ZMQ_SOCKET(3) 0MQ Manual ZMQ_SOCKET(3) NAME zmq_socket - create 0MQ socket SYNOPSIS void *zmq_socket (void *context, int type); DESCRIPTION The zmq_socket() function shall create a 0MQ socket within the specified context and return an opaque handle to the newly created socket. The type argument specifies the socket type, which determines the semantics of communication over the socket. The newly created socket is initially unbound, and not associated with any endpoints. In order to establish a message flow a socket must first be connected to at least one endpoint with zmq_connect(3), or at least one endpoint must be created for accepting incoming connections with zmq_bind(3). Key differences to conventional sockets. Generally speaking, conventional sockets present a synchronous interface to either connection-oriented reliable byte streams (SOCK_STREAM), or connection-less unreliable datagrams (SOCK_DGRAM). In comparison, 0MQ sockets present an abstraction of an asynchronous message queue, with the exact queueing semantics depending on the socket type in use. Where conventional sockets transfer streams of bytes or discrete datagrams, 0MQ sockets transfer discrete messages. 0MQ sockets being asynchronous means that the timings of the physical connection setup and tear down, reconnect and effective delivery are transparent to the user and organized by 0MQ itself. Further, messages may be queued in the event that a peer is unavailable to receive them. Conventional sockets allow only strict one-to-one (two peers), many-to-one (many clients, one server), or in some cases one-to-many (multicast) relationships. With the exception of ZMQ_PAIR and ZMQ_CHANNEL, 0MQ sockets may be connected to multiple endpoints using zmq_connect(), while simultaneously accepting incoming connections from multiple endpoints bound to the socket using zmq_bind(), thus allowing many-to-many relationships. Thread safety. 0MQ has both thread safe socket type and not thread safe socket types. Applications MUST NOT use a not thread safe socket from multiple threads under any circumstances. Doing so results in undefined behaviour. Following are the thread safe sockets: * ZMQ_CLIENT * ZMQ_SERVER * ZMQ_DISH * ZMQ_RADIO * ZMQ_SCATTER * ZMQ_GATHER * ZMQ_PEER * ZMQ_CHANNEL Socket types. The following sections present the socket types defined by 0MQ, grouped by the general messaging pattern which is built from related socket types. Client-server pattern The client-server pattern is used to allow a single ZMQ_SERVER server talk to one or more ZMQ_CLIENT clients. The client always starts the conversation, after which either peer can send messages asynchronously, to the other. The client-server pattern is formally defined by http://rfc.zeromq.org/spec:41. Note Server-client is still in draft phase. ZMQ_CLIENT A ZMQ_CLIENT socket talks to a ZMQ_SERVER socket. Either peer can connect, though the usual and recommended model is to bind the ZMQ_SERVER and connect the ZMQ_CLIENT. If the ZMQ_CLIENT socket has established a connection, zmq_send(3) will accept messages, queue them, and send them as rapidly as the network allows. The outgoing buffer limit is defined by the high water mark for the socket. If the outgoing buffer is full, or, for connection-oriented transports, if the ZMQ_IMMEDIATE option is set and there is no connected peer, zmq_send(3) will block. The ZMQ_CLIENT socket will not drop messages. When a ZMQ_CLIENT socket is connected to multiple ZMQ_SERVER sockets, outgoing messages are distributed between connected peers on a round-robin basis. Likewise, the ZMQ_CLIENT socket receives messages fairly from each connected peer. This usage is sensible only for stateless protocols. ZMQ_CLIENT sockets are threadsafe and can be used from multiple threads at the same time. Note that replies from a ZMQ_SERVER socket will go to the first client thread that calls zmq_msg_recv(3). If you need to get replies back to the originating thread, use one ZMQ_CLIENT socket per thread. Note ZMQ_CLIENT sockets are threadsafe. They do not accept the ZMQ_SNDMORE option on sends not ZMQ_RCVMORE on receives. This limits them to single part data. The intention is to extend the API to allow scatter/gather of multi-part data. Table 1. Summary of ZMQ_CLIENT characteristics Compatible peer sockets ZMQ_SERVER Direction Bidirectional Send/receive pattern Unrestricted Outgoing routing strategy Round-robin Incoming routing strategy Fair-queued Action in mute state Block ZMQ_SERVER A ZMQ_SERVER socket talks to a set of ZMQ_CLIENT sockets. A ZMQ_SERVER socket can only reply to an incoming message: the ZMQ_CLIENT peer must always initiate a conversation. Each received message has a routing_id that is a 32-bit unsigned integer. The application can fetch this with zmq_msg_routing_id(3). To send a message to a given ZMQ_CLIENT peer the application must set the peer's routing_id on the