weight-rs

A Rust library for weighted balancing algorithm.

It provides three weighted balancing (elect) algorithm. One is weighted balancing algorithm used by LVS. Another is smooth weighted balancing algorithm used by Nginx.

The LVS weighted round-robin scheduling is introduced at http://kb.linuxvirtualserver.org/wiki/Weighted_Round-Robin_Scheduling. The Nginx smooth weighted round-robin balancing algorithm is introduced at https://github.com/phusion/nginx/commit/27e94984486058d73157038f7950a0a36ecc6e35.

Using it is simple:

    use weighted_rs_wasm::{SmoothWeight, Weight};
    use std::collections::HashMap;

    let mut sw: SmoothWeight<&str> = SmoothWeight::new();
    sw.add("server1", 5);
    sw.add("server2", 2);
    sw.add("server3", 3);

    for _ in 0..100 {
        let s = sw.next().unwrap();
        println!("{}", s);
    }
