Implementing JSON-RPC with SwiftNIO

on YouTube ↗18m

" summary

Implements JSON-RPC over TCP using SwiftNIO with a three-stage pipeline: JSON framing (delimiter \r\n), Foundation Codable encode/decode, and a request/response handler that queues promises to correlate calls and replies. Shows how framing uses a delimiter, how errors surface on decode, and that the client gets a future fulfilled on response. Demo controls four light bulbs via JSON-RPC and the commands successfully turn them on and off.