message, using zmq_msg_set_routing_id(3). If the routing_id is not specified, or does not refer to a connected client peer, the send call will fail with EHOSTUNREACH. If the outgoing buffer for the client peer is full, the send call shall block, unless ZMQ_DONTWAIT is used in the send, in which case it shall fail with EAGAIN. The ZMQ_SERVER socket shall not drop messages in any case. Note ZMQ_SERVER sockets are threadsafe. They do not accept the ZMQ_SNDMORE option on sends not ZMQ_RCVMORE on receives. This limits them to single part data. The intention is to extend the API to allow scatter/gather of multi-part data. Table 2. Summary of ZMQ_SERVER characteristics Compatible peer sockets ZMQ_CLIENT Direction Bidirectional Send/receive pattern Unrestricted Outgoing routing strategy See text Incoming routing strategy Fair-queued Action in mute state Return EAGAIN Radio-dish pattern The radio-dish pattern is used for one-to-many distribution of data from a single publisher to multiple subscribers in a fan out fashion. Radio-dish is using groups (vs Pub-sub topics), Dish sockets can join a group and each message sent by Radio sockets belong to a group. Groups are null terminated strings limited to 16 chars length (including null). The intention is to increase the length to 40 chars (including null). The encoding of groups shall be UTF8. Groups are matched using exact matching (vs prefix matching of PubSub). Note Radio-dish is still in draft phase. ZMQ_RADIO A socket of type ZMQ_RADIO is used by a publisher to distribute data. Each message belong to a group, a group is specified with zmq_msg_set_group(3). Messages are distributed to all members of a group. The zmq_recv(3) function is not implemented for this socket type. When a ZMQ_RADIO socket enters the mute state due to having reached the high water mark for a subscriber, then any messages that would be sent to the subscriber in question shall instead be dropped until the mute state ends. The zmq_send() function shall never block for this socket type. Note ZMQ_RADIO sockets are threadsafe. They do not accept the ZMQ_SNDMORE option on sends. This limits them to single part data. Table 3. Summary of ZMQ_RADIO characteristics Compatible peer sockets ZMQ_DISH Direction Unidirectional Send/receive pattern Send only Incoming routing strategy N/A Outgoing routing strategy Fan out Action in mute state Drop ZMQ_DISH A socket of type ZMQ_DISH is used by a subscriber to subscribe to groups distributed by a radio. Initially a ZMQ_DISH socket is not subscribed to any groups, use zmq_join(3) to join a group. To get the group the message belong to call zmq_msg_group(3). The zmq_send() function is not implemented for this socket type. Note ZMQ_DISH sockets are threadsafe. They do not accept ZMQ_RCVMORE on receives. This limits them to single part data. Table 4. Summary of ZMQ_DISH characteristics Compatible peer sockets ZMQ_RADIO Direction Unidirectional Send/receive pattern Receive only Incoming routing strategy Fair-queued Outgoing routing strategy N/A Publish-subscribe pattern The publish-subscribe pattern is used for one-to-many distribution of data from a single publisher to multiple subscribers in a fan out fashion. The publish-subscribe pattern is formally defined by http://rfc.zeromq.org/spec:29. ZMQ_PUB A socket of type ZMQ_PUB is used by a publisher to distribute data. Messages sent are distributed in a fan out fashion to all connected peers. The zmq_recv(3) function is not implemented for this socket type. When a ZMQ_PUB socket enters the mute state due to having reached the high water mark for a subscriber, then any messages that would be sent to the subscriber in question shall instead be dropped until the mute state ends. The zmq_send() function shall never block for this socket type. Table 5. Summary of ZMQ_PUB characteristics Compatible peer sockets ZMQ_SUB, ZMQ_XSUB Direction Unidirectional Send/receive pattern Send only Incoming routing strategy N/A Outgoing routing strategy Fan out Action in mute state Drop ZMQ_SUB A socket of type ZMQ_SUB is used by a subscriber to subscribe to data distributed by a publisher. Initially a ZMQ_SUB socket is not subscribed to any messages, use the ZMQ_SUBSCRIBE option of zmq_setsockopt(3) to specify which messages to subscribe to. The zmq_send() function is not implemented for this socket type. Table 6. Summary of ZMQ_SUB characteristics Compatible peer sockets ZMQ_PUB, ZMQ_XPUB Direction Unidirectional Send/receive pattern Receive only Incoming routing strategy Fair-queued Outgoing routing strategy N/A ZMQ_XPUB Same as ZMQ_PUB except that you can receive subscriptions from the peers in form of incoming messages. Subscription message is a byte 1 (for subscriptions) or byte 0 (for unsubscriptions) followed by the subscription body. Messages without a sub/unsub prefix are also received, but have no effect on subscription status. Table 7.

