.org/cmake/help/latest/manual/cmake-generators.7.html#id14 [Ninja Multi-Config]: https://cmake.org/cmake/help/latest/generator/Ninja%20Multi-Config.html . 4. Install: . To install zenoh-c library into system just build target `install`. You need root privileges to do it, as the default install location is `/usr/local`. . ```bash cmake --build . --target install ``` . If you want to install zenoh-c libraries locally, you can set the installation directory with `CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX` . ```bash cmake ../zenoh-c -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=~/.local cmake --build . --target install ``` . By default only dynamic library is built and installed. Set `BUILD_SHARED_LIBS` variable to false to build and install static library: . ```bash cmake ../zenoh-c -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=~/.local -DBUILD_SHARED_LIBS=FALSE cmake --build . --target install ``` . The result of installation is the header files in `include` directory, the library files in `lib` directory and cmake package configuration files for package `zenohc` in `lib/cmake` directory. The library later can be loaded with CMake command `find_package(zenohc)`. Add dependency in CMakeLists.txt on target . - `zenohc::shared` for linking dynamic library - `zenohc::static` for linking static library - `zenohc::lib` for linking static or dynamic library depending on boolean variable `BUILD_SHARED_LIBS` . For `Debug` configuration suffix `d` is added to names of library files (libzenohc**d**.so). . 5. VScode . When zenoh-c project is opened in VSCode the build directory is set to `build` inside source tree (this is default behavior of Microsoft [CMake Tools]). The project build script detects this situation. In this case it places build files in `target` directory and `Cargo.toml` file (which is generated from `Cargo.toml.in`) into the root of source tree, as the rust developers used to and as the rust build tools expects by default. This behavior also can be explicitly enabled by setting `ZENOHC_BUILD_IN_SOURCE_TREE` variable to `TRUE`. . [CMake Tools]: https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=ms-vscode.cmake-tools . ## Building the Examples . The examples can be built in two ways. One is to select `examples` as a build target of zenoh-c project (assuming here that the current directory is side-by-side with zenoh-c directory): . ```bash cmake ../zenoh-c cmake --build . --target examples ``` . You may also use `--target ` if you wish to only build a specific example. . All build artifacts will be in the `target/release/examples` directory in this case. . The second way is to directly build `examples` as a root project: . ```bash cmake ../zenoh-c/examples cmake --build . ``` . In this case, the examples executables will be built in the current directory. . As a root project the `examples` project links `zenoh-c` with CMake's [add_subdirectory] command by default. There are also other ways to link `zenoh-c` - with [find_package] or [FetchContent]: . [add_subdirectory]: https://cmake.org/cmake/help/latest/command/add_subdirectory.html [find_package]: https://cmake.org/cmake/help/latest/command/find_package.html [FetchContent]: https://cmake.org/cmake/help/latest/module/FetchContent.html . Link with `zenoh-c` installed into default location in the system (with [find_package]): . ```bash cmake ../zenoh-c/examples -DZENOHC_SOURCE=PACKAGE ``` . Link with `zenoh-c` installed in `~/.local` directory: . ```bash cmake ../zenoh-c/examples -DZENOHC_SOURCE=PACKAGE -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=~/.local ``` . Download specific `zenoh-c` version from git with [FetchContent]: . ```bash cmake ../zenoh-c/examples -DZENOHC_SOURCE=GIT_URL -DZENOHC_GIT_TAG=0.11.0-rc ``` . See also `configure_include_project` function in [helpers.cmake] for more information . [helpers.cmake]: cmake/helpers.cmake . ## Running the Examples . ### Basic Pub/Sub Example . ```bash ./target/release/examples/z_sub ``` . ```bash ./target/release/examples/z_pub ``` . ### Queryable and Query Example . ```bash ./target/release/examples/z_queryable ``` . ```bash ./target/release/examples/z_get ``` . ### Running the Throughput Examples . ```bash ./target/release/examples/z_sub_thr ``` . ```bash ./target/release/examples/z_pub_thr ``` . ## Documentation Zenoh-c API documentation is available on [Read the Docs](https://zenoh-c.readthedocs.io/en/latest/index.html). . It