# Phoenix Pubsub Nats
Phoenix PubSub adapter based on Nats.
## Installation
If [available in Hex](https://hex.pm/docs/publish), the package can be installed
by adding `phoenix_pubsub_nats` to your list of dependencies in `mix.exs`:
```elixir
def deps do
[
{:phoenix_pubsub_nats, "~> 0.1.0"}
]
end
```
## Usage
An example usage (add this to your supervision tree):
```elixir
# application.ex
children = [
{
Phoenix.PubSub,
name: Phoenix.PubSubTest,
adapter: PhoenixPubsubNats,
connection: %{host: '127.0.0.1', port: 4222}
}
]
```
where `connection` is configured separately based on the `gnat`
[documentation](https://hexdocs.pm/gnat/readme.html).
Optional parameters:
* `serializer`: Used to convert messages to/from the underlying Nats system.
This library provides two implementations of the `Nats.Serializer`
serialization module, namely:
* `Nats.Serializer.Native`: Convert messages using Erlang's native serialization mechanism.
* `Nats.Serializer.Json`: Convert messages using Json format.