Subscription message is a byte 1 (for subscriptions) or byte 0 (for unsubscriptions) followed by the subscription body. Messages without a sub/unsub prefix may also be sent, but have no effect on subscription status. Table 8.

Data always flows down the pipeline, and each stage of the pipeline is connected to at least one node. When a pipeline stage is connected to multiple nodes data is round-robined among all connected nodes. The pipeline pattern is formally defined by http://rfc.zeromq.org/spec:30. ZMQ_PUSH A socket of type ZMQ_PUSH is used by a pipeline node to send messages to downstream pipeline nodes. Messages are round-robined to all connected downstream nodes. The zmq_recv() function is not implemented for this socket type. When a ZMQ_PUSH socket enters the mute state due to having reached the high water mark for all downstream nodes, or, for connection-oriented transports, if the ZMQ_IMMEDIATE option is set and there are no downstream nodes at all, then any zmq_send(3) operations on the socket shall block until the mute state ends or at least one downstream node becomes available for sending; messages are not discarded. Table 9. Summary of ZMQ_PUSH characteristics Compatible peer sockets ZMQ_PULL Direction Unidirectional Send/receive pattern Send only Incoming routing strategy N/A Outgoing routing strategy Round-robin Action in mute state Block ZMQ_PULL A socket of type ZMQ_PULL is used by a pipeline node to receive messages from upstream pipeline nodes. Messages are fair-queued from among all connected upstream nodes. The zmq_send() function is not implemented for this socket type. Table 10. Summary of ZMQ_PULL characteristics Compatible peer sockets ZMQ_PUSH Direction Unidirectional Send/receive pattern Receive only Incoming routing strategy Fair-queued Outgoing routing strategy N/A Action in mute state Block Scatter-gather pattern The scatter-gather pattern is the thread-safe version of the pipeline pattern. The scatter-gather pattern is used for distributing data to _nodes_ arranged in a pipeline. Data always flows down the pipeline, and each stage of the pipeline is connected to at least one _node_. When a pipeline stage is connected to multiple _nodes_ data is round-robined among all connected _nodes_. ZMQ_SCATTER ^^^^^^^^ A socket of type 'ZMQ_SCATTER' is used by a scatter-gather _node_ to send messages to downstream scatter-gather _nodes_. Messages are round-robined to all connected downstream _nodes_. The _zmq_recv()_ function is not implemented for this socket type. When a 'ZMQ_SCATTER' socket enters the 'mute' state due to having reached the high water mark for all downstream _nodes_, or, for connection-oriented transports, if the ZMQ_IMMEDIATE option is set and there are no downstream _nodes_ at all, then any linkzmq:zmq_send[3] operations on the socket shall block until the mute state ends or at least one downstream _node_ becomes available for sending; messages are not discarded. NOTE: 'ZMQ_SCATTER' sockets are threadsafe. They do not accept ZMQ_RCVMORE on receives. This limits them to single part data.

Messages are fair-queued from among all connected upstream _nodes_. The _zmq_send()_ function is not implemented for this socket type. NOTE: 'ZMQ_GATHER' sockets are threadsafe. They do not accept ZMQ_RCVMORE on receives. This limits them to single part data. [horizontal] .Summary of ZMQ_GATHER characteristics Compatible peer sockets:: 'ZMQ_GATHER' Direction:: Unidirectional Send/receive pattern:: Receive only Incoming routing strategy:: Fair-queued Outgoing routing strategy:: N/A Action in mute state:: Block Exclusive pair pattern The exclusive pair pattern is used to connect a peer to precisely one other peer. This pattern is used for inter-thread communication across the inproc transport. The exclusive pair pattern is formally defined by http://rfc.zeromq.org/spec:31. ZMQ_PAIR A socket of type ZMQ_PAIR can only be connected to a single peer at any one time. No message routing or filtering is performed on messages sent over a ZMQ_PAIR socket. When a ZMQ_PAIR socket enters the mute state due to having reached the high water mark for the connected peer, or, for connection-oriented transports, if the ZMQ_IMMEDIATE option is set and there is no connected peer, then any zmq_send(3) operations on the socket shall block until the peer becomes available for sending; messages are not discarded. While ZMQ_PAIR sockets can be used over transports other than zmq_inproc(7), their inability to auto-reconnect coupled with the fact new incoming connections will be terminated while any previous connections (including ones in a closing state) exist makes them unsuitable for TCP in most cases. Note ZMQ_PAIR sockets are designed for inter-thread communication across the zmq_inproc(7) transport and do not implement functionality such as auto-reconnection. Table 11. Summary of ZMQ_PAIR characteristics Compatible peer sockets ZMQ_PAIR Direction Bidirectional Send/receive pattern Unrestricted Incoming routing strategy N/A Outgoing routing strategy N/A Action in mute state Block Peer-to-peer pattern The peer-to-peer pattern is used to connect a peer to multiple peers. Peer can both connect and bind and mix both of them with the same socket. The peer-to-peer pattern is useful to build peer-to-peer networks (e.g zyre, bitcoin, torrent) where a peer can both accept connections from other peers or connect to them. Note Peer-to-peer is still in draft phase. ZMQ_PEER A ZMQ_PEER socket talks to a set of ZMQ_PEER sockets. To connect and fetch the routing_id of the peer use zmq_connect_peer(3). Each received message has a routing_id that is a 32-bit unsigned integer. The application can fetch this with zmq_msg_routing_id(3). To send a message to a given ZMQ_PEER peer the application must set the peer's routing_id on the message, using zmq_msg_set_routing_id(3). If the routing_id is not specified, or does not refer to a connected client peer, the send call will fail with EHOSTUNREACH. If the outgoing buffer for the peer is full, the send call shall block, unless ZMQ_DONTWAIT is used in the send, in which case it shall fail with EAGAIN. The ZMQ_PEER socket shall not drop messages in any case. Note ZMQ_PEER sockets are threadsafe. They do not accept the ZMQ_SNDMORE option on sends not ZMQ_RCVMORE on receives. This limits them to single part data. Table 12. Summary of ZMQ_PEER characteristics Compatible peer sockets ZMQ_PEER Direction Bidirectional Send/receive pattern Unrestricted Outgoing routing strategy See text Incoming routing strategy Fair-queued Action in mute state Return EAGAIN Channel pattern The channel pattern is the thread-safe version of the exclusive pair pattern. The channel pattern is used to connect a peer to precisely one other peer. This pattern is used for inter-thread communication across the inproc transport. NOTE: Channel is still in draft phase. ZMQ_CHANNEL ^^^^^^^^ A socket of type 'ZMQ_CHANNEL' can only be connected to a single peer at any one time. No message routing or filtering is performed on messages sent over a 'ZMQ_CHANNEL' socket. When a 'ZMQ_CHANNEL' socket enters the 'mute' state due to having reached the high water mark for the connected peer, or, for connection-oriented transports, if the ZMQ_IMMEDIATE option is set and there is no connected peer, then any linkzmq:zmq_send[3] operations on the socket shall block until the peer becomes available for sending; messages are not discarded. While 'ZMQ_CHANNEL' sockets can be used over transports other than linkzmq:zmq_inproc[7], their inability to auto-reconnect coupled with the fact new incoming connections will be terminated while any previous connections (including ones in a closing state) exist makes them unsuitable for TCP in most cases. NOTE: 'ZMQ_CHANNEL' sockets are designed for inter-thread communication across the linkzmq:zmq_inproc[7] transport and do not implement functionality such as auto-reconnection. NOTE: 'ZMQ_CHANNEL' sockets are threadsafe. They do not accept ZMQ_RCVMORE on receives. This limits them to single part data. [horizontal] .Summary of ZMQ_CHANNEL characteristics Compatible peer sockets:: 'ZMQ_CHANNEL' Direction:: Bidirectional Send/receive pattern:: Unrestricted Incoming routing strategy:: N/A Outgoing routing strategy:: N/A Action in mute state:: Block Native Pattern The native pattern is used for communicating with TCP peers and allows asynchronous requests and replies in either direction. ZMQ_STREAM A socket of type ZMQ_STREAM is used to send and receive TCP data from a non-0MQ peer, when using the tcp:// transport. A ZMQ_STREAM socket can act as client and/or server, sending and/or receiving TCP data asynchronously. When receiving TCP data, a ZMQ_STREAM socket shall prepend a message part containing the routing id of the originating peer to the message before passing it to the application. Messages received are fair-queued from among all connected peers. When sending TCP data, a ZMQ_STREAM socket shall remove the first part of the message and use it to determine the routing id of the peer the message shall be routed to, and unroutable messages shall cause an EHOSTUNREACH or EAGAIN error. To open a connection to a server, use the zmq_connect call, and then fetch the socket routing id using the zmq_getsockopt call with the ZMQ_ROUTING_ID option. To close a specific connection, send the routing id frame followed by a zero-length message (see EXAMPLE section). When a connection is made, a zero-length message will be received by the application. Similarly, when the peer disconnects (or the connection is lost), a zero-length message will be received by the application. You must send one routing id frame followed by one data frame. The ZMQ_SNDMORE flag is required for routing id frames but is ignored on data frames. Table 13. Summary of ZMQ_STREAM characteristics Compatible peer sockets none. Direction Bidirectional Send/receive pattern Unrestricted Outgoing routing strategy See text Incoming routing strategy Fair-queued Action in mute state EAGAIN Request-reply pattern The request-reply pattern is used for sending requests from a ZMQ_REQ client to one or more ZMQ_REP services, and receiving subsequent replies to each request sent. The request-reply pattern is formally defined by http://rfc.zeromq.org/spec:28. ZMQ_REQ A socket of type ZMQ_REQ is used by a client to send requests to and receive replies from a service. This socket type allows only an alternating sequence of zmq_send(request) and subsequent zmq_recv(reply) calls. Each request sent is round-robined among all services, and each reply received is matched with the last issued request. For connection-oriented transports, If the ZMQ_IMMEDIATE option is set and there is no service available, then any send operation on the socket shall block until at least one service becomes available. The REQ socket shall not discard messages. Table 14.

