> Disclaimer: this is experiment to see channel based API for distributed queues. Channel technically is a function call that does not error out. So effectively sending to or reading from distributed queue through channel is _delaying_ or _buffering_ calls to distributied message broker. It is possible that this can lead to better performance and higher throughput. However, this project is more of an experiment of API design with goal to make workable solution with minimal code. Very likely you may want to use function based API in production.

* 100 LOC
* 30 _thousand_ RPS (send/receive individual message)
* 1.4 _million_ RPS (send/receive batch pipeline)
* graceful stop (no messages lost, unless error)
* integration test

```go
rdb := redis.NewClient(&redis.Options{Addr: "localhost:6379"})

// Alice
w := rchan.NewWriter[string](rdb, "my-queue", 10000, 10, 1, time.Millisecond*100)
w <- "hello world 🌏🤍✨"

// ... 🌏 ...

// Bob
r, _ := rchan.NewReader[string](rdb, "my-queue", 10000, 10, 1, time.Millisecond*100)
fmt.Println(<-r)
// Output: hello world 🌏🤍✨
```

## Appendix A: Paths Not Taken

### Single function that returns writer and reader channels
Some call-sites do not use reader at all.
Usually it is either only reader or writer, if you have both, you can use normal channel.
Returning both reader and writer causes to read from Redis List into anonymous reader channel that is not used.
It keeps data there up to buffer size and it is not processed by anyone.
So to keep logic simple, instantiate what you need — either reader or writer.
This also helps to avoid duplication of parameters of buffering for reader vs writer.

### Single channel return for reader
We need to tell reader goroutine that no more reads will ever be performed and send anything in channel back to Redis List.
For example, for graceful termination.