can be built manually by performing the following steps: . ```bash cd docs doxygen sphinx-build -b html . _build/html ``` . ## Cross-Compilation . The following alternative options have been introduced to facilitate cross-compilation. > :warning: **WARNING** :warning: : Perhaps additional efforts are necessary, that will depend of your environment. . - `-DZENOHC_CARGO_CHANNEL="+nightly"|"+beta"|"+stable"`: refers to a specific rust toolchain release [[rust-channels](https://rust-lang.github.io/rustup/concepts/channels.html)] - `-DZENOHC_CARGO_FLAGS`: several optional flags can be used for compilation. [[cargo flags](https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/commands/cargo-build.html)] - `-DZENOHC_CUSTOM_TARGET`: specifies a crosscompilation target. Currently rust support several Tire-1, Tire-2 and Tire-3 targets [[targets](https://doc.rust-lang.org/nightly/rustc/platform-support.html)]. But keep in mind that zenoh-c only have support for following targets: `aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu`, `x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu`, `arm-unknown-linux-gnueabi` . Let's put all together in an example: Assuming you want to crosscompile for aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu. . 1. Install required packages - `sudo apt install gcc-aarch64-linux-gnu` 2. *(Only if you're using `nightly`) - `rustup component add rust-src --toolchain nightly` 3. Compile Zenoh-C. Assume that it's in `zenoh-c` directory. Notice that build in this sample is performed outside of source directory . ```bash export RUSTFLAGS="-Clinker=aarch64-linux-gnu-gcc -Car=aarch64-linux-gnu-ar" mkdir -p build && cd build cmake ../zenoh-c -DZENOHC_CARGO_CHANNEL="+nightly" -DZENOHC_CARGO_FLAGS="-Zbuild-std=std,panic_abort" -DZENOHC_CUSTOM_TARGET="aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu" -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=../aarch64/stage cmake --build . --target install ``` . Additionally you can use `RUSTFLAGS` environment variable for lead the compilation. . If all goes right the building files will be located at: `/path/to/zenoh-c/target/aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu/release` and release files will be located at `/path/to/zenoh-c/target/aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu/release` . ## Rust Version . The Rust version we use is defined in [rust-toolchain.toml](rust-toolchain.toml), which is `1.72.0`. There might be some memory mapping issue if you use the later version. . You can also specify the Rust version. . ```bash cmake ../zenoh-c -DZENOHC_CARGO_CHANNEL="+1.72.0" ``` . ## Zenoh features support (enabling/disabling protocols, etc) . It's necessary sometimes to build zenoh-c library with set of features different from default. For example: enable TCP and UDP only. This can be done by changing `ZENOHC_CARGO_FLAGS` parameter for cmake (notice ";" instead of space due to cmake peculiarities) . Available features can be found in [Cargo.toml](./Cargo.toml) ```bash cmake ../zenoh-c -DZENOHC_CARGO_FLAGS="--no-default-features;--features=transport_tcp,transport_udp" ``` . ## Versioning . Being a CMake project, zenoh-c is limited to the `MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH.TWEAK` version scheme [inherent to CMake](https://gitlab.kitware.com/cmake/cmake/-/issues/16716). However, zenoh-c also incorporates a Cargo package which cannot be versionned with the `MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH.TWEAK` version scheme (not SemVer compatible). Hence zenoh-c uses a one-to-one mapping between CMake versions and SemVer versions: . | CMake version | SemVer equivalent | Meaning | |-------------------------|-------------------|----------------------| | `1.2.3` | `1.2.3` | Release version | | `1.2.3.0` | `1.2.3-dev` | Developement version | | `1.2.3.x if x >= 1` | `1.2.3-pre.x` | Pre-release version | Vcs-Browser: https://github.com/eclipse-zenoh/zenoh-c Vcs-Git: https://github.com/eclipse-zenoh/zenoh-c Package: libzenohc Version: 1.0.0 Architecture: arm64 Maintainer: zenoh-dev@eclipse.org Installed-Size: 15786 Filename: 1.0.0/libzenohc_1.0.0_arm64.deb Size: 3843292 MD5sum: bf0f0f8d27bb2ff8f3915ef01eeae1e0 SHA1: ffe231a2dce63e7ff8a7f062908cbd3d4ae15ac7 SHA256: 5ec838706ce56176cf23fe69ca8a2a292bac787b198d04124e8bd989627ae78c Section: net Priority: optional Homepage: http://zenoh.io Description: The Zenoh C API .

