# Eclipse Zenoh

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.

-------------------------------

## Getting Started

Zenoh is extremely easy to learn, the best place to master the fundamentals is our [getting started guide](https://zenoh.io/docs/getting-started/first-app/).

-------------------------------

## How to install it

To install the latest release of the Zenoh router (`zenohd`) and its default plugins (REST API plugin and Storages Manager plugin) you can do as follows:

### Manual installation (all platforms)

All release packages can be downloaded from:
- https://download.eclipse.org/zenoh/zenoh/latest/
All release packages can be downloaded from [https://download.eclipse.org/zenoh/zenoh/latest/](https://download.eclipse.org/zenoh/zenoh/latest/).

Each subdirectory has the name of the Rust target. See the platforms each target corresponds to on https://doc.rust-lang.org/stable/rustc/platform-support.html

## How to build it

> [!WARNING]
Expand All @@ -67,118 +75,117 @@ Then you can start run `zenohd`.
Install [Cargo and Rust](https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/getting-started/installation.html). Zenoh can be successfully compiled with Rust stable (>= 1.71.0), so no special configuration is required from your side. If you already have the Rust toolchain installed, make sure it is up-to-date with:

```bash
$ rustup update
rustup update
```

To build Zenoh, just type the following command after having followed the previous instructions:

```bash
$ cargo build --release --all-targets
cargo build --release --all-targets
```

Zenoh's router is built as `target/release/zenohd`. All the examples are built into the `target/release/examples` directory. They can all work in peer-to-peer, or interconnected via the zenoh router.

> [!NOTE]
> **Windows users**: to properly execute the commands below in PowerShell you need to escape `"` characters as `\"`.

- **put/store/get**
- run the Zenoh router with a memory storage:
`./target/release/zenohd --cfg='plugins/storage_manager/storages/demo:{key_expr:"demo/example/**",volume:"memory"}'`
- in another shell run: `./target/release/examples/z_put`
- then run `./target/release/examples/z_get`
- the get should receive the stored publication.

- **REST API using `curl` tool**
- run the Zenoh router with a memory storage:
`./target/release/zenohd --cfg='plugins/storage_manager/storages/demo:{key_expr:"demo/example/**",volume:"memory"}'`
- in another shell, do a publication via the REST API:
`curl -X PUT -d '"Hello World!"' http://localhost:8000/demo/example/test`
- get it back via the REST API:
`curl http://localhost:8000/demo/example/test`

- **router admin space via the REST API**
- run the Zenoh router with permission to perform config changes via the admin space, and with a memory storage:
`./target/release/zenohd --adminspace-permissions=rw --cfg='plugins/storage_manager/storages/demo:{key_expr:"demo/example/**",volume:"memory"}'`
- in another shell, get info of the zenoh router via the zenoh admin space:
`curl http://localhost:8000/@/router/local`
- get the volumes of the router (only memory by default):
`curl 'http://localhost:8000/@/router/local/**/volumes/*'`
- get the storages of the local router (the memory storage configured at startup on '/demo/example/**' should be present):
`curl 'http://localhost:8000/@/router/local/**/storages/*'`
- add another memory storage on `/demo/mystore/**`:
`curl -X PUT -H 'content-type:application/json' -d '{"key_expr":"demo/mystore/**","volume":"memory"}' http://localhost:8000/@/router/local/config/plugins/storage_manager/storages/mystore`
- check it has been created:
`curl 'http://localhost:8000/@/router/local/**/storages/*'`

### Configuration options

A Zenoh configuration file can be provided via CLI to all Zenoh examples and the Zenoh router.

* `-c, --config <FILE>`: a [JSON5](https://json5.org) configuration file. [DEFAULT_CONFIG.json5](DEFAULT_CONFIG.json5) shows the schema of this file and the available options.

* `-c, --config <FILE>`: a [JSON5](https://json5.org) configuration file. [DEFAULT_CONFIG.json5](DEFAULT_CONFIG.json5) shows the schema of this file and the available options.

