[zeromq-dev] why rtpapa.py example not running ?

[Emile Achadde]

Hello,

I am new in 0MQ.

I tried to run the example from there 
https://github.com/imatix/zguide2/blob/master/examples/Python/rtpapa.py

I did some corrections to adapt the code to the new 0Mq version.

I am running Debian 9.7 and Python 3.7.0

when run this code waits for something.

Could someone tell me what is wrong is the code below ?

Best regards,

Emile

the code is here:

# encoding: utf-8
#
#   Custom routing Router to Papa (ROUTER to REP)

#   Author: Jeremy Avnet (brainsik) <spork(dash)zmq(at)theory(dot)org>
#
# https://github.com/imatix/zguide2/blob/master/examples/Python/rtpapa.py
# added 'b' in setsockopt and send commands

import time
import zmq
import zhelpers

context = zmq.Context()
client = context.socket(zmq.ROUTER)
client.bind("ipc://routing.ipc")

worker = context.socket(zmq.REP)
worker.setsockopt(zmq.IDENTITY, b"A")
worker.connect("ipc://routing.ipc")

# Wait for sockets to stabilize
time.sleep(1)

client.send(b"A", zmq.SNDMORE)
client.send(b"address 3", zmq.SNDMORE)
client.send(b"address 2", zmq.SNDMORE)
client.send(b"address 1", zmq.SNDMORE)
client.send(b"", zmq.SNDMORE)
client.send(b"This is the workload")

# Worker should get just the workload
zhelpers.dump(worker)

# We don't play with envelopes in the worker
worker.send(b"This is the reply")

# Now dump what we got off the ROUTER socket...
zhelpers.dump(client)