[build-configurations]: https://cmake.org/cmake/help/latest/manual/cmake-buildsystem.7.html#build-configurations [Visual Studio generators]: https://cmake.org/cmake/help/latest/manual/cmake-generators.7.html#id14 [Ninja Multi-Config]: https://cmake.org/cmake/help/latest/generator/Ninja%20Multi-Config.html . 4. Install: . To install zenoh-c library into system just build target `install`. You need root privileges to do it, as the default install location is `/usr/local`. . ```bash cmake --build . --target install ``` . If you want to install zenoh-c libraries locally, you can set the installation directory with `CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX` . ```bash cmake ../zenoh-c -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=~/.local cmake --build . --target install ``` . By default only dynamic library is built and installed. Set `BUILD_SHARED_LIBS` variable to false to build and install static library: . ```bash cmake ../zenoh-c -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=~/.local -DBUILD_SHARED_LIBS=FALSE cmake --build . --target install ``` . The result of installation is the header files in `include` directory, the library files in `lib` directory and cmake package configuration files for package `zenohc` in `lib/cmake` directory. The library later can be loaded with CMake command `find_package(zenohc)`. Add dependency in CMakeLists.txt on target . - `zenohc::shared` for linking dynamic library - `zenohc::static` for linking static library - `zenohc::lib` for linking static or dynamic library depending on boolean variable `BUILD_SHARED_LIBS` . For `Debug` configuration suffix `d` is added to names of library files (libzenohc**d**.so). . 5. VScode . When zenoh-c project is opened in VSCode the build directory is set to `build` inside source tree (this is default behavior of Microsoft [CMake Tools]). The project build script detects this situation. In this case it places build files in `target` directory and `Cargo.toml` file (which is generated from `Cargo.toml.in`) into the root of source tree, as the rust developers used to and as the rust build tools expects by default. This behavior also can be explicitly enabled by setting `ZENOHC_BUILD_IN_SOURCE_TREE` variable to `TRUE`. . [CMake Tools]: https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=ms-vscode.cmake-tools . ## Building the Examples . The examples can be built in two ways. One is to select `examples` as a build target of zenoh-c project (assuming here that the current directory is side-by-side with zenoh-c directory): . ```bash cmake ../zenoh-c cmake --build . --target examples ``` . You may also use `--target ` if you wish to only build a specific example. . All build artifacts will be in the `target/release/examples` directory in this case. . The second way is to directly build `examples` as a root project: . ```bash cmake ../zenoh-c/examples cmake --build . ``` . In this case, the examples executables will be built in the current directory. . As a root project the `examples` project links `zenoh-c` with CMake's [add_subdirectory] command by default. There are also other ways to link `zenoh-c` - with [find_package] or [FetchContent]: . [add_subdirectory]: https://cmake.org/cmake/help/latest/command/add_subdirectory.html [find_package]: https://cmake.org/cmake/help/latest/command/find_package.html [FetchContent]: https://cmake.org/cmake/help/latest/module/FetchContent.html . Link with `zenoh-c` installed into default location in the system (with [find_package]): . ```bash cmake ../zenoh-c/examples -DZENOHC_SOURCE=PACKAGE ``` . Link with `zenoh-c` installed in `~/.local` directory: . ```bash cmake ../zenoh-c/examples -DZENOHC_SOURCE=PACKAGE -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=~/.local ``` . Download specific `zenoh-c` version from git with [FetchContent]: . ```bash cmake ../zenoh-c/examples -DZENOHC_SOURCE=GIT_URL -DZENOHC_GIT_TAG=0.11.0-rc ``` . See also `configure_include_project` function in [helpers.cmake] for more information . [helpers.cmake]: cmake/helpers.cmake . ## Running the Examples . ### Basic Pub/Sub