See other examples of Zenoh usage in [examples/](examples)

> [!NOTE]
> **Zenoh Runtime Configuration**: Starting from version 0.11.0-rc, Zenoh allows for configuring the number of worker threads and other advanced options of the runtime. For guidance on utilizing it, please refer to the [doc](https://docs.rs/zenoh-runtime/latest/zenoh_runtime/enum.ZRuntime.html).

## Zenoh router command line arguments
`zenohd` accepts the following arguments:

* `--adminspace-permissions <[r|w|rw|none]>`: Configure the read and/or write permissions on the admin space. Default is read only.
* `-c, --config <FILE>`: a [JSON5](https://json5.org) configuration file. [DEFAULT_CONFIG.json5](DEFAULT_CONFIG.json5) shows the schema of this file. All properties of this configuration are optional, so you may not need such a large configuration for your use-case.
* `--cfg <KEY>:<VALUE>`: allows you to change specific parts of the configuration right after it has been constructed. VALUE must be a valid JSON5 value, and key must be a path through the configuration file, where each element is separated by a `/`. When inserting in parts of the config that are arrays, you may use indexes, or may use `+` to indicate that you want to append your value to the array. `--cfg` passed values will always override any previously existing value for their key in the configuration.
* `-l, --listen <ENDPOINT>...`: An endpoint on which this router will listen for incoming sessions.
Repeat this option to open several listeners. By default, `tcp/[::]:7447` is used. The following endpoints are currently supported:
- TCP: `tcp/<host_name_or_IPv4_or_IPv6>:<port>`
- UDP: `udp/<host_name_or_IPv4_or_IPv6>:<port>`
- [TCP+TLS](https://zenoh.io/docs/manual/tls/): `tls/<host_name>:<port>`
- [QUIC](https://zenoh.io/docs/manual/quic/): `quic/<host_name>:<port>`
* `-e, --connect <ENDPOINT>...`: An endpoint this router will try to connect to. Repeat this option to connect to several peers or routers.
* `--no-multicast-scouting`: By default zenohd replies to multicast scouting messages for being discovered by peers and clients.
This option disables this feature.
* `-i, --id <hex_string>`: The identifier (as an hexadecimal string - e.g.: A0B23...) that zenohd must use.
**WARNING**: this identifier must be unique in the system! If not set, a random unsigned 128bit integer will be used.
* `--no-timestamp`: By default zenohd adds a HLC-generated Timestamp to each routed Data if there isn't already one.
This option disables this feature.
* `-P, --plugin [<PLUGIN_NAME> | <PLUGIN_NAME>:<LIBRARY_PATH>]...`: A [plugin](https://zenoh.io/docs/manual/plugins/) that must be loaded. Accepted values:
- a plugin name; zenohd will search for a library named `libzenoh_plugin_<name>.so` on Unix, `libzenoh_plugin_<PLUGIN_NAME>.dylib` on MacOS or `zenoh_plugin_<PLUGIN_NAME>.dll` on Windows.
- `"<PLUGIN_NAME>:<LIBRARY_PATH>"`; the plugin will be loaded from library file at `<LIBRARY_PATH>`.

Repeat this option to load several plugins.
* `--plugin-search-dir <DIRECTORY>...`: A directory where to search for [plugins](https://zenoh.io/docs/manual/plugins/) libraries to load.
Repeat this option to specify several search directories'. By default, the plugins libraries will be searched in:
`'/usr/local/lib:/usr/lib:~/.zenoh/lib:.'`
* `--rest-http-port <rest-http-port>`: Configures the [REST plugin](https://zenoh.io/docs/manual/plugin-http/)'s HTTP port. Accepted values:
- a port number
- a string with format `<local_ip>:<port_number>` (to bind the HTTP server to a specific interface)
- `"None"` to deactivate the REST plugin

If not specified, the REST plugin will be active on any interface (`[::]`) and port `8000`.
