# RPC
|
|
Minitel Remote Procedure Call Library for OpenOS
|
|
|
|
## API
|
|
In all instances, if *hostname* is replaced with *localhost*, an attempt will be made to call the registered procedure on the local machine.
|
|
|
|
### rpc.call(*hostname*, *name*, ...)
|
|
Call function *name* on remote host *hostname* with arguments ...
|
|
|
|
### rpc.proxy(*hostname*, *filter*)
|
|
Return a table containing the functions on *hostname* matching *filter*, which is a Lua pattern.
|
|
|
|
### rpc.register(*name*, *function*)
|
|
Registers *function* as the RPC call for *name* on the current host.
|
|
|
|
### rpc.allow(*fname*, *hostname*)
|
|
Adds *hostname* to the list of remote hosts allowed to execute the function *fname*.
|
|
|
|
## Access control
|
|
Access control is implemented by way of an "allow" list and a "deny" list. Any function lacking both lists will default to the function being available to all hosts.
|
|
|
|
Any entries in the 'allow' list for a function will disable access for any but those in the allow list.
|
|
|
|
Entries in the 'deny' list will result in the hosts in said list being denied, but other hosts are allowed. This will not override the 'allow' list.
|
|
|
|
## Variables
|
|
|
|
### rpc.port = 111
|
|
Port to use for RPC calls and registration.
|
|

|

### rpc.deny = {}