Example . ```bash ./target/release/examples/z_sub ``` . ```bash ./target/release/examples/z_pub ``` . ### Queryable and Query Example . ```bash ./target/release/examples/z_queryable ``` . ```bash ./target/release/examples/z_get ``` . ### Running the Throughput Examples . ```bash ./target/release/examples/z_sub_thr ``` . ```bash ./target/release/examples/z_pub_thr ``` . ## Documentation Zenoh-c API documentation is available on [Read the Docs](https://zenoh-c.readthedocs.io/en/latest/index.html). . It can be built manually by performing the following steps: . ```bash cd docs doxygen sphinx-build -b html . _build/html ``` . ## Cross-Compilation . The following alternative options have been introduced to facilitate cross-compilation. > :warning: **WARNING** :warning: : Perhaps additional efforts are necessary, that will depend of your environment. . - `-DZENOHC_CARGO_CHANNEL="+nightly"|"+beta"|"+stable"`: refers to a specific rust toolchain release [[rust-channels](https://rust-lang.github.io/rustup/concepts/channels.html)] - `-DZENOHC_CARGO_FLAGS`: several optional flags can be used for compilation. [[cargo flags](https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/commands/cargo-build.html)] - `-DZENOHC_CUSTOM_TARGET`: specifies a crosscompilation target. Currently rust support several Tire-1, Tire-2 and Tire-3 targets [[targets](https://doc.rust-lang.org/nightly/rustc/platform-support.html)]. But keep in mind that zenoh-c only have support for following targets: `aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu`, `x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu`, `arm-unknown-linux-gnueabi` . Let's put all together in an example: Assuming you want to crosscompile for aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu. . 1. Install required packages - `sudo apt install gcc-aarch64-linux-gnu` 2. *(Only if you're using `nightly`) - `rustup component add rust-src --toolchain nightly` 3. Compile Zenoh-C. Assume that it's in `zenoh-c` directory. Notice that build in this sample is performed outside of source directory . ```bash export RUSTFLAGS="-Clinker=aarch64-linux-gnu-gcc -Car=aarch64-linux-gnu-ar" mkdir -p build && cd build cmake ../zenoh-c -DZENOHC_CARGO_CHANNEL="+nightly" -DZENOHC_CARGO_FLAGS="-Zbuild-std=std,panic_abort" -DZENOHC_CUSTOM_TARGET="aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu" -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=../aarch64/stage cmake --build . --target install ``` . Additionally you can use `RUSTFLAGS` environment variable for lead the compilation. . If all goes right the building files will be located at: `/path/to/zenoh-c/target/aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu/release` and release files will be located at `/path/to/zenoh-c/target/aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu/release` . ## Rust Version . The Rust version we use is defined in [rust-toolchain.toml](rust-toolchain.toml), which is `1.72.0`. There might be some memory mapping issue if you use the later version. . You can also specify the Rust version. . ```bash cmake ../zenoh-c -DZENOHC_CARGO_CHANNEL="+1.72.0" ``` . ## Zenoh features support (enabling/disabling protocols, etc) . It's necessary sometimes to build zenoh-c library with set of features different from default. For example: enable TCP and UDP only. This can be done by changing `ZENOHC_CARGO_FLAGS` parameter for cmake (notice ";" instead of space due to cmake peculiarities) . Available features can be found in [Cargo.toml](./Cargo.toml) ```bash cmake ../zenoh-c -DZENOHC_CARGO_FLAGS="--no-default-features;--features=transport_tcp,transport_udp" ``` . ## Versioning . Being a CMake project, zenoh-c is limited to the `MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH.TWEAK` version scheme [inherent to CMake](https://gitlab.kitware.com/cmake/cmake/-/issues/16716). However, zenoh-c also incorporates a Cargo package which cannot be versionned with the `MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH.TWEAK` version scheme (not SemVer compatible). Hence zenoh-c uses a one-to-one mapping between CMake versions