uds_dist - Distribution over Unix domain sockets
uds_dist — Erlang distribution over Unix domain sockets
I’ve published uds_dist 1.0.0 to Hex
It’s a custom -proto_dist implementation backed by the :socket library for Unix Domain sockets. My use case is pretty narrow. I often want my services to support a local-only remote shell without TCP and without EPMD. On Linux, abstract namespace sockets are supported so there’s no filesystem entry to clean up.
It was modelled on lib/kernel/examples/erl_uds_dist from OTP, but with :socket instead of gen_tcp, and distribution protocol v6 only.

gen_tcp can also use the socket module as a backend, and supports abstract namespace sockets.
I’m just saying. Cheers for the release!

I meant gen_tcp. Sorry