Outgoing routing strategy Round-robin Incoming routing strategy Last peer Action in mute state Block ZMQ_REP A socket of type ZMQ_REP is used by a service to receive requests from and send replies to a client. This socket type allows only an alternating sequence of zmq_recv(request) and subsequent zmq_send(reply) calls. Each request received is fair-queued from among all clients, and each reply sent is routed to the client that issued the last request. If the original requester does not exist any more the reply is silently discarded. Table 15. Summary of ZMQ_REP characteristics Compatible peer sockets ZMQ_REQ, ZMQ_DEALER Direction Bidirectional Send/receive pattern Receive, Send, Receive, Send, ... Incoming routing strategy Fair-queued Outgoing routing strategy Last peer ZMQ_DEALER A socket of type ZMQ_DEALER is an advanced pattern used for extending request/reply sockets. Each message sent is round-robined among all connected peers, and each message received is fair-queued from all connected peers. When a ZMQ_DEALER socket enters the mute state due to having reached the high water mark for all peers, or, for connection-oriented transports, if the ZMQ_IMMEDIATE option is set and there are no peers at all, then any zmq_send(3) operations on the socket shall block until the mute state ends or at least one peer becomes available for sending; messages are not discarded. When a ZMQ_DEALER socket is connected to a ZMQ_REP socket each message sent must consist of an empty message part, the delimiter, followed by one or more body parts. Table 16. Summary of ZMQ_DEALER characteristics Compatible peer sockets ZMQ_ROUTER, ZMQ_REP, ZMQ_DEALER Direction Bidirectional Send/receive pattern Unrestricted Outgoing routing strategy Round-robin Incoming routing strategy Fair-queued Action in mute state Block ZMQ_ROUTER A socket of type ZMQ_ROUTER is an advanced socket type used for extending request/reply sockets. When receiving messages a ZMQ_ROUTER socket shall prepend a message part containing the routing id of the originating peer to the message before passing it to the application. Messages received are fair-queued from among all connected peers. When sending messages a ZMQ_ROUTER socket shall remove the first part of the message and use it to determine the _routing id _ of the peer the message shall be routed to. If the peer does not exist anymore, or has never existed, the message shall be silently discarded. However, if ZMQ_ROUTER_MANDATORY socket option is set to 1, the socket shall fail with EHOSTUNREACH in both cases. When a ZMQ_ROUTER socket enters the mute state due to having reached the high water mark for all peers, then any messages sent to the socket shall be dropped until the mute state ends. Likewise, any messages routed to a peer for which the individual high water mark has been reached shall also be dropped. If, ZMQ_ROUTER_MANDATORY is set to 1, the socket shall block or return EAGAIN in both cases. When a ZMQ_ROUTER socket has ZMQ_ROUTER_MANDATORY flag set to 1, the socket shall generate ZMQ_POLLIN events upon reception of messages from one or more peers. Likewise, the socket shall generate ZMQ_POLLOUT events when at least one message can be sent to one or more peers. When a ZMQ_REQ socket is connected to a ZMQ_ROUTER socket, in addition to the routing id of the originating peer each message received shall contain an empty delimiter message part. Hence, the entire structure of each received message as seen by the application becomes: one or more routing id parts, delimiter part, one or more body parts. When sending replies to a ZMQ_REQ socket the application must include the delimiter part. Table 17.