and SemVer versions: . | CMake version | SemVer equivalent | Meaning | |-------------------------|-------------------|----------------------| | `1.2.3` | `1.2.3` | Release version | | `1.2.3.0` | `1.2.3-dev` | Developement version | | `1.2.3.x if x >= 1` | `1.2.3-pre.x` | Pre-release version | Vcs-Browser: https://github.com/eclipse-zenoh/zenoh-c Vcs-Git: https://github.com/eclipse-zenoh/zenoh-c Package: libzenohc-dev Version: 1.0.0 Architecture: armel Maintainer: zenoh-dev@eclipse.org Installed-Size: 339 Depends: libzenohc (=1.0.0) Filename: 1.0.0/libzenohc-dev_1.0.0_armel.deb Size: 45496 MD5sum: 343d823560a73947e2ff9d1e2e6a6822 SHA1: bc23d8fdca17582a751247295539ee9f3121a1f8 SHA256: f5204f8ebe60c40c42161a07a0d0332b3d20f679fe5e9490d2a45336333622ca Section: net Priority: optional Homepage: http://zenoh.io Description: The Zenoh C API .

The Eclipse Zenoh: Zero Overhead Pub/sub, Store/Query and Compute. . Zenoh (pronounce _/zeno/_) unifies data in motion, data at rest and computations. It carefully blends traditional pub/sub with geo-distributed storages, queries and computations, while retaining a level of time and space efficiency that is well beyond any of the mainstream stacks. . Check the website [zenoh.io](http://zenoh.io) and the [roadmap](https://github.com/eclipse-zenoh/roadmap) for more detailed information. . ------------------------------- . # C API . This repository provides a C binding based on the main [Zenoh implementation written in Rust](https://github.com/eclipse-zenoh/zenoh). . ------------------------------- . ## How to build it . > :warning: **WARNING** :warning: : Zenoh and its ecosystem are under active development. When you build from git, make sure you also build from git any other Zenoh repository you plan to use (e.g. binding, plugin, backend, etc.). It may happen that some changes in git are not compatible with the most recent packaged Zenoh release (e.g. deb, docker, pip). We put particular effort in maintaining compatibility between the various git repositories in the Zenoh project. . 1. Make sure that [Rust](https://www.rust-lang.org) is available on your platform. Please check [here](https://www.rust-lang.org/tools/install) to learn how to install it. If you already have the Rust toolchain installed, make sure it is up-to-date with: . ```bash rustup update ``` . 2. Clone the [source] with `git`: . ```bash git clone https://github.com/eclipse-zenoh/zenoh-c.git ``` . [source]: https://github.com/eclipse-zenoh/zenoh-c . 3. Build: . Good CMake practice is to perform build outside of source directory, leaving source tree untouched. The examples below demonstrates this mode of building. On the other hand VScode by default creates build directory named 'build' inside source tree. In this case build script slightly changes its behavior. See more about it in section 'VScode'. . By default build configuration is set to `Release`, it's not necessary to add `-DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release` option on configuration step. But if your platform uses multi-config generator by default (this is the case on Windows), you may need to add option `--config Release` on build step. See more in CMake [build-configurations] documentation. Option`--config Release` is skipped in further examples for brewity. It's actually necessary for [Visual Studio generators] only. For [Ninja Multi-Config] the build script is able to select `Release` as the default configuration. . ```bash mkdir -p build && cd build cmake ../zenoh-c cmake --build . --config Release ``` . The generator to use is selected with option `-G`. If Ninja is installed on your system, adding `-GNinja` to `cmake` command can greatly speed up the build time: . ```bash cmake ../zenoh-c -GNinja cmake --build . ``` . Unstable api and/or shared memory support can be enabled by setting repectively `ZENOHC_BUILD_WITH_UNSTABLE_API` and `ZENOHC_BUILD_WITH_SHARED_MEMORY` Cmake flags to `true` during configuration step. . ```bash cmake -DZENOHC_BUILD_WITH_UNSTABLE_API=true -DZENOHC_BUILD_WITH_SHARED_MEMORY=true ../zenoh-c cmake --build . --config Release ``` .

