Abstract name service traits for rust

Abstract Name Service

http://tailhook.github.io/abstract-ns

This rust crate provides just abstract traits which may be used to build interoperable implementations of name dicovery.

We want abstract_ns to have implementations not only for DNS-based name discovery but also Zookeeper, Eureka, Etcd, Consul, and whatever other thing you might imagine. All of them easily configured and interchangeable.

Features:

• Defines what is a name and what is a result of service discovery
• Uses futures-rs for asynchronous stuff
• Has interface to receive updates (name changes)
• Allows some kind of name service routing, i.e. has a way to specify different resolvers for different names, for example: serve *.consul from local consul, other names from conventional DNS servers.

This repository also contains the following crates:

• ns-std-threaded a name resolution implementation that uses stdlib resolver running in a thread pool
• ns-dns-tokio an pure-rust implementation that uses domain crate to resolve domains asynchronously in tokio-core main loop

Note: abstract-ns v0.2 is very different product than v0.1
