Port the {.ffi.} wrapper to nim-ffi 0.2.0 (master). 0.2.0 is a breaking
redesign over 0.1.4: events move to a per-context multi-listener registry
(sds_add_event_listener / sds_remove_event_listener) fired via {.ffiEvent.}
emitters, and request/response/event marshalling switches from JSON to CBOR.
- libsds.nim: typed {.ffiEvent.} payloads replace the JSON event modules;
CBOR handles nesting, so unwrap returns a typed response again. The
retrieval-hint provider (a C function pointer, not CBOR-encodable) passes
its address as a uint64 via a {.ffi.} method that stores it in a
worker-thread threadvar.
- pin nim-ffi to master HEAD by commit. The lock version is kept a clean
semver ("0.2.0") on purpose: nimble's `#`-prefixed special version in the
lock breaks `nimble setup -l` (an unquoted `#` truncates the git path),
so only vcsRevision carries the commit.
- add the new transitive dep cbor_serialization to the lock and nix/deps.nix.
- regenerate libsds.h for the CBOR/registry ABI.

nim-sds
Nim implementation of the e2e reliability protocol.
Prerequisites
- Nix package manager
Quick start
git clone https://github.com/logos-messaging/nim-sds.git
cd nim-sds
# Build the shared library
nix build '.#libsds'
# Run tests
nix develop --command nimble test
Building
Desktop
nix build --print-out-paths '.#libsds'
Android
nix build --print-out-paths '.#libsds-android-arm64'
nix build --print-out-paths '.#libsds-android-amd64'
nix build --print-out-paths '.#libsds-android-x86'
nix build --print-out-paths '.#libsds-android-arm'
iOS
nix build --print-out-paths '.#libsds-ios'
Development shell
Enter the dev shell:
nix develop
Build using nimble tasks:
# Dynamic library (auto-detects OS)
nimble libsdsDynamicMac # macOS
nimble libsdsDynamicLinux # Linux
nimble libsdsDynamicWindows # Windows
# Static library
nimble libsdsStaticMac # macOS
nimble libsdsStaticLinux # Linux
nimble libsdsStaticWindows # Windows
Run tests:
nimble test
The built library is output to build/.
Android (without Nix)
Download the latest Android NDK:
cd ~
wget https://dl.google.com/android/repository/android-ndk-r27c-linux.zip
unzip android-ndk-r27c-linux.zip
Add to ~/.bashrc:
export ANDROID_NDK_ROOT=$HOME/android-ndk-r27c
export PATH=$ANDROID_NDK_ROOT/toolchains/llvm/prebuilt/linux-x86_64/bin:$PATH
Then build:
ARCH=arm64 nimble libsdsAndroid
| Architecture | Command |
|---|---|
| arm64 | ARCH=arm64 nimble libsdsAndroid |
| amd64 | ARCH=amd64 nimble libsdsAndroid |
| x86 | ARCH=x86 nimble libsdsAndroid |
The library is output to build/libsds.so.
Dependency management
Dependencies are managed by Nimble and pinned via nimble.lock.
To set up dependencies locally:
nimble setup -l
To update dependencies:
nimble lock
After updating nimble.lock, the Nix outputHash in nix/deps.nix must be recalculated
by running nix build and updating the hash from the error output.