This behavior also can be explicitly enabled by setting `ZENOHC_BUILD_IN_SOURCE_TREE` variable to `TRUE`. . [CMake Tools]: https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=ms-vscode.cmake-tools . ## Building the Examples . The examples can be built in two ways. One is to select `examples` as a build target of zenoh-c project (assuming here that the current directory is side-by-side with zenoh-c directory): . ```bash cmake ../zenoh-c cmake --build . --target examples ``` . You may also use `--target ` if you wish to only build a specific example. . All build artifacts will be in the `target/release/examples` directory in this case. . The second way is to directly build `examples` as a root project: . ```bash cmake ../zenoh-c/examples cmake --build . ``` . In this case, the examples executables will be built in the current directory. . As a root project the `examples` project links `zenoh-c` with CMake's [add_subdirectory] command by default. There are also other ways to link `zenoh-c` - with [find_package] or [FetchContent]: . [add_subdirectory]: https://cmake.org/cmake/help/latest/command/add_subdirectory.html [find_package]: https://cmake.org/cmake/help/latest/command/find_package.html [FetchContent]: https://cmake.org/cmake/help/latest/module/FetchContent.html . Link with `zenoh-c` installed into default location in the system (with [find_package]): . ```bash cmake ../zenoh-c/examples -DZENOHC_SOURCE=PACKAGE ``` . Link with `zenoh-c` installed in `~/.local` directory: . ```bash cmake ../zenoh-c/examples -DZENOHC_SOURCE=PACKAGE -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=~/.local ``` . Download specific `zenoh-c` version from git with [FetchContent]: . ```bash cmake ../zenoh-c/examples -DZENOHC_SOURCE=GIT_URL -DZENOHC_GIT_TAG=0.11.0-rc ``` . See also `configure_include_project` function in [helpers.cmake] for more information . [helpers.cmake]: cmake/helpers.cmake . ## Running the Examples . ### Basic Pub/Sub Example . ```bash ./target/release/examples/z_sub ``` . ```bash ./target/release/examples/z_pub ``` . ### Queryable and Query Example . ```bash ./target/release/examples/z_queryable ``` . ```bash ./target/release/examples/z_get ``` . ### Running the Throughput Examples . ```bash ./target/release/examples/z_sub_thr ``` . ```bash ./target/release/examples/z_pub_thr ``` . ## Documentation Zenoh-c API documentation is available on [Read the Docs](https://zenoh-c.readthedocs.io/en/latest/index.html). . It can be built manually by performing the following steps: . ```bash cd docs doxygen sphinx-build -b html . _build/html ``` . ## Cross-Compilation . The following alternative options have been introduced to facilitate cross-compilation. > :warning: **WARNING** :warning: : Perhaps additional efforts are necessary, that will depend of your environment. . - `-DZENOHC_CARGO_CHANNEL="+nightly"|"+beta"|"+stable"`: refers to a specific rust toolchain release [[rust-channels](https://rust-lang.github.io/rustup/concepts/channels.html)] - `-DZENOHC_CARGO_FLAGS`: several optional flags can be used for compilation. [[cargo flags](https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/commands/cargo-build.html)] - `-DZENOHC_CUSTOM_TARGET`: specifies a crosscompilation target. Currently rust support several Tire-1, Tire-2 and Tire-3 targets [[targets](https://doc.rust-lang.org/nightly/rustc/platform-support.html)]. But keep in mind that zenoh-c only have support for following targets: `aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu`, `x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu`, `arm-unknown-linux-gnueabi` . Let's put all together in an example: Assuming you want to crosscompile for aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu. . 1. Install required packages - `sudo apt install gcc-aarch64-linux-gnu` 2. *(Only if you're using `nightly`) - `rustup component add rust-src --toolchain nightly` 3. Compile Zenoh-C. Assume that it's in `zenoh-c` directory. Notice that build in this sample is performed outside of source directory . ```bash export RUSTFLAGS="-Clinker=aarch64-linux-gnu-gcc -Car=aarch64-linux-gnu-ar" mkdir -p build && cd build cmake ../zenoh-c -DZENOHC_CARGO_CHANNEL="+nightly" -DZENOHC_CARGO_FLAGS="-Zbuild-std=std,panic_abort" -DZENOHC_CUSTOM_TARGET="aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu" -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=../aarch64/stage cmake --build . --target install ``` . Additionally you can use `RUSTFLAGS` environment variable for lead the compilation. . If all goes right the building files will be located at: `/path/to/zenoh-c/target/aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu/release` and release files will be located at `/path/to/zenoh-c/target/aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu/release` . ## Rust Version . The Rust version we use is defined in [rust-toolchain.toml](rust-toolchain.toml), which is `1.72.0`. There might be some memory mapping issue if you use the later version. . You can also specify the Rust version. . ```bash cmake ../zenoh-c -DZENOHC_CARGO_CHANNEL="+1.72.0" ``` . ## Zenoh features support (enabling/disabling protocols, etc) . It's necessary sometimes to build zenoh-c library with set of features different from default. For example: enable TCP and UDP only. This can be done by changing `ZENOHC_CARGO_FLAGS` parameter for cmake (notice ";" instead of space due to cmake peculiarities) . Available features can be found in [Cargo.toml](./Cargo.toml) ```bash cmake ../zenoh-c -DZENOHC_CARGO_FLAGS="--no-default-features;--features=transport_tcp,transport_udp" ``` . ## Versioning . Being a CMake project, zenoh-c is limited to the `MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH.TWEAK` version scheme [inherent to CMake](https://gitlab.kitware.com/cmake/cmake/-/issues/16716). However, zenoh-c also incorporates a Cargo package which cannot be versionned with the `MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH.TWEAK` version scheme (not SemVer compatible). Hence zenoh-c uses a one-to-one mapping between CMake versions and SemVer versions: . | CMake version | SemVer equivalent | Meaning | |-------------------------|-------------------|----------------------| | `1.2.3` | `1.2.3` | Release version | | `1.2.3.0` | `1.2.3-dev` | Developement version | | `1.2.3.x if x >= 1` | `1.2.3-pre.x` | Pre-release version | Vcs-Browser: https://github.com/eclipse-zenoh/zenoh-c Vcs-Git: https://github.com/eclipse-zenoh/zenoh-c Package: libzenohc-dev Version: 1.0.0 Architecture: armhf Maintainer: zenoh-dev@eclipse.org Installed-Size: 339 Depends: libzenohc (=1.0.0) Filename: 1.0.0/libzenohc-dev_1.0.0_armhf.deb Size: 45496 MD5sum: deef5dfe89364931a961250b378fc8a9 SHA1: 977391d6bd4675abec65b3ada200511fdd2be724 SHA256: 83b68a7b27c049eee8efdf42818c51c0420df9246d330d1ce07327ee22098645 Section: net Priority: optional Homepage: http://zenoh.io Description: The Zenoh C API .

The Eclipse Zenoh: Zero Overhead Pub/sub, Store/Query and Compute. . Zenoh (pronounce _/zeno/_) unifies data in motion, data at rest and computations. It carefully blends traditional pub/sub with geo-distributed storages, queries and computations, while retaining a level of time and space efficiency that is well beyond any of the mainstream stacks. . Check the website [zenoh.io](http://zenoh.io) and the [roadmap](https://github.com/eclipse-zenoh/roadmap) for more detailed information. . ------------------------------- . # C API . This repository provides a C binding based on the main [Zenoh implementation written in Rust](https://github.com/eclipse-zenoh/zenoh). . ------------------------------- . ## How to build it . > :warning: **WARNING** :warning: : Zenoh and its ecosystem are under active development. When you build from git, make sure you also build from git any other Zenoh repository you plan to use (e.g. binding, plugin, backend, etc.). It may happen that some changes in git are not compatible with the most recent packaged Zenoh release (e.g. deb, docker, pip). We put particular effort in maintaining compatibility between the various git repositories in the Zenoh project. . 1. Make sure that [Rust](https://www.rust-lang.org) is available on your platform. Please check [here](https://www.rust-lang.org/tools/install) to learn how to install it. If you already have the Rust toolchain installed, make sure it is up-to-date with: . ```bash rustup update ``` . 2. Clone the [source] with `git`: . ```bash git clone https://github.com/eclipse-zenoh/zenoh-c.git ``` . [source]: https://github.com/eclipse-zenoh/zenoh-c . 3. Build: . Good CMake practice is to perform build outside of source directory, leaving source tree untouched. The examples below demonstrates this mode of building. On the other hand VScode by default creates build directory named 'build' inside source tree. In this case build script slightly changes its behavior. See more about it in section 'VScode'. . By default build configuration is set to `Release`, it's not necessary to add `-DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release` option on configuration step. But if your platform uses multi-config generator by default (this is the case on Windows), you may need to add option `--config Release` on build step. See more in CMake [build-configurations] documentation. Option`--config Release` is skipped in further examples for brewity. It's actually necessary for [Visual Studio generators] only. For [Ninja Multi-Config] the build script is able to select `Release` as the default configuration. . ```bash mkdir -p build && cd build cmake ../zenoh-c cmake --build . --config Release ``` . The generator to use is selected with option `-G`. If Ninja is installed on your system, adding `-GNinja` to `cmake` command can greatly speed up the build time: . ```bash cmake ../zenoh-c -GNinja cmake --build . ``` . Unstable api and/or shared memory support can be enabled by setting repectively `ZENOHC_BUILD_WITH_UNSTABLE_API` and `ZENOHC_BUILD_WITH_SHARED_MEMORY` Cmake flags to `true` during configuration step. . ```bash cmake -DZENOHC_BUILD_WITH_UNSTABLE_API=true -DZENOHC_BUILD_WITH_SHARED_MEMORY=true ../zenoh-c cmake --build . --config Release ``` . [build-configurations]: https://cmake.org/cmake/help/latest/manual/cmake-buildsystem.7.html#build-configurations [Visual Studio generators]: https://cmake.org/cmake/help/latest/manual/cmake-generators.7.html#id14 [Ninja Multi-Config]: https://cmake.org/cmake/help/latest/generator/Ninja%20Multi-Config.html . 4. Install: . To install zenoh-c library into system just build target `install`. You need root privileges to do it, as the default install location is `/usr/local`. . ```bash cmake --build . --target install ``` . If you want to install zenoh-c libraries locally, you can set the installation directory with `CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX` . ```bash cmake ../zenoh-c -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=~/.local cmake --build . --target install ``` . By default only dynamic library is built and installed. Set `BUILD_SHARED_LIBS` variable to false to build and install static library: . ```bash cmake ../zenoh-c -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=~/.local -DBUILD_SHARED_LIBS=FALSE cmake --build . --target install ``` . The result of installation is the header files in `include` directory, the library files in `lib` directory and cmake package configuration files for package `zenohc` in `lib/cmake` directory. The library later can be loaded with CMake command `find_package(zenohc)`. Add dependency in CMakeLists.txt on target . - `zenohc::shared` for linking dynamic library - `zenohc::static` for linking static library - `zenohc::lib` for linking static or dynamic library depending on boolean variable `BUILD_SHARED_LIBS` . For `Debug` configuration suffix `d` is added to names of library files (libzenohc**d**.so). . 5. VScode . When zenoh-c project is opened in VSCode the build directory is set to `build` inside source tree (this is default behavior of Microsoft [CMake Tools]). The project build script detects this situation. In this case it places build files in `target` directory and `Cargo.toml` file (which is generated from `Cargo.toml.in`) into the root of source tree, as the rust developers used to and as the rust build tools expects by default. This behavior also can be explicitly enabled by setting `ZENOHC_BUILD_IN_SOURCE_TREE` variable to `TRUE`. .